Summary
Many legal experts argue that copyright law is dying, that artists and entertainers need a new approach to intellectual property protection. Patenting Art & Entertainment provides an answer.
This book shows that patent law can protect the methods and processes used to create art and entertainment -- as well as the design and appearance of products. Included are examples in the fields of:
- painting
- graphic art
- music
- architecture
- film
- furniture design
- and much more
Co-authored by Gregory Aharonian and Richard Stim, the book shows how to:
- document the creation of your art and entertainment inventions
- apply for and obtain a design patent
- get a utility patent
- do a patent search
Patenting Art & Entertainment provides in-depth (but concise) information of all aspects of this cutting-edge method. It covers how the creation of arts and entertainment became formal sciences, the limitations of copyrights, how the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office handles such applications -- and more.
