I believe that Jesse was just helping people out, we was nit making money, he was not making a name for himself, he simply was tinkering with something in his field. What the RIAA did was absurd, and they should not be able to do anything as long as the person is not making any money.
Just like we spoke of in class, a student using copyrighted materials, and is using them for educational uses or for the aid of the public, should not be public. Jesse was simply broadening his experience in his field. It is the same as us using any Youtube video or music, yes we borrow it, but only for educational purposes and not to make money. Once we want to start making money, we understand that we need to be creating our own works of art from scratch and i believe that Jesse knew this as well. If he knew this would of happened, he would of asked himself, why? All he has done is fool around with other peoples things and put them together and made them better in order to help out his fellow students at school.
As for the lawsuit, i believe Jesse did the right thing, because even if did win, all he had was a piece of paper, but now, he gave in, but he speaks to the world about the things that companies will do just because you are using their services or products.
Big heads up to Jesse for doing the right thing and telling the world his story and raising awareness.

Best of the Best- Remix Project
For my Remix Project, i chose to create the "Best of the Best" sequence of 2 pictures and 1 video. For my first picture i chose to recreate a penalty shot in soccer. The vue is from behind the ball, but what the remix is, is that the hexagons in the ball have been replaced with jerseys from some of the best teams and players from professional soccer. I also took the background of the picture myself.
For my second Remix picture, i chose to create a side view of one end of a basketball court in which there are 7 different players from the NBA that have made a name for themselves. These shots are either the top ten players in the NBA or a shot of them doing some of the best dunks ever done in the NBA. Again, i took the background of the picture myself.
For my last section, the video, i chose to do a video reel of some of the best moments or players in sports history. I attempted to use a lot of different sports to show how many people take every sport seriously. There is some of the best plays in football, curling, horse racing, etc. I also added in crashes, and some cheering from some of the best players in sports.
Hope you Enjoy!

Remix Idea
I know i have been doing a lot of sports, but we were told to do what interest's us so i have got some feedback from some friends and i believe i have some strong ideas for this one if i can create them properly.
To start off, my first picture is going to be a side view of a basketball net. It will consist of 4-6 action shots of different basketball players to create on dunk. From start to finish, to make it seem like a frozen sequence.
Second, I think i am going to take a picture of a soccer goalie in position to make a save. I want one with lots of room and the goalie to one side. I will then take a soccer ball and blow it up to make it seem like it is the main focus of the picture with the goalie sort of blurred. I will cut out all the hexagonal shapes on the ball so its just the outline of the ball and the outline of the hexagons. Then i will replace the holes with different pictures of soccer jerseys so that they make up the soccer ball.
And last, for my video, it is going have a collaboration of a lot of sports to create one video. Some needs might include a baseball player diving into home plate, but before he lands, it fades inton a swimmer mid dive into a pool. There are many ideas i can do, so i am not sure completely all the details but am hoping to come out with a great final product that sort of brings all the sports together to show that they all incorporate the same sort of skills.
Thanks,
