on 1/5/2009 Can you give me an example of "documented evidence"? What can I do? Should I type up a letter stating that I am _________ and am writing under the pseudonym __________. And then have it notarized or something? Would that work?

Video Transcript

"Hi, I'm Nathan Baehme, writer and film director with Expert Village. And this series is all about copyrights. A common question that people ask is do you have to file your submitted work under your real name, can you use a stage name or a pen name? The answer to this is yes. Just make sure that you check the appropriate box labeled pseudonymous. That's space two of your registration form. Also make sure that you have documented evidence to prove that you are in fact the individual that goes with your chosen stage name or pen name. Otherwise, filing under that name would be worthless and stupid."
