Publishing Embedded and Royalty Free (RF) Assets
Use Case
John Audubon (pseudonym), an ornithologist and freelance photographer, wishes to publish a blog on birds around the world containing his journal posts (Blog) with an embedded window or widget containing his rare photographs and videos (Media Assets). Audubon hopes to educate readers, connect with other scientists and bird observers, and attract customers interested in licensing his Media Assets or buying his self-published book (Book) entitled Migratory Birds and Virus Transmission.
Audubon hosts his content on a content server, watermarks his Media Assets before publishing, and creates a clear copyright notice on his Blog, Media Assets and Book. Audubon takes the extra precaution of registering his contact information as the author and creator of the Blog and its Media Assets in a searchable database run by a copyright registry which provides him with unique identifiers for himself and each Media Asset. His book promotion copyright page include an ISBN number providing publisher contact information.
Audubon would like to include code snippets embedded in the HTML5 markup for each of his blog offerings. How can ODRL help Audubon build these expressions and prohibitions?
