 RIP: A Remix Manifesto est un très bon documentaire sur les problèmes de droits d'auteur à l'époque d'internet. Le film se penche particulièrement sur la complexité du "sample" et le remixe de travaux existants face au copyright. Le documentaire est en libre téléchargement à l'adresse http://www.ripremix.com/ et vous avez la possibilité de faire une donation du montant de votre choix.
Grett Gaylor, le réalisateur, est aussi le créateur de http://www.opensourcecinema.org/ où il est possible d'acquérir les rushes du film et de les remixer à sa façon.
Grett Gaylor sera présent à la conférence sur l'Open Vidéo au côtés d'autres réals, notament Henrik Moltke (Good Copy Bad Copy) et Jamie King (STEAL THIS FILM). SinopsysIn RiP: A remix manifesto, Web activist and filmmaker Brett Gaylor explores issues of copyright in the information age, mashing up the media landscape of the 20th century and shattering the wall between users and producers.The film's central protagonist is Girl Talk, a mash-up musician topping the charts with his sample-based songs. But is Girl Talk a paragon of people power or the Pied Piper of piracy? Creative Commons founder, Lawrence Lessig, Brazil's Minister of Culture Gilberto Gil and pop culture critic Cory Doctorow are also along for the ride.A participatory media experiment, from day one, Brett shares his raw footage at opensourcecinema.org, for anyone to remix. This movie-as-mash-up method allows these remixes to become an integral part of the film. With RiP: A remix manifesto, Gaylor and Girl Talk sound an urgent alarm and draw the lines of battle.Which side of the ideas war are you on?
Professor Matthew Soar at Concordia University in Montréal, as a contribution to the Open Source Cinema Project, teamed with his students and spent what he describes as "three very intensive weeks rotoscoping a concert video" of Girl Talk. They were, he says, inspired by Bob Sabiston's digital rotoscoping (Snack and Drink, Waking Life, A Scanner Darkly), and by Christine Harold's OurSpace: Resisting the Corporate Control of Culture, a textbook used for his communications course.

Hi Albert, No idea when the camera will be released, they said end of 2010 but they are usually delays... I would also consider what the other brands are baking ;-) Cheers
Thanks for information!
Any idea on when will this be officially released? I'm now having the hots for this new Panasonic camcorder. I hope this will be available on some camcorder rentals. Idaho Falls is where I usually rent camcorders and stuff and I'm looking forward to see this on their shelves once it gets released so I can try it out. It seems to be a great camcorder for independent filmmakers.
