us code 106 gives the copyright holder exclusive rights of derivative works
so yes even at home, making art for a book you dont have permission for, and isnt seen by anyone but you, is still copyright infringement
- fenomas 2y agoYes, but that doesn't mean it's "illegal" to create a derivative work. It just means that the original author has rights they can exert over what you make.
- chandler5555 2y agoI dont know everything i read online says its copyright infringement to create derivative works, outside of stuff like parodies, fair use and getting permission.
- fenomas 2y ago> outside of stuff like .. fair use That's the important bit - the things you called illegal a few comments back were obvious examples of (presumptive) fair use. More generally, whether something is copyright infringement can be vague and subjective - so the bar for going around saying "yes, that is infringement" is not "does it meet a description I read online?". The bar is: "have courts previously ruled that a very similar case was infringement?".
