Section 107 identifies criticism, commentary, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, and research as examples of activities that may qualify as fair use. Section 107 also calls for consideration of the following four factors in evaluating a question of fair use: (1) purpose and character of the use, including whether the use is of a commercial nature or is for nonprofit educational purposes; (2) the nature of the copyrighted work; (3) the amount and substantiality of the portion used in relation to the copyrighted work as a whole; and (4) the effect of the use upon the potential market for or value of the copyrighted work.
In response to Section 107 of the Copyright Act, this video, by all accounts, falls under fair use guidelines. Specifically, the video critiques and comments upon the original work(s) by adding new information, insights, and understandings. Moreover, the video (1) is intended for educational purposes and is free to the public, without the expectation of financial benefit; (2) may be considered “transformative” since it adds something new to the original work(s) and is not a substitute for said work(s); (3) incorporates a small quantity of the copyrighted material that is not considered the “heart” of the work(s); and (4) does not deprive the copyright owner of income or undermine a new or potential market for the copyrighted work.
