Anne Atkinson speaks at the Association of Commercial Stock Image Licensors (ACSIL) Footage Expo 2015 on the panel, “Intellectual Property on the Move.” The panel will discuss the legal challenges to footage use.

It ties many producers and their distributors in knots: what kind of risk is inherent in building media out of footage sources and archives?  While footage-based programs have circulated around the globe for decades, there is persistent anxiety that a single infringing use will drive a company to ruin. Will it?  Are underlying rights of music and trademarks and privacy a concern for all programming, or are news and documentary programs exempt somehow? This panel will address these issues in the complex world of intellectual property.
