Came across this.
>>Kane Parson had apparently stolen the concept from a man named Jacob Kraggs. Kraggs is from the US and Parson is from the UK. Kraggs is claiming his worked became a fad and others followed including this Kane guy but Kane apparently copyright his script and may have had the visuals trademarked as well. Chicken before the Egg.

>>This is why you should never get excited about posting shit until you at least pay the 85 dollars and send it into the US Copyright.

>>he has no leg to stand on in a court room. at best they'll throw a couple of thousands of dollars at Kraggs in a closed settlement.
Dont be stupid, License everything you have before releasing it to the public

Straight up rip off

Sucks for Kraggs but Kane is a faggot for trying to copyright a public domain internet thing

The English are well known for just taking what isn't theirs and making claim to it.

I never really paid attention to this. Is it some creepypasta thing? Taking some collaborative free story telling exchange, calling it yours, and then putting a price tag on it sounds inherently sort of scummy to me.
But I don't really know the details so I'll go back to ignoring it. Maybe I'm completely off base
>>
I don't believe Kraggs for a second.
Thankfully the Doers achieve will the others seeth.
More power to Kane.

Kanes full backroom series is here:

Also Kraggs? like >>218236259 the original 4chan post was only this picture and then someone posted a text reply to the picture.

Reminds me a lot of Marble hornets.
Someone posted the picture of slenderman and then 10 days later they started/released their first slenderman episode

I had a job that would sometimes take me to old buildings that were either mid or pre-construction or restoration or had some abandoned wing or something, so seeing weird incoherent abandoned locations is more nostalgic than creepy to me
Liked the enigma at the whatever fault knock off shadow monster though

>>218237511
Shan’t never watch that fags gay jewtube series
>>
>>218237511
Same photo? They're using it on x.com A24 page. its in the Trailer I took it from not the original 4chan post.

Maybe Kraggs wasn't the original creator but even ai (which often is incorrect) correlated to the story that is circulating on forum sites. Kraggs created the original one and then this dude just copied it as sort of a Fad or Challenge base theme.
But as far as that "Total rip off" photo, its not the original 4chan post or other forum sites. it's from A24's own film trailer. the watermark is right on it. its at the end of the trailer which is a minute long

So who is in the wrong?

any room with no furniture and weird curved stairways or long dimly lit is considered Uncanny Valley'
the mind fucks with you and tries to fill in creepy details (a fight or flight mechanism kicks in for survival)
>>
>>218237959
Honestly going to creepy abandoned areas looking around for stuff is kind of fun. Making it creepy is more of a movie magic thing unless you're doing it in the middle of the night by flashlight or something.
But it's not like I was ever ghost hunting or something that intentionally tries to create the situation you're talking about
>>
>>218238096
I had a job that allowed me similar access into college buildings that were hardly used, and although I agree it's not particularly scary I have to say I love Kane pixel's youtube channel. The horror is on the nose but I think it actually nails the overall vibe
>>
>>218236205
Everyone knows he didn't come up with the backrooms. Nobody knows who came up with it, it's in the public domain. The backrooms had been around for years before Kane made his first video.
>>
>someone please steal my screenplay so it'll get made
>>
>>218236205
Backrooms has always seemed like one of those creepypasta memes which just occurred naturally on some SCP forum or some shit then grew rapidly. So I doubt anyone 'invented' the backrooms as a concept.
>>
>>218238833
The photo had been around for years, but a post on /x/ came up with the name and description. So some specific guy created the backrooms but he'll never be able to prove it.
>>
>>218239026
Meh doesn't matter. The internet is full of that shit now. SCP is pretty much just that.
>>
>>218236205
The concept literally came from an /x/ post
lmao at people trying to claim anonymous posts as theirs
>>
>>218236369
Why? It makes sense to scrape and claw your way to success and comfort? Kane is a young man with artistic promise and integrity it makes sense to lock down the ip that makes him big. Imagine carpenter giving everyone halloween or king giving everyone it because they didn’t want to claim the idea of spooky clowns or scary killers legally distinctly

copyright is automatic in the US, retard.

^Hostile!
anyways only if you post it or print it with a date and your name associated. so it's better to register it. how would anyone even know its your work?
copyright law:
>>"However, there are additional benefits to officially registering your copyright with the U.S. Copyright Office, such as the ability to sue for statutory damages and attorney's fees if your work is infringed."

its best to register all IP works and this is clearly one of those cases that might get challenged
