P3 - Legal & Ethical issues / BBFC
Task 1
Legal & Ethical issues
Start to source all the relevant legal and ethical issues your film may have. Pick out which acts of copyright or relevant ethical issues a horror may contain and how you would resolve the issues.
- What legal and ethical issues might occur during your production process?
- Will any content cause offence? Why? Consider violence, offensive material through behaviour /language.
- Is your film opening considerate of your target audience? Where would you place your film and why?
- Have you used anything that will cause copyright issues?
Once you have found out all the legal and ethical issues that your film may contain, start to think about how you would overcome or resolve these issues.
E.G. Is your film for educational purposes? Used the relevant release forms for actors/actresses? Got permissions forms signed off for copyright use of soundtracks? etc.
