Artist Beware:
So here I am outside the Library in Silverado just down the street from the Silverado Country Fair. I wife and kids have a booth. There is all kinds of art about but not much animation.
There is this cool Native American flute player named Warpony who uses feedback like Jimi. What does that have to do with animation? Nothing! But it has a lot to do with copyright and how artist get ripped off.
He just paid $300 to a site on the Internet to copyright his music CD. That is $250 above the real cost. Not bad 10 minutes worth of work. Artist, get thee to a California Lawyers for the Arts event and stop the rip offs.
