1) Copyright is a form of protection provided to authors of "original works of authorship", which can include a wide variety of intellectual properties, such as pictures and words, works of art (paintings, sculpture, photographs, etc.) literary works, (books, song lyrics, poetry) as well as choreography, VIDEOTAPES, WEB PAGES and other forms of creative expression.

Copyright protects the author's original creative expression as contained in the work but DOES NOT usually extend to any idea, procedure, process, method, system, discovery, name or short title or slogan.

You can protect your videotape by registering it for copyright protection. You can also register any expressive logo designs.

For more information, visit: www.copyrightpros.com.

2) Trademark protects company names, product names and slogans and symbols used in business. (e.g., company names like: MCDONALD'S, or FORD; product names like BIG MAC or EXPLORER; slogans like WE LOVE TO SEE YOU SMILE, or THE ONLY WAY TO FLY; and designs like the "GOLDEN ARCHES" and even sometimes color schemes like : Brown for UPS courier service or Pink for SWEET 'N LOW.

Prior to seeking to register a trademark, a search should be conducted to determine whether the name, or a similar name is already in use by someone else.

YOU MAY CHOOSE TO SEEK REGISTRATION OF YOUR NEW NAME, DESIGN, OR BUSINESS PROCESS IN ORDER TO PROTECT IT FROM COPYCATS OR INFRINGERS. REGISTRATION SHOULD BE SOUGHT IN ANY COUNTRY WHERE YOU DO BUSINESS OR WHERE YOU EXPECT INFRINGEMENT WILL OCCUR.
