Do you even NEED to copyright a montage?...I dont think anyone is going to take credit for your work (if thats what your worried about) If thats the case then just put your gamertag or your name the corner the screen or something.

Put a watermark in it, that way if anyone trys to steal it, it has your name in the corner.

put a GamingVidz.com Watermark in it

Also, it depends on what program you are using to copyright it.

Yep, easy as that. just import a psd file and size it to where you want it, and lower the opacity (I go to 50%).

yeah, so that you don't end up being a victim of complete losers, like "humid" He stole Rippons H2 montage and one of hist H:CE ones. Some guy also stole WaLKa's.
