YouTube, Music, Copyright, Compensation and More Importantly Fair Treatment of the Artists and their Property.

Los Angeles, CA—YouTube has changed entertainment and news in a big way. It’s brought the true democratization of mass media allowing virtually anyone to create, and broadcast whatever he or she desires. Saying that, there are those issues related to what content gets special behind the scenes promotion by YouTube. There is a lot of trash mixed in with some stunning content. YouTube is also a training ground for those that want to shape and hone their skills.

Music lovers routinely steal or borrow music content created by others for their video’s soundtracks. This has created copyright pandemonium. However it’s not really a bad thing for the artists. In fact new exposure of forgotten music of decades gone by has boosted legitimate sales!

I’m a chronic music thief! I do it because I fail to see the harm and I don’t get punished. More importantly I need great music for the videos I create. There is copyright free material but it’s really lame in most cases.

I’ve become addicted to camera drones and sharing my incredible videos with friends and strangers alike. I can either do a voiceover or add music to the soundtrack. Drone video was made for exceptional music. I have to find and borrow music based on type and length so my videos become enjoyable.

Right now YouTube compensates artists through shared advertising revenue. However my numerous friends in Europe are blocked from my videos because of compensation issues.

I say these issues must be worked out for art’s sake! I’d be willing to pay a reasonable fee to insure my videos are seen everywhere in the civilized world. I don’t mind the advertising provided it’s fair to the music artists.

Below are some of the drone videos where I placed “borrowed” music. It’s my hope that viewers will be encouraged to legitimately purchase those songs for their music various devices.

A 40 Caliber Nightmare Is Caught On Tape.

So you’re confident that that .40 caliber S&W service round will keep you safe. Maybe you’ll have second thoughts after you see this video. One hot summer night in 1994 Tempe and Mesa Arizona police were involved in a pursuit with this suspect who ran into a stranger’s apartment to hide after being shot TWICE in the chest. He was shirtless and you can see the blood pumping out of those two wounds. What’s really frightening is just how agile this fellow is as he struts to the ambulance. If he was not handcuffed and had a knife or a gun, ask yourself if he could still hurt you, your partner or a hostage? If your jurisdiction demands that officers carry either the 9MM or the .40 Caliber S&W it’s time to show this video to your bosses and lobby to have the .45 ACP round authorized. The switch may well reduce the screaming by self-appointed community activists about how many rounds police had to use on a suspect. The really talented and courageous video journalist, Karen Ke...

The origin of the feature film, COME FRIDAY…

CLick On the pictures to see full size versions. Long ago there was a young lady I had the hots for in a big way (Yes, I know that hots is not a word). She was pretty, incredibly bright, and had some real elegance about her. She had a love for children and basic kindness that you don’t often see in someone her age. I met her parents and could understand she came from a much more stable home than mine. I was raised by a single, welfare mom and suddenly found myself way out-classed. For whatever reasons things did not workout they way I had hoped. Sadly for me, we went on our separate ways. From time to time I’d run into this lady in various places where our job had taken us. Whenever this happened my heart would skip a beat or two. I left my hometown Chicago, and moved to Arizona where I founded my detective agency. As a private eye and soon a TV news producer too, my career took me to the highest profile criminal events in Arizona and throughout the country. There’s no question that ...
