5. Your own argument and opinions. Did you agree or disagree with the rulings. Provide some authority for your argument such as quotes from the book.


1.    1. What would happen if a student used video equipment from his school for financial gain?- I think that if a student used a piece of school equipment for a freelance project and gets paid for it that it should be alright. We go to a school for a certain type of media that is almost infinite in price range. There is no way that a student could get the type of equipment that is needed for a professional shoot. We pay thousands of dollars to be able to use this equipment, but we really cant.


2.    2. If a student is asked by their internship to use their student discount to purchase software or equipment, what could the legal repercussions be? - I think that the student could get into a lot of trouble trying to get software on a discount for his internship. You would be breaking a licensing agreement with the software company.

3.    3. How is using music in my portfolio not copyright infringement?- Im really confused on how when i use music in a portfolio, how is it not copyright infringement?  Im not selling the music for profit, but i am using it for furthering my career. So Im still curious to how Im allowed to do that.

4.    4. How can Freemont Street take a cameraman’s camera if he/she is shooting on Freemont Street.

5.    5. What could happen if a film has a product in it and the company of the company has not been contacted?

6.   6.  While on a production, can a minor be on film without consent from a parent?

7.    7. Why is it illegal to burn a DVD off the internet that you did not purchase?

8.    8. If someone uses some footage that’s not there’s and they don’t give credit to the artist, what could happen?

9.    9. If someone is filming in a public place, do you have to tell everyone that you’re filming?


1010. What if a camera man does not have a press pass and puts the footage from an event onto his/her website?
