Check out for lots of free downloadable film clips. Use content in the Public Domain, such as old government films stored in the national archives.Create all your own content (music, movies, photos, etc).The safest way to stay out of trouble is to: I also used quite a bit of historical/archival footage, some of which was free and in the public domain, others which I had to pay for and get the rights. I then had to document each and every piece of music with name of artist, publisher, record company, plus have a letter confirming I had their permission. I hired a composer for about 2/3 of the music, but I had to get permission and obtain the rights for the other music clips. This was a major ordeal during the production of my documentary Briars In The Cotton Patch. If it was not originally created by YOU, then you will need to have a document showing you have permission to use it and copy it. That means you will need documentation for every single item in your movie – music, photos, film clips, graphics… everything.
You MUST have their permission and/or pay to copy their work.Īnd if you have the dream of having your film seen on television, you will have to PROVE to those broadcasters you own all the rights to every piece of content in your movie.
When making a film, you must respect copyright of other artists when you want to use their music, video, film, artwork, photographs, etc.
