Codes of Practice & Regulation Grid

CODES OF PRACTISE & REGULATION GRID

COPYRIGHT
WHAT IS COPYRIGHT LAW?
HOW DID YOU KEEP TO COPYRIGHT LAW IN THE AUDIO AND VISUAL ELEMENTS OF YOUR PRODUCTION?
The copyright law is a law which states, that a creators product, shall not be copied by another person, such as an idea being stolen for someone else’s product to make money, if this issue does occur, there will be a lawsuit in order.

People who make a product can copyright things such as, song lyrics, ideas for products, certain designs, logos, etc, as long as it is made by them.
We needed a lot of permission when we were in the production part of the music video, an example was when one person in the group asked permission, through the internet to the artist of the song, so that we could use her song for the music video, another example was when we asked for the people in the cast to be in the video, so we had the two people in the couple that we needed, we also needed to ask for permission for places to use for our music video, such as we needed to ask some people if we needed permission to use places such as Bens house at 1:18 and the owners of the house said it was okay to use the area to film.
OFCOM
OFCOM REGULATION
DESCRIBE THE PARTS OF THE CODE RELEVANT TO MUSIC VIDEO PRODUCTION
HOW DID YOU KEEP TO IT IN YOUR PRODUCTION?
PROTECTING UNDER 18s

In the production of a music video, anyone involved that is under the age of 18 should be protected from anything harmful that could possibly trouble them and involves them from staying away from any sexual behaviour, violence or strong language that could be in the music video.


When we were making our music video we made sure that everyone in the video (since everyone was under 18) since there was no violence, strong language or sexual behaviour in the video, so everyone in the cast and crew was safe from anything that  would trouble them, at 0:02, you could see that one of them was swearing, but we made sure that she was fine with doing it, and throughout the rest of the music video, there was no other strong language used in the production part of it. 
HARM AND OFFENCE

Harm and offence is when there are standards put when making a music video, to protect everyone in the cast and crew, from any sort of harmful or offensive material.


In the production of our music video, we all made sure that every single person working in the cast and crew, were protected from anything that would have been harmful to them, such as sharp objects, dangerous areas, etc. Our group also made sure that there was nothing in the video that would possibly offend any members of the cast and crew, by checking if there was anything that could be offensive before filming, and everyone seemed fine with it. We also were careful when filming in some areas, such as at 0:25, we made sure that there was no possibility that the actress did not fall when doing the shots, so she could be safe and not get injured.

CRIME

Crime is when filming we make sure that there is nothing that happens in the production of the video that is any sort of criminal behaviour, such as hate speech, terrorism, abuse, etc. By doing this we make sure that nobody of the public feels threatened or harmed by any members of the cast and crew, if a case does occur where any sort of crime is done, it will be reported and dealt with.



There was only one crime actually done when we were filming for the music video, which was filming in Trafalgar Square at 1:57, where we managed to film very quickly, but then got told off by a guard, and then we left.
FAIRNESS

When filming with others, the broadcaster will make sure that every single person in the cast and crew is treated equally, and no one is treated different from another so that they will all feel like they are treated the same. This can apply to making sure everyone gets paid the right amount, no one is discriminated, and no one is talked to differently than others.



Throughout the whole production part of making the music video, we all made sure that every single person in the making of it was treated equally by other people, we all made sure that no one is treated differently such as at 0:10 we made one of the actresses get smacked in the face, but we treated everyone equally and made it not that hard of a smack, and also no one is treated unfairly, compared to others, since we all treated everyone the same with respect.
PRIVACY

Privacy basically covers a lot such as public places, private lives, etc. OFCOM does allow people to be able to use certain places; however they have to be able to have permission to use a certain area, by doing this when filming no one else is allowed to enter which makes people feel more safe in the area when filming, which makes them feel like no one will interrupt the filming process. This also covers over people who are under the age of 16 and will make sure that they are safe at all times, and are with a parent or guardian to take care of them.



When we were doing the filming for our music video, we made sure that we had permission to use some of the areas that we wanted to use, such as when we were outside Bens house at 1:52, we made sure that no one would interrupt the filming process, and everyone was safe in the area that they were in.
INSURANCE
TYPE OF INSURANCE
DESCRIBE WHAT THE TYPE OF INSURANCE COVERS
HOW WOULD IT HAVE AFFECTED YOUR PRODUCTION MANAGEMENT?
PUBLIC LIABILITY

Also known as the third party liability, this protects people from possible injury, or any damage that could happen to people’s properties. An example of public liability would be if you set up some equipment and that equipment falls and injures someone, they could claim against you for compensation


When we were setting up the equipment, we made sure that none of it, such as the camera/tripod fell on any of the members of the cast or crew, such as when we were doing the shots of one of the actresses face at 2:10, we made sure that the camera did not fall onto her and it didn’t, so gladly nobody got injured in the process of filming.
COMPLETION

Completion insurance which is also known as delayed completion, goes over income loss and additional expenses that might cause something that goes wrong with making the music video, such as if one of the main actors ends up getting injured, you would have to reshoot with a different actor to take their place.


When we were doing our music video, on the day when we were re shooting the scenes about the story between the two actresses at 0:08 and 1:55, one of them got injured before that day, so we had to replace them with another actress that looked similar, an example would be at 1:48 you could see we changed one of the actresses but it is not that noticeable, which was intended
