EOC week 9: Letter of Permission
The letters I have chosen were basically what type of
letters I would need if I were to need depending on what type of film I would
be using in my film. Film making is one of the hardest to get permissions for,
not because you have to get your permission, but by the sheer number of how
many you have to get. An hour and a half long film might have over 50 different
items with in the film that might need permission to release to the rights to.
My field is film and I found that making music videos might be in my future so
I picked a letter that would pertain to what I would need in my future. Other
letters of permission might need to be approved by the state and there would be
a number of guidelines to follow in the process of filming. It will be a day to
remember when I have to fill out my first legit permission slip for filming. With
some more experience using the cameras here at the arts institute, until I
graduate I will be ready to film anything. I would like to work with some
professionals first to see how the process is actually done correctly first
though, just so I don’t run into problems in the future. But other then that, things
should get real interesting after I graduate. One aspect is learning the 3D
modeling to be able to make my own ideas become a reality. Then be able to
create ideas that corporate industries would find appealing. One step at a time
I guess :)

Week 8 Eoc : Bratz Vs Mattel
After a long 7 year legal battle between MGA entertainment and Mattel, the courts finally ruled in MGA's favor. According to California Employment Lawyers Published by Howard Law, "MGA subsequently claimed that Mattel gained wrongful access to toy fairs
with fake passes in order to steal trade secrets about the Bratz dolls,
and then concealed the evidence of such actions." A Federal Jury found that Mattel did not have the rights to Bratz doll design and was ordered to pay up 89 million in damages to the small MGA company. It a more recent report on Reuters.com, "Mattel defeats Bratz doll maker antitrust lawsuit",
" Mattel Inc has won the dismissal of an antitrust lawsuit brought by bitter rival MGA Entertainment Inc that accused the toy giant of trying to monopolize the U.S. market for fashion dolls." My thoughts on this issue are that it seems that the designer wanted to be in more control and probably wanted a better apy desinging his own toy line. I dont think its right that Bratz making a name for themselves give Mattel the right to start a legal battle. If the designer was still working for Mattel, maybe there would be a case, but since he left Mattel, its not like he was selling Barbie like products.

Week 8 Boc : Progress on Final Project
Final project is not to far off into the future at this point, and I have to start writing my questions for the lawyer of our choosing. Last week I asked my mom if she has a record of the name of the lawyer that I worked with before, but she didn't remember which was fine. We established on finding a better lawyer for this project. Since my mom works for the New York City Transit Authority, she has a office in her building full of different lawyers and she said, if you want, I will help you pick a lawyer there to help with these questions. Basically at this point now I just have to write the questions, then put it all together. Hopefully today I will have enough time to work on the questions.
As for the progress of class assignments, I am pretty much caught up. During this quarter I only missed one Eoc, and I'm catching up on my tweets other then that everything seems to be okay.

Week 5 EOC: Patent Trolls
These
days, it’s very hard to take a side on the matter of patent trolls. Some feel
they have a right to do it. "Every plaintiff who brings one of these
cases is a private attorney general who is doing a service to the United
States, and I'm doing the same," says Mr. Stauffer, a lawyer in Roseland,
N.J. Now that they feel they have the right to challenge these patent
numbers, companies are using now have to prepare. "These cases have forced
companies to spend time, money and resources investigating claims where there really
isn't any injury to anybody," says Chicago lawyer Jason C. White. We all
know these days that China is distributing a lot of merchandise to American stores
but we also know how sneaky the Chinese can be. "You're paying the hostage
fee," says Mark Willard who basically found a old patent number on a remolded
rake. Many companies are being affected by their intellectual property. An Intellectual
property lawyer named Robert Koch, is
advising most of his clients to refrain from marking patent numbers visibly on
the product itself. This alone should help control the amount of cases being submitted.
