This weeks class was entertaining because we compared the originator to the personator in the media field. Although both of these creators may produce similar products, they both have their own twist on them, which makes them different. The questions that were asked in class, was about whether a person who personates a form of media is considered to be taking a stand in the media and creating a spoof or vice versa. My answer to this question was that they both exist at some point in time during the personators creation.
There are multiple factors that make these two people (creator and personator) different. For example, the originator spends a good amount of money to produce an outstanding product. Their mission is to please the society and make a point. On the other hand, the personator doesn't have to reach too far into their pockets to produce a spoof of the originators work. Also, their isn't that much technical differences made to the original work, but it is creative. Most of these creations are done on websites like You tube. They are normally done for entertainment purposes like: receiving comments from others, comical reasoning, and out of spite.
I believe that these two products are from originators no matter what type it is because creativity is put into both and a touch of the creator is developed throughout the invention. It is determined by the people to decide whether it is a copy of the original work, not the originator . Spoofs are well known in our society, so its not a problem in recognizing the difference between the two types.
