If your work takes place which is recognizable by the property owner – or even if it doesn’t – you are going to need a property release form if you plan to sell or license your visual product.
Below are some links to forms:
American Society of Media Photographers
If you are using that soul-snatching and/or soul-creating recording device (audio and/or video) and would like to be able to use the data which you have acquired in the authoring of an audio, film, multi-media, or video production for fame, profit, or gratisl distribution to the planet ascribable to you, you are going to need a signed model release form.
If you have data of one type or another and you do not have the proper release forms establishing ownership of the intellectual property it may become impossible to sell or show your work without legal ramifications.
This is the form used by Open Arts as of Fall 2017.
This is currently used by NYU for photo and video.
I also found this page on NYU’s site which has some guidelines and general information that might be useful.
Watch the videos below and think about the mass and size of the cameras which were used to create the effects in Mean Streets and Evil Dead… daunting isn’t it?
The Snorricam visual effect is relatively easy to create now that cameras are so light in weight.
Combine this with Daniel Novarro’s portal and the World is Yours!
Get out there and create!
Sam Raimi had to struggle to get the $90,000 he needed to produce the original Evil Dead. But his budget restrictions forced him to be inventive while on set, giving the horror classic its unique look.
Apples from the Berkshires this weekend. Enjoy!
