Join Oregon Volunteer Lawyers for the Arts volunteer attorneys Ryan Mauck and Chris Weathers for an
engaging exploration into the realm of Rights and Clearances for
creative projects across various mediums, including fine art,
photography, media, film, television, video games, etc. This workshop
delves into the essentials for creatives looking to use anything
belonging to someone else in their projects.
We'll cover key
considerations for licensing and using third-party artworks, using
individuals’ names, images, and likenesses, working with trademarks and
logos, the use of generative artificial intelligence, and avoiding
defamation in your work. Ryan and Chris will share real-world examples
of challenges faced in creative projects and discuss strategies for
prevention. This remote workshop will also offer plenty of time for
questions and answers.
