A C.C. tipster sent us this link to a conversation that’s happening over at the Brooklyn Philharmonic’s YouTube group between potential applicants for the orchestra’s “Believe You Can Win” contest and the Philharmonic.

It turns out the initial legal language of the contest rules had implied that simply by entering the competition–which asks video makers to create original work to composer Randy Woolf’s work, “Try To Believe” (a la the Madonna “True Blue” video contest)–that video artists were agreeing to sign away the rights to their work to the Brooklyn Philharmonic in perpetuity: just by entering the contest.

The BP updated their rules in response to the complaints, although they’re still kind of ambiguous, but then announced that the artists couldn’t use Woolf’s music with their videos in the future unless they got permission from Woolf directly. The composer himself then chimes in and offers to allow video artists to use his music as long as A.) they let him know of screenings, and B.) they split any money made 50/50.

Since, as of this posting, only one video has been submitted, the BP extended their deadline over the weekend. So go get ‘em kids! You’ve got 72 hours.
