should get permission (or seek some legal advice)in particular since this is a
commercial venture (perhaps the organisers have more info) as she is using the

This extract refers to the use of use of another person's music or song. See
the full copyright statement at <a href="http://www.copyright.org.au/G012.pdf">http://www.copyright.org.au/G012.pdf</a><br>
Can I write a piece based on someone else’s idea?<br>
Ideas are not protected by copyright, so you are free to create a piece based
on someone else’s idea. However,<br>
you must be careful to ensure that you do not reproduce a “substantial
part”, that is, an important or distinctive<br>
part, of the way someone else has expressed their idea.<br>
It can be particularly difficult in the context of music to distinguish between
an idea and its expression in a<br>
particular work. If your work incorporates elements or <strong>melodies</strong>
of another person’s work, you may need to get<br>
permission or specific legal advice.<br>
<br>

A question about copyright<br>
A group in the school is doing a video advertisement to enter into a major
competition(not one sponsored by education departments). They want to use the
tune to the Rio song (Peter Allen) but change the words. Do they need to get
the approval from who ever owns the copyright to this. I assume the answer is
yes???<br>

Oddly enough, under US law if this becomes a parody .. it is permissible under
their free speech provisions.<br>

Hi Daniela,<br>
<br>
It's an interesting scenario. Might be worth exploring <a

<br>
If I find out before you, I'll let you know.<br>
