Dear All
I have a sneaking feeling that Chris Pounder will have a feeling about this
for everyone........I'm new to the list but I have the following to
contribute:
I was involved a video tape recording for BBC's Songs of Praise last month
and, at the back of the hymn booklet was the following disclaimer:
"Please note that your presence here at this "Songs of Praise" is taken to
mean that you give your consent for the recording of your contribution to be
used for transmission on BBC television and/or radio and/or for any other
purpose whatsoever in any form and in any medium, such as audiocassette,
video or other television anywhere in the world at any time without
limitation henceforth. If, for any reason, you are unhappy to grant all
rights, in all media, in perpetuity, to your contribution towards the
programme, could you please tell a member of the production team before
recording commences. By publication of this notice it will be assumed that
all members of the congregation and choirs present during recording have
given a totally unlimited grant of all rights to their contribution."
Several things struck me:
1) Wow, that's really wordy for the average church goer to really
understand
2) Wow, that's really broad ranging and sweeping in content and intent.
3) How easy would it be for any congregation member to know who was a
member of the "production team" and who wasn't.
4) This notice was not pointed out verbally in any announcement at any
stage of a two evening (6 hours worth) of recording and, by being placed at
the back of the booklet, was hardly explicitly visible.
Anyway, there are possible correlations with issues of group photos etc. -
perhaps in terms of how not to go about seeking consent!
Hope this is of interest to the group.
