Copyright is a legal concept, enacted by most governments, that grants the creator of an original creation exclusive rights to its use and distribution, usually for a limited time, with the intention of enabling the creator of intellectual wealth (e.g. a designer of a logo or an artist) to receive compensation for their work and be able to financially support themselves. So if someone would use their logo for their product, the creator of the logo could take them to court and sue them getting compensation.

A trademark is a recognizable sign, design or expression which identifies products or services of a particular source from those of others. The trademark owner can be an individual, business organization, or any legal entity. A trademark may be located on a package, a label, a voucher or on the product itself. Trademarks are also being displayed on company buildings. For example the Kingswood logo is a trademark, the purple shield is their sign. So when all the student wear there uniform the public will know what school they attend.

Intellectual property (IP) is a legal concept which refers to creations of the mind for which exclusive rights are recognized. Under intellectual property law, owners are granted certain exclusive rights to a variety of intangible assets, such as musical, literary, and artistic works; discoveries and inventions; and words, phrases, symbols, and designs. Common types of intellectual property rights include copyright, trademarks, patents, industrial design rights, trade dress, and in some jurisdictions trade secrets. For example, if people would use a logo or the actual thing in a movie or a music video the maker would get a part in the money that they would make, so the creator would get a part of the profit. Creators advertise in movies and adverts, so when people they will notice them or if they don't recognize them they will search for them and want to buy them. This would increase the money that the creator would get and they might make more products so that they could make more money.

You would need to know what all of these mean because if you make a look alike logo or product you could get sued and you would have to pay them money for a copyright sue. The first thing you want for your new product is not a copyright sue, it would look bad for the company and It would make people not buy your product because they wouldn’t like to buy a copycat product. So, you need to think of this while you are making a product.

UNIT 35 P.2

A local band would like a logo designed for their website this needs to be combined with their band photo:

For this task I would use a bitmap image as it is for a website and bitmaps are used for websites.

A builder wants some eye catching text for the side of his van to improve business opportunities:

For this task I would use a vector file as the builder wants eye catching text, this implies for it to be big, therefore the text wont become distorted.

The nursery on your estate would like a flyer designed to promote the facility:

For this task I would use a bitmap file as it is a flyer it will not be enlarged so the file would not be come distorted and also fliers are simple so pixels will work best.
