My jurisdiction is: USA
If I were to create video based on-line tutorials that showed details of how to use websites as part of an overall program eg. in creating a course on social media marketing if I record videos showing step-by-step details of how to use Facebook, MySpace, Linkedin, Twitter, Youtube etc would I be violating any copyright laws? My videos would not only demonstrate the use of but would highlight certain unique aspect of individual sites and how to best use these in the overall scheme of social media marketing.
I would be creating profiles on various online social media and other sites under a generic name and recording step by step videos for this as part of the overall product I intend to market and profit from.
This would involve me going to the websites or demonstrating the use of the products by video recording the steps while I am at their website. Most of these websites are free to join for basic membership and some also have a paid component while others are fee based membership sites.
I also would create "how-to" videos for various commercial products or sites available eg how to create videos using xxxx software product (showing step-by-step details usually lacking from the product maker themselves).
The product(s) I create would be marketed on the internet.
Please advise.
