Anime: the abridged series
|
|
A new pop culture pastime has been to edit existing popular animated television shows, cutting out most of the content of the episode or subsequent season and removing the original voices and script, replacing them with their own. This is usually to exaggerate character or plot flaws and inconsistencies as well as making references to movies, actors, television shows, books, comics, products, companies, real world events, political figures and other various pop culture references. This is a more amateur form of creativity, allowing those who create these abridged shows to express themselves without being professional animators or artists. Most attempts at abridging will be titled in this way follow "show being abridged" + " the abridged series" Copyright Infringement The action of "abridging" published animated content violates international copyright laws as it makes use of animated content from those shows without permissions. Fair use provisions of the copyright law allow for limited copying or distribution of published works without the author's permission in some cases. Examples of fair use of copyrighted materials include quotation of excerpts in a review or critique, or copying of a small part of a work by a teacher or student to illustrate a lesson.
