YouTube Video Mash-up


a youtube video mash-up is the combination of multiple sources of videos which usually have no relation with each other, other than a derivative work, often lampooning its component sources or another text. many mash-up videos are humorous movie trailer parodies, a later genre of mash-ups gaining much popularity. to the extent that mash-ups are ‘transformative’ of original content, they may find protection from copyright claims under the “fair use” doctrine of u.s. copyright law.
the following (below) are just a few actual examples of youtube video mash-ups that can be found on youtube:
