Public Liability

To protect my business from any third party claims it is important that I get my photographers covered so that if they are shooting in public and a member of the public falls over their bag they are covered and the insurance.

Photogaurd are an insurance company who protect photographers so that if a member of public tries to claim against the business we are protected by Photogaurd. They also protect the business from equipment we own such as cameras lenses so that if they are accidently damaged or stolen the insurer can cover the business. And does not affect the production schedule or launch of the magazine as they can provide an instant replacement

Street Photography

If I was to shoot any of the images on the public street there is a law that is in place that anyone who is concerned about being in an image that I have taken can approach me and inquire about what I am doing and if they are not happy about being in the image I would have to delete it in front of them unless a law enforcement officer was present who has authority to asses the situation and make a decision. http://www.clickinmoms.com/blog/street-photography-and-the-law-7-things-you-need-to-know/

Health & Safety at the Workplace

Under health and safety law, the primary responsibility for this is down to employers. Workers have a duty to take care of their own health and safety and that of others who may be affected by your actions at work. Workers must co-operate with employers and co-workers to help everyone meet their legal requirements. To make sure that my employees understand this I make sure that all members of staff have an introductory health and safety session which includes videos of what and what not to do as well as signing legal health and safety documents to state that they understand what to do if there is a safety concern to staff.

Watermark

Watermark is protecting and work that my magazine company is producing. It is a faint mark behind the image to show that the images or work is protected and cannot be used or copy unless they have contacted the business to seek permission to use it if they have to. I have used watermark for my magazine to protect it and the images that I have used for my front cover double page spread and any other images

my photographers have taken and beenused in my magazine as other competitors could potentially use them if I did not watermark the work.

Ethical and Legal

Please see the blog page for the word document

Evidence of Photography hazard

This is a wet floor which has not got any hazard sign so if I had not noticed this is it could have potentially caused someone falling over.

The second hazard I noticed in the room was this loose wire which could have potentially been live and electrocuted someone walking pass.

Locations I Intend to take Images in

Permission to take photographs

Here is evidence from Mr Mitchells PA to confirm that he has granted permission for the images to be taken in MS1

Contacting the Artist to confirm the photoshoot

This is an email I sent to the model to confirm that they are able at the selected time and location which he was.

Contacting NME

I tried to make contact with NME on three occasions to find out how there location recce is planned and what risk assessments they have to do before the shoot.

Evidence of Conducting an Interview

I had to have a face to face interview with the artist after he won his award so that I could get a feel for his emotion and excitement about winning. Also I will use this interview for both the double page spread inside the hardcopy of the magazine and on the website for readers to see.

Conclusion

Working through this learning outcome I was able to find any potential hazards and locations that were not safe to work in or what precautions had to be made before shooting in case any of the potential hazards occurred.

Following on the legal and ethical issues help me develop an idea of what I could and could not include in my magazine due to editors code of practice or because the copyright laws which could prevent from using some work.
