Sample copyright releases
- December 2, 2008 @ 2:50pmFreya Anderson says:One of our agencies has been requested to digitize some video and post it on their website. Some of the video is under copyright. I think I have them pretty well set up to make the copyright determinations, but they would like to make up a form to use when permission of the copyright holder is required. Does anyone have any such templates to share, or know of a good place to find them? We have one sample in-house, but the agency would like to see more alternatives. Thanks!

I think that the Copyright Management Center at IUPUI used to have a good selection of samples, but I don't know if it is being maintained now that their director has moved to NYC.
OK, so I just checked, and although the site says it will soon be taken down, it is still available and there is permission information at:
