eLesson | Clearing Personality Rights

When talking about making movies, dealing with rights clearance issues may not sound like the most exciting part. But throughout the entire production workflow, there are a lot of legal questions to respond to:

What do I have to do when my script is based on real events and real people? Do I have to clear the artwork in the background? What do I need to consider when using copyrighted music? Is there an insurance against possible claims?

The following e:training will guide you through the process of rights clearance in film and TV productions and will help you to navigate this complex arena!
