Every reuse of a preexisting recording is, on some level, a misuse in that it was not intended or at least anticipated by the original maker, but not all misuses are necessarily unethical. In fact, there are many instances of productive misuse that seem justified. At the same time, there are other instances in which the misuse shades into abuse. Documentary scholars have long engaged with the question of the ethical responsibility of documentary makers in relation to their subjects. But what happens when this responsibility is set at a remove, when the recording already exists for the taking and repurposing? Reuse, Misuse and Abuse surveys a range of contemporary films and videos that appropriate preexisting footage and attempts to theorize their ethical implications.Actualities (Motion pictures)Actualities (Motion pictures)Documentary filmsMoral and ethical aspectsGaze in motion picturesStock footageVideo recordingsMoral and ethical aspectsSOCIAL SCIENCE / GeneralbisacshAudio, Audiovisual, Contemporary, Culture, Digital Era, Documentary, Ethics, Films, Recording, Scholars, Videos, Visual, Footage, People, Life, Events, Originality, Content, Reuse, Gas, Intimate Traces.Actualities (Motion pictures)Actualities (Motion pictures).Documentary filmsMoral and ethical aspects.Gaze in motion pictures.Stock footage.Video recordingsMoral and ethical aspects.SOCIAL SCIENCE / General.070.1/95Baron Jaimie, authttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut1615911DE-B1597DE-B1597BOOK9910826471403321Reuse, Misuse, Abuse3946339UNINA
