124] Digital Media and Storytelling in Higher Education Chapter IV of the Copyright Act deals extensively with cases of fair use. These include quotation (Art. § 34 (1)), copying (Art. 34 (2)) and adaptation of a work for educational purposes (Art. Section 34(4)), but in all three cases, it is required to give credit to the author or licensor. In the classroom, it is not yet automatic to expect pupils to produce completely legal material. To prevent copyright complications it is best to include open-source and public-domain images, music or video content in digital stories. There are many libraries and educational databases whose content is freely accessible and usable as part of cultural heritage. A good example is the Digital Storytelling Festival competition run by Europeana and The HeritageLab, where anyone can submit a digital story without paying a registration fee. In order to participate, the digital story must include at least one open-source work from a database made available to any cultural institution in the world. Another important condition for participation is that external sources must be acknowledged in the video. The third condition for participation in the competition is that the creators must indicate which CC license they wish to claim for their video. The legal aspects of DST also include the issue of personal rights regulated by Act V of 2013 on the Civil Code, in particular, the right to image and sound recording, which requires the consent of the person in the image or sound recording - except in the case of a mass recording or a recording of a public performance (Civil Code, Art. 2:48 (2), (2)). To ensure that personal rights are respected, the creator is required to obtain the consent of the person concerned when recording a person’s image or voice. It can be concluded that planning is a key element of the DST method. The preparatory phase should establish the privacy rules for the process. Informational materials, declarations, and agreements have to be prepared so that the facilitator can provide them to participants or, in the case of minors, to their parents before and after the process. Ban and Nagy (2016) mention among their introductory objectives the clarification of copyright issues and the future use of the videos. Before the DST workshop, participants should also be informed about the rules of group communication and participation. After the workshop, participants should sign a copyright and disclosure statement (Ban and Nagy, 2016, p. 80), which can be supplemented by a data management statement for both education and research. This ensures that participants feel safe at the workshop and have an understanding regarding the use of their digital story. As part of the planning process, the facilitator should inform the participants about the possibility of searching for copyrighted content and using Creative Commons licenses, as well as the requirements and conventions for referencing, before the creation phases (i.e., writing, creating and searching for images, searching for background music, and editing).
