"Walking on Eggshells" is a 24-minute documentary about appropriation, creative influence, re-use and intellectual property in the remix age. It is a conversation among various musicians, visual artists, writers and lawyers, all sharing their views on why and how we use and create culture, and how intellectual property law, originally designed to provide people with incentives to create, sometimes hinders creative production far more than it enhances it.

This film is our final project for the seminar "Intellectual Property in the Digital Age" at Yale University.

Directed and Produced by:
Jacob Albert
Ryan Beauchamp
Brendan Schlagel

Interviews with (in order of appearance):

    It is hard for me to watch this, not only because I care about music and the fact that true musicianship is in decline. I can understand what this documentary is standing for, however, I believe that original artists should have rights. I myself am an artist and have had others profit off of my work. I never got credit for my ideas, I was never asked permission. I felt violated as if my art was no longer sacred or original. I had one person copy me aggressively and blatantly, refusing to stop.
