Week 11: Final Evaluation
During this class I have learned a lot on how to protect myself and my work that I am going to be producing more of. This class covered so much of the book that we bought and that book was just so useful and full of information to help me through the class and with the final project. Usually I would turn my books back in to the store for cash, but I think that it would be smart if I held onto the book for future reference. The first half of the quarter we learned about patents and how they work. We learned how to file for a patent, how long it takes, and how long you have the rights to that patent before other companies can start making that same type of product. It was very interesting to learn even though I know I will not be using patents really. In my field of graphic design I will be using a lot more of what we learned about for the second half of the quarter, which was trademarks and copyrights. I wrote my final project mainly on copyrights so that I know how to protect my work and not accidently take someone else’s work and get into trouble.
I like the way this class was set up and I liked the final project even though it was very frustrating at times. To go out into the real world, find a lawyer who will take some time to answer some questions of yours just as a person who happened to be a professional in his industry. I like the way that Pinto teaches not just this class, but his other classes too. I know how interesting his other classes can be so it was kind of hard getting used to so much of the text book but it was all good because Pinto made it interesting and gave us real life examples of law suits and cases that have happened in the past with major companies. I know I have learned so much from this class I have worked very hard in this class to complete everything that I could. I think that I deserve an A in this class.

EOC Week 10: Robert Kearns
Hollywood did a very good job at changing the entire emotional setting of the movie. Robert Kearns in the movie was shy almost and was all about his gadgets and wanted his kids to help him and learn what he knows. But in real life he was a miserable man and he lost everything because of this case. He spent around two decades on this case worked himself old to get thirty million dollars and still be lonely and old . he died of cancer in 2005 at the age of 77.

EOC Week 9:First Amendment and the News
i feel like the masque should not be built by ground zero in New York. i understand that it is a religious issue and they have the rights to. but it is just not right to build it so close. september 11 was only 9 years ago. that was not long ago it is still fresh in peoples minds and having this center so close is just not right. they say they are building it to bring people together, and they have already started out in a bad way. if they wanted to bring people in the community together they should have put it somewhere else and started out by going out into the public to see how everyone feels about having it in their community instead of just assuming that it will be okay to build this masque.
5. Your own argument and opinions.
Over the last few weeks in this class, I have worked very hard at completing this project. Calling lawyer after lawyer and getting extremely frustrated with most of them, then finally going to my main source for everything, my dad to help me out. He knows everyone and I knew he would have a lawyer to save the day. I should have went to him first but of course I wanted to do it on my own but in the end it all worked out. Even though I finally found a lawyer to help, he only wanted to help for a few minutes so I had to make the best of what I could with what I have. This class was very helpful and I will be holding on to the book for future review because I know I will be needing it with the designs and work that I will be producing.
4. Rule of law
I thought it was interesting that if I have a series of work I can save myself the trouble and money of copyrighting each one, and just copyright them all under one title. Although if someone wants to use and pay for my art work they can ask me to license one, two, or all of the series to them for their use only. If I find out that they are making money on my design, that is infringement and they have broken the law. As the artist there are exclusive copyright rights that I have access to such as “the entire bundle of rights that a copyright owner is exclusively entitled to exercise under the copyright laws. These rights consist of: the right to reproduce the work, the right to prepare derivative works, the right to distribute copies of the work, the right to perform the work, and the right to display the work.” (P, C, &T pg. 242)
If someone wants to use my design they much have an exclusive license, “which must be in writing, is a valid contract in which a copyright owner authorizes another person or entity to exclusively exercise one of more of the rights that belong to the copyright owner.” (P, C, &T pg. 242) This makes me happy knowing that I can protect everything that I do and control who wants my design and who I say is okay to use my design.

3. Reasoning of the Law
I wish I could have been able to talk with my lawyer a little bit more and really figure out all of my questions. He talked quite a bit about intellectual property which “refers to products of the human intellect that have commercial value that receive legal protection.” (P, C, &T pg. 4) This makes total sense as to why you would try and protect it because you want to make your own money, you don’t want someone else making money off of your idea. Plagiarism will happen, and it is only going to increase because of the internet and well frankly I feel like there aren’t too many things that someone hasn’t come up with already. Coming up with a new completely original design is very difficult, you must some how find out if what you are using has already been used in a different way or even in the same way.
“Copyrights are granted for original creative expressions produced by authors, composers, artist, designers, programmers, and similar creative individuals. Copyright law does not protect ideas ad facts, only the manner in which those ideas and facts express.” (P, C, &T pg. 5)
“Trademark law protects the rights of businesses who use distinctive names, designs, logos, slogans, or other signifiers to identify and distinguish their products and services.” (P, C, &T pg. 5)

2. The Questions:
1. If I lose inspiration and go online to help me and I end up using more of a design than I intended, but changed it enough to make it my own can get in trouble for plagiarism?
“You will have to totally make it your own concept and design to be in the clear, even though it is on the web does not mean that it is in the public domain. That design could be copyrighted so you always have to be careful of what you use in your art work.”
2. What if it was my work being taken on the internet, what recourse do I have to claim that it is my own work?
“Protecting your intellectual property has always been a difficult thing to do, and the internet has only complicated things. I hate to say it but if you find something of yours that has been used by someone else, the best thing you can do is get mad and be flattered, because taking any legal actions against this person will probably cost you more than you will gain from the piece itself. But if you have a copyright on it, you can lose that copyright if you don’t act on someone stealing it from you.”
3. If I sign a non-disclosure agreement, can I use the skills I acquired at this job to do free lance work?
“Technically no, but you can always find a way around it. If you can use a trade secret that only that company knows about, then it is going to be a little difficult to hide. But if you use the skills you have already and entwine them with a little bit of theirs but still making it your own. Then you are not in violation on the disclosure agreement.”
4. If I sign a non-compete clause, how do I go about revising that so the company and I can be comfortable with the signed contract?
“That decision has to be made by you. What you could do is, before you sign it, carefully read it, possibly bring it to me and we will look over it together so you know exactly what you are signing. Most people don’t know what they are actually signing, and then they get laid off and can’t work for a year. You can always figure out a way to change it in some way to benefit you.”
5. If I come up with a design on my own, nothing for work, can I copyright it to call it my own, or do I have to tell my company about it because I work for them? Who owns it?
“
6. If I break a copyright law, can I go to jail?
“It depends on how far it has gone, in the first act you have not committed a crime, and you have committed a tort. If the person who has the copyright takes you to court and you still are violating him copyright then you have committed a crime and can pay a hefty fine and maybe jail time.”
7. How much money do you charge to read a contract and give me advise or interpreted it for me?
“I charge by the hour at two hundred and thirty dollars.”
8. If I have a series of designs, is it better to copyright each one individually or should I copyright the whole series?
“You can copyright the series under one title and still have complete control of your work. Someone can ask you to license out only one or two pieces from that series and they will not have access to the other works in that series. At that point you should contact a lawyer to seek help, so you don’t get screwed out of money waiting for you.”
9. If my company gave me specific guidelines to make an advertisement and those guidelines infringe on someone else’s property can I get into trouble?
“The party that claims to a mark may file a lawsuit against another user of the same or similar mar to prevent further use of the mark and collect money damage for the wrongful use.” (P, C, &T pg. 419)
“You will have to totally make it your own concept and design to be in the clear, even though it is on the web does not mean that it is in the public domain. That design could be copyrighted so you always have to be careful of what you use in your art work.”

1. Legal Authority:
I made contact with a lawyer named Scott Weide, I found him through my dad. I know many different lawyers and judges, but all practice either business law or criminal law. I wanted to contact an actual lawyer who practices copyrights and trademarks. I also looked up a few other lawyers that were too busy to make time to talk to me for a few minutes. Some I didn’t even hear their voice, only their secretary. When I called Mr. Weide it took me a while to get through his secretary to actually talk to him. He was very pushy and was very busy he told me. I could only ask him a few questions before he had to hang up with me to deal with clients that were actually paying him. So I am trying to work with what he left me with, and see if I can back up what he has talked about with what the book says, or if you said something different than what the book has to offer.

EOC Week 8: Legal Questions
1. If I lose inspiration and go online and use someone else’s design, more than I intended to. Will I be safe from a lawsuit if I changed it enough so it isn’t exactly the same? What recourse do I have if the roles are reversed, if my work is the work being stolen?
2. If I’m asked to sign a non-disclosure agreement. Can I use the skills that I developed in the company to earn money through free lance work?
3. As a designer working for an employer. Can part of a design from that company be considered a trade secret that I’m prohibited from using any work that was not solicited from within the firm?
4. If I come up with an original idea during employment with a company, who owns the rights to it, myself or the company? Is there any way I can make it my own to sell to others?
5. How much do you charge to read a contract and advise/interpret it for me?
6. What if a non-compete or non-disclosure clause in a contract is disguised and I don’t know what it is really talking about, how can I be aware of that before I sign the document?
7. If I have a series of designs that I have developed, is it better to copyright each one individual or should I do it as a whole?
8. If my company gave me stricted guidelines to go by for an advertisement for their company and I didn’t know it was taken from their competitor can the competitor sew me personally or would they go after the company?
9. What rights do I retain when using the companies software?
10. If I rough out a design on school/company software but finish on my own professional software at what point does it become a creation and what are my rights?

EOC Week 7: What Legal Issues Concern You Most?
What legal issues concern me most?
I am concerned with making more jobs for Las Vegans. The economy is really hurting right now and huge businesses are going bankrupt and closing down. How do you think the small businesses like my dad’s construction company and his plumbing company? He has had to put many people out of a job that have been working for him for twenty one years because he has had to do everything he could to keep them open.
I also take in interest in knowing about the gay and lesbian rights in America. I went to school in the Bay Area and I was there last year when they were protesting Prop. 8. It was a huge deal and I know that were weren’t the only state that was protesting for it. Gays and lesbians should have the right just like any other couple in America to marry under the law. I think that it’s ridiculous that they wouldn’t have that right. They say that they are violating the law but really if you look at straight couples of today’s society the divorce rate is higher than ever. They don’t respect it and the gay and lesbian couples and community respect it because it is a big deal to have a right like that. Or at least I think so.
I am also interested in design copyrights, patents and trademarks because I will be trying to design new products, new logos, names, colors, tag lines, etc. and trying to make all of those brand new and original is very hard to do. So having someone to help figure out what all the ins and outs are around those laws would be very helpful.

EOC Week 6: Illicit. What do you think?
Illicit drugs, purses, shoes, watches, jewelry, and even humans are a huge problem within not just our country but our entire world. People all over have made not billions but trillions of dollars producing and selling these items.
Coming out of Cuba, Africa, Panama, and other places across the world they make fake pharmaceutical drugs that they distribute to people all over the world. They put it on the internet for a discounted price and sell it as that brand. They make them by adding different components that are not even in the real drug, and they don’t put any of the real components of the real drug in their fakes. They use glue to make it stick together, they put glaze in it so its shinny and they use the dye that they use for street paint to dye the pill the color of their choice. The drugs that have come out of not just this country but others too, have not only made people sick from taking them, but have actually killed people. The makers do not care what happened to the people that have bought them, all they want is the money they is being given to them so they can support their families.
Purses mainly coming out of China produce jobs, food on the table, and money for the people that are having a hard time finding a job, which is everywhere because China is over populated. They have factories that are filled with people just pumping out purse after purse. They are given the fabric and a sewing machine and are told to make as many as they can out of what they give them. To ship the fabric safer they wait to print the logo on the fabric until they get it to where they are making it. They have they metal stamps that they get shipped separately and this simple process makes the purses quadruple in price, which is ridiculous. They make them so fast that they have nowhere to store them. They get mass orders and ship them all over the world, like in America, Italy, Greece, Mexico and many more other places.
Although we think those fake sunglasses, purses, shoes and other fashion wear are harmless to buy, there have been many killings over this and they have also started smuggling other illegal drugs with them. Once they start doing that there is no reason why they can’t throw in a few people to help make the products or worse drug women up with heroin and sell them to other countries for human sex trafficking which is something young women like myself fear.

EOC Week 3: Jeopardy
Building a Jeopardy game for homework is a good way to learn the material that the teacher is trying to provide to you. In the process of building and putting together this game, I was instructed to go through one hundred and ten pages of definitions to get the answers to my questions. I have to pick four different topics to tell you the answers to. It starts with one hundred dollars being the easiest description going down the line to five hundred dollars being the hardest description. So far I have patents, fees, claims, and random which I have to change, I just haven’t found anything better yet. During this process I have learned some of the definitions of the words that I am sure I will be using more of in the next few years.
If you are not familiar with the game show on TV I will explain it for you. On TV they usually have three players that are competing but in my class we will have a few different teams that have multiple players on one team. So in class the creator of the game gets up in front of the class and reads the answers as they are picked by the players. If they answer right they receive the point and move on or if they don’t answer right one of the other teams has a chance to answer the question to receive the points. Whoever has the most points at the end wins. It’s a fun game that is also educational.
Here are a couple examples of what I have put together.
Answer: An application may be changed in response to an initial rejection by the USPTO.
Question: What is an Amendment?
Answer: Fees that must be paid to file a patent form with the USPTO.
Question: Application filling fee.

ECO Week 2: What do you think of Lawyers?
Lawyers are intense people and most are intimidating. Throughout my life my father owning his own business has come across many lawyers and even judges that have become part of our family because we know them so well. I hear people say that they hate lawyers and I can see why even though I don’t feel the same way. Yea, they cost a lot of money and they know that you need them so they can do that, but if you have a good lawyer it will be plenty worth the pay.
My sister is in law school right now and dealing with her sometimes can be a pain. She is very good at making her argument and she never lets me have the last say. It’s really a drag when they are in your family and they like to argue.
The only time I have tried to deal with a lawyer was when I was sixteen years old. I was driving on the I-15 going north and I got pulled over for speeding and I crossed the white line or something like that. So needless to say the cop gave me a ticket. When the cop came back to the car to give me the ticket I was in tears, he said it’s just a ticket and I said yea but I am terrified to tell my dad that I got my first ticket so fast. So I thought I would be slick and go to one of those lawyers that tell you that they take care of it and the ticket gets reduced to a parking ticket. I think it was the day before my seventeenth birthday was when the lawyer sent some kind of thank you for choosing them. Well my dad opened my mail because he saw that it was from a lawyer to me and he wondered why, just like any parent would. Well, I got in big trouble and I have to call and cancel everything with them. It sucked. So after that I stuck with my dad’s friends to help me out with all my other tickets that I have received.

Voice
Hello.
My name is Christina Cassaro; I am a Graphic Designer and a Photographer. Design interests me because it is a way to express myself without having to stand up and say anything. And! I love that. Putting my name onto something beautiful that hopefully the WORLD will see makes me successful because I will want to keep producing what make me feel the happiest, although it maybe not be the easiest.
Photography is something I like to also do for fun and in my personal life. In spite of the fact that I also market that as part of my profession to show others what I have seen, and where I have been.
I am designing and working my way through life doing something that I find very interesting. I have worked hard to achieve my goals in life and I will keep working, designing, capturing moments in life, and exploring. Every day that I work on a project I learn something new or gain new tools and knowledge to succeed. When learning, I put that knowledge toward my interests to try to make something that no one has done before, which is very hard to do. I try to catch people’s attention by being risky, not knowing how the people are going to react is very exciting for me.
My goal is to leave the place that I am living now, which is Las Vegas, and move to Los Angeles where I can have more opportunities to become a Graphic Designer, to be a part of a company that is very successful only to branch off and make my own company.
My name is Christina Cassaro; I am a Graphic Designer and a Photographer. Design interests me because it is a way to express myself without having to stand up and say anything. And! I love that. Putting my name onto something beautiful that hopefully the WORLD will see makes me successful because I will want to keep producing what make me feel the happiest, although it maybe not be the easiest.
Photography is something I like to also do for fun and in my personal life. In spite of the fact that I also market that as part of my profession to show others what I have seen, and where I have been.
