Buffyverse (Fan made productions)

Encyclopedia : B : BU : BUF : Buffyverse (Fan made productions)

---

This article deals with fan-made productions using elements of the Buffy and Angel franchises. 20th Century Fox and its licensees are the only organizations legally allowed to create any commercial products with the name and trademark Buffy and Angel. Consequently, these fan productions are unauthorized and subject to legal issues. Even so, this body of work exists and continues to grow. Fans have produced works in fan films, and more commonly in fan fiction.

Fan films

Legal issues

The attitude of the Buffy and Angel copyright and trademark holders towards fan works has so far largely ignored fan productions providing they are not made for profits. Buffyverse fan films currently operate in an informational vacuum, since 20th Century Fox has made no official statement regarding their existence, pro or con. Fan filmmakers have generally kept a low profile, hoping not to draw attention to themselves.

PLEASE DISCUSS CHARACTER ADDITTIONS/REMOVALS BEFORE MAKING CHANGES AT (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Buffyverse#Buffyverse-box_character_inclusions)

This box cannot/shouldn't be including every Buffyverse character. Some suggested guidelines are:

"The people who appeared in the opening credits (Scooby Gang & Fang Gang/FG) appear in the box, and the most important villains/friends who had a significant emotional impact on multiple of those opening credits characters - as long as they have a significant episode count, and preferably if they appear in three or more seasons."
