Disclaimer: All of the sources included in this remix adhere to established guidelines on Creative Rights. Materials used are in the Public Domain or licensed through Creative Commons. Items included in remix that fall under copyright protection follow established guidelines on Fair Use, especially those published in the “Documentary Filmmaker’s Guidelines for Best Practices in Fair Use,” which include:
a. Attribute where the clip came from (either on screen or in the credits)
b. Try to take material from a range of sources not just one source
c. Make sure you are using only as much as absolutely necessary to make your point
d. Not include quoted material merely to avoid the cost or inconvenience of shooting equivalent footage. (Statement of Best Practices)
Materials labeled “Public Domain” are “creative works for which copyright protection has expired, or, for pre-1978 works, works that lost copyright protection because of failure to comply with a legal formality (such as registration, or publication with a copyright notice). A public domain work may be used freely, in any form, without permission from the creator. Public domain works generally include those published before 1923, as well as works produced by the U.S. government (and certain other governments)” (Digital Citizen) http://www.digitalcitizenshiped.com/FAQ.aspx
Materials labeled with “Creative Commons” license most often hold “Share Alike” and “Attribution” CC licenses, which means“[Attribution-ShareAlike: This license lets others remix, tweak, and build upon your work even for commercial purposes, as long as they credit you and license their new creations under the identical terms. This license is often compared to “copyleft” free and open source software licenses. Attribution — You must give appropriate credit, provide a link to the license, and indicate if changes were made. You may do so in any reasonable manner, but not in any way that suggests the licensor endorses you or your use.].” Unless otherwise indicated, these are the CC licenses the source materials hold.
Materials labeled “Fair Use” appear to be subject to copyright projection but the use here passes the test for Fair Use, which means [“1. The unlicensed use "transforms" the material taken from the copyrighted work by using it for a different purpose than that of the original, [and not] just repeated the work for the same intent and value as the original. 2. The material taken [is] appropriate in kind and amount, considering the nature of the copyrighted work and of the use.”] (National Council for Teachers of English, “Code of Best Practices in Fair Use for Media Literacy Education” (Adopted by NCTE Executive Council, November 2008).

Credits and Creative Rights
Because my digital story is a highly personal one, I found images that I owned and produced myself to tell the story. The retrieval of the images took me on a journey of memories and emotion. Interestingly, as I found the images, they took on a spirit of their own and told the story for me...and, although my finished
product is a short one, it is one that I am proud of and one which I will continue to perfect. Like good writers, digital storytellers must also feel the pressure to revise, revise, revise!
