How do I ascertain whether a vintage novel is in the public domain? Is the trademark I've invented for my production company available? What about copyright and trademark rights overseas? If I upload my film to YouTube, do I give up any rights?Bill Seiter and Ellen Seiter answer these questions and countless others while also demystifying the fundamental principles of intellectual property.
