I just wanted to send my thanks to all the people who replied to my appeal for advice about using video footage in education sessions.
The advice has been extemely helpful, and although I now realise there is no easy answer to this I feel little more knowlegeable about the ins and outs of it all, and have many new places to go for resources - so thank you everyone.
I also contacted ARKive and BBC active directly and recieved the following responses, which I thought list members might be interested to see.
From ARKive:
"Visitors to the Site are entitled to:
- View the contents of the site
- Download and retain copies of the material in digital form
- Print hard copies of each web page
- Download and print web pages from the site for educational or research purposes as permitted by the Copyright, Designs and Patents Act 1988. Extracts of part of the website or compilations of extracts can be made for the internal educational purposes of any authorised educational establishment, provided that the integrity of the material is maintained and copyright ownership acknowledged
"Use of ARKive materials for promotional or commercial activities, educational or otherwise are not permitted without copyright clearance from the copyright holders. Therefore if you charge a fee for your educational sessions you would need to ask permission from the media donors. It is best to go directly to the media donors themselves - the details of which are under each image and video on the ARKive website."
From BBC Active:
"BBC Active can only distribute screening licences for the whole programme. How much of that programme you wish to screen is up to you.
"The BBC Active screening licence is £195.00. you can screen the programme in perpetuity.
"As the BBC Active licence is a non theatric rights licence you cannot charge entry to watch the programme directly but if there was a charge for entry to the zoo and the screening was a “free” extra this would be fine.
"Alternatively you can approach BBC Motion Gallery and purchase a licence for each clip. (This may prove more expensive)."
I am also meeting with someone from BBC Media Gallery so I am hoping that they might be able to give us some useful advice too.
Many thanks,
Ruth
