Contingency Plans

On 1st of December if day before doesn’t go well, redo the photoshoot at 12pm in the same places.
We will look into bus times and lifts from other people to make sure we can get tot the area needed.
Ask parents or grandparents if all goes wrong to take us to the location. Bring an umbrella in case of
rain to protect the camera and the model from getting too wet.

Relevant legal and ethical issues

● Legal and ethical issues

● Copyright, Designs and Patents Act 1988

● The law gives the creators of literary, dramatic, musical, artistic works, sound
recordings, broadcasts, films and typographical arrangement of published editions,
rights to control the ways in which their material may be used.

● The rights cover: broadcast and public performance, copying, adapting, issuing,
renting and lending copies to the public.

● This means it is not a criminal offence to break the law, which could result in a fine or
jail sentence.

● Instead the person who owns the copyright has to sue the person they believe has
broken the law.

● The case is then heard in a civil court and if the person is found guilty of breaking
copyright law then they will have to pay damages to the owner of the copyright. The
amount of damages is set by the court.

This law will not be broken as no artistic works will be replicated or copied in any
way even through how the model is presented or what they are wearing

● Types of work protected

 ● Literary  

● song lyrics, manuscripts, manuals, computer programs, commercial documents,

leaflets, newsletters and articles etc.

I will not be referencing song lyrics, manuscripts, manuals, computer programs,

commercial documents, leaflets, newsletters or aticles in my photoshoot and will try my
best to avoid accidently doing it.
● Typographical arrangement of published editions

● magazines, periodicals, etc.

● doesn’t apply to the feature

● Sound recording

● may be recordings of other copyright works, e.g. musical and literary.

● Film  

● video footage, films, broadcasts and cable programmes.

● The Copyright (Computer Programs) Regulations 1992 extended the rules covering
literary works to include computer programs.

Video Footage is physically impossible to use in this photoshoot therefore it

doesn’t apply to the photoshoot
● Duration of copyright

● For literary, dramatic, musical or artistic works: 70 years from the end of the
calendar year in which the last remaining author of the work dies.

● If the author is unknown, copyright will last for 70 years from end of the calendar
year in which the work was created, although if it is made available to the public
during that time, by publication, authorised performance, broadcast, exhibition etc,
then the duration will be 70 years from the end of the year that the work was first
made available.

● Sound Recordings: 50 years from the end of the calendar year in which the work was
created or, if the work is released within that time, 70 years from the end of the
calendar year in which the work was first released.

All Sounds are owned by me

● Films: 70 years from the end of the calendar year in which the last principal director,
author or composer dies.
 ● If the work is of unknown authorship: 70 years from end of the calendar year of
creation, or if made available to the public in that time, 70 years from the end of the
year the film was first made available.

This doesn’t apply to the radio feature.

● Typographical arrangement of published editions: 25 years from the end of the
calendar year in which the work was first published.

Doesn’t apply to the feature

● Broadcasts and cable programmes: 50 years from the end of the calendar year in
which the broadcast was made.

Doesn’t apply to the feature

●

● Equality Act 2010

● This law legally protects people from discrimination in the workplace and in wider
society.

Everyone will be treated equally no matter what race, gender, ethnicity, sexuality Ect.

● Types of protection

● The type of protection you can get depends on what you’ve created. You get some
types of protection automatically, others you have to apply for.

● Automatic protection

● ● Protection you have to apply for

● Obscene Publications Act 1959

● For the purposes of this Act an article shall be deemed to be obscene if its effect or
(where the article comprises two or more distinct items) the effect of any one of its
 items is, if taken as a whole, such as to tend to deprave and corrupt persons who are
likely, having regard to all relevant circumstances, to read, see or hear the matter
contained or embodied in it.

● In this Act ‘article’ means any description of article containing or embodying matter
to be read or looked at or both, any sound record and any film or other record of a
picture or pictures.

● This is a criminal law.

● Trespass

● This is a civil law.

● Trespass to land consists of any unjustifiable intrusion by a person upon the land in
possession of another.

● Civil trespass is actionable in the courts.

Privacy

● The introduction of the Human Rights Act 1998 incorporated into English law the
European Convention on Human Rights.

● Article 8.1 of the ECHR provides an explicit right to respect for a private life:

● Article 8 protects your right to respect for your private life, your family life, your
home and your correspondence (letters, telephone calls and emails, for example). 

● Privacy Law is a law which deals with the use of people’s personal information and
making sure they aren't intruded upon. These laws make sure people can't have
their information wrongly used without permission.

Only public grounds will be used for this photoshoot such as the streets or
different roads.

● The effect this has on radio:

This means that they can't tell the listeners people’s full names or any private details
they don't want revealed. For example if a viewer calls in but they don't want their
name to be revealed then they can't say it.

The effect this has on television:

This is also basically the same as radio, they can't use people’s full names without
their consent. This also means that if they take footage of someone they need to get
that person’s permission before they air it on television.
 ● Anyone who believes their right has been broken can make a civil claim in the courts
against those they believe have invaded their privacy.

● When applying the legal principles the court will balance the claimant's right to
privacy against the right to freedom of expression.

● If the claimant is proved to be correct this could result in an injunction banning

publication of information; damages; and return or destruction of the material
gained from the intrusion.

● Defamation Act 2013

● This Act reformed defamation law on issues of the right to freedom of expression
and the protection of reputation. It also comprised a response to perceptions that
the law as it stood was giving rise to libel tourism and other inappropriate claims.

● The Act changed existing criteria for a successful claim, by requiring claimants to
show actual or probable serious harm (which, in the case of for-profit bodies, is
restricted to serious financial loss), before suing for defamation in England or Wales.

● It also enhanced existing defences, by introducing a defence for website operators

hosting user-generated content (provided they comply with a procedure to enable
the complainant to resolve disputes directly with the author of the material
concerned or otherwise remove it), and introducing new statutory defences of truth,
honest opinion, and "publication on a matter of public interest“.

No One will be judged unfairly or humiliated publicly through the photoshoot

● LIBEL

● A written, published false statement that is damaging to a person's reputation.

No Lies Or miscommunication about the model will be spread into the public
● SLANDER

● Making a false spoken statement damaging to a person's reputation.

● Defamation is a civil law and so you would need to sue someone who you believe
has damaged your reputation.

Nothing damaging to someone will be said publicaly after release of the

photoshoot
● Ethical Constraints

● Rather than legal constraints, ethical issues are based on judgement. They are what
society considers as morally acceptable.
 ● If something is seen as ethically wrong than it is first investigated to see if it is
breaking any laws. However, if it is not in violation of any of these laws then it comes
under ethical issues.

● This means that no law has been broken, however the public may see it as offensive
or controversial. Many ethical concerns are raised by groups of specific people.
These groups may find the publication offensive, due to how the minority are
represented.

No one being photo’d will be treated unfairly or differently for who they are
● Ethical Constraints
● Ethical concerns which come into media production are things such as:
● Protecting under 18s
● Representation of age, gender, race, disability, sexuality and religion
● Using off the record information
● The power to influence public opinion
● Interviewing vulnerable people or children
● Anything that could cause offence or harm
● Presenting an individual or their views as being representative of an entire group or
people
● Running premium rate phone lines
● Using hidden microphones
● Making a product which offends or insults a viewer/listener/user
Everyone will be treated the same (positively)
● Relevant regulatory bodies
● Each media industry has its own regulatory body which has a code of conduct and
rules which all media practitioners follow:
● BBFC
● ASA
● OfCom
● IPSO
