Re: Kansas firm sells candid Wal-Mart videos

[robert reed] "They refused and told her she needed to go back to the photographer for prints. She called and was given a pricetag of over $350 for what she could have got at the local drug store for about $40."

I've done a lot of work in the photo business and this has been standard procedure as long as I remember.

Also, my former employer ended up in a legal wrangle with an agency who would not give up raw footage from a TV spot they shot for us. I ran the internal video department and got to see both sides of the dispute. BTW...in that disputer the agency got to keep the footage and the company was not allowed to use it without paying an additional fee.

I've also paid freelancers additional fees to have exclusive rights/ownership to all the footage/negatives produced for us.

Thats why this discussion has been so interesting to me. My experience has always been that lacking a contract stating otherwise the footage belongs to the shooter. Ron and Steve's position on ownership is contrary to my experience so I'm surprised to see it argued so vehemently...
