performance trailers copyright
Posted: Fri Aug 15, 2008 4:26 pm
Hi . I produce,direct,edit online trailers and broadcast promotional material for the entertainment industry. Theatre productions mainly. I'm trying to find out if I own the copyright of the trailers I produce or do the producers of the production- who have commissioned me- own it?
Numerous times I have been commissioned to produce a B2B sales trailer which has then used to promote the show. I see these as two very different applications and domains. Some trailers have been running for many years now and are making a considerable income for the production.
In the future should/could i stipulate the type usage and time frame of the material.
many thanks
