Copyright is when a certain piece of media is created/taken by a person and it makes them the only person who is allowed to use the piece of media unless he allows other people to use that media.
(protect the intellectual property)
Why is this important?
This is important to us as we can protect our images from being stolen and used by other people.
Gaining permission to use other peoples media.
A release and connect form is a form that allows you or other people use a certain media that is
copyrighted. this allows you to use the image to your own liking.
This form involves models names, what this permission allows you to do, owners name, signatures (this makes the document official). you will also need permissions to take photos from certain private locations.
You are not allowed to use a telephoto lens in public places as you are able to take a photo from a long distance away and the person will never know that a picture of them has been taking.
In public spaces you need to be careful as you may accidentally take pictures of logos and they are affected by copyright.
legal and ethical
We need to be conscious of representation when taking pictures because we could miss-represent people/companies/religions/ethnicities/abilities as you may get sued.
