Development of Creative Commons licenses

[Glenn Otis Brown <glenn AT creativecommons.org>]

this is fine provided the parts where the filmmaker is asserting fair 
use are labeled as such.

filmmaker could simply say, in the credits or in the text accompanying 
the film, that segments XYZ belong to the third parties and are not 
subject to the cc license and that licensees should make their own 
analysis on whether to use them or not.

note how MIT does it here: they created their own sort of "restricted 
use" footnote for 3rd party materials that might show up in their cc 
licensed course materials
