The Copyright chapter is the “Kindle sample” so you can watch that ahead of time to see if the whole class might be of interest!

The class is short enough to watch if one is not familiar with these topics. The chapters list shows it will cover copyright, trademark, and how it works when working with others. It ends with a Q&A session.

Meditation homework: I held the camera, you pressed the shutter button, we used Mary’s custom camera settings, Joe recommended taking the picture, Ramani owns the camera, Thuy owns the lens, and Jose suggested the framing. Who owns the image? 😉

Given the runtime, it will air three times in full during the free-streaming window.
