FLASH: Copyrights

[Cheri Harder]

Where would be a good source of information regarding copyright of cartoon

characters and recognizable cartoon character sounds?  If I were to draw

Mickey Mouse should I credit Disney?  If I were to "trace" someone elses

drawing of Mickey Mouse, who do I credit?  Reason I ask is I made a fun

demonstration of the "stretching" scale effect using a traced drawing (not

my drawing) of Warner Bros. chartoon characters and don't wish to get in

trouble by publishing it as a demo.  I don't know if I just need to give

credit to Warner Bros, state its purpose as educational and not-for-profit,

or not use it at all....Guidelines anywhere?  I really need to get more info

on this type of thing especially since my own artistic talent is NIL (or is

that Null?)  :0)


TIA
