Copyright as Cartoon

Not by Disney in any sense of the word. Assistant Professor Eric Faden (of English and film studies at Bucknell University) produced this video with help from seven of his students (over eight months). Essentially copyright is mocked (and explained) by using over 400 cuts from 27 different Disney films. Hugely popular, it has been downloaded 145,000 times since last Friday when it was first posted on YouTube. It has been reported that Mr. Faden has retained Stanford University law professors in case Disney sue him for copyright infringement. I’m not sure whether I would be breaking copyright by displaying it directly here, so am linking to it instead.
