Unit 43, Task 5 – P3

When having a source of media there is a few things that you will have to be aware of. This is includes plagiarism, permission of the use of issues, and copy right. Plagiarism is the practice of taking someone else's work or ideas and passing them off as one's own. Plagiarism is illegal as it isn’t your own, it commonly happens at school or in the work place, and can have severe consequences. When making a media source you have to gain permission on the images that you use if they have been created by someone else. Copy right is the exclusive and assignable legal right, given to the originator for a fixed number of years, to print, publish, perform, film, or record literary, artistic, or musical material. Copy right is a way to make sure that the creator of a media source gets the credit for their own work and no one else can take it as their own, this is commonly used among celebrities and mostly singers when  it comes to their music. YouTube uses copy right as there are millions of people who upload videos as it is a public website.
