Resolving Legal and Ethical issues



When creating this product legal and ethical issues have to be considered for. Such as the music for the show we cannot take a music track which is not royalty free as this is illegal. This will cause complications for the product which might halt the time of production and also might not be able to even screen the show if copyrighted music is heard without the use of a license. The plot and the story of the show can’t be taken from another SCI-FI show as well as this will be just copying ideas and would be stealing another IP’s content for our gain so we should be able to research and create our own ideas for the show while including the brief which was given towards us.

The ethical issues that may arise is the use of our makeup since one of our actors is Muslim the use of proper gelatine will go against his beliefs and wouldn’t be allowed so a substitute gelatine will have to be used when creating our special effects.

When creating our product, we have to follow our risk assessment to avoid the risk of injury or damage to our crew and actors. If not, then they can get seriously hurt and halt our production time. Also by not sticking and taking care of our actors we can get in some legal troubles as we are not taking care of our crew while on set and that is our responsibility when carrying out the main task of filming.    

The copyright issues also include the footage that we use for our backgrounds as well since we will use stock footage of space and different galaxies we should make sure they are free to use and not taken without permission. The footage we will use will come from Pixabay and some footage from their will require paying or having a licensee if we take one of these videos without paying or an agreement from the user we can get a copyright strike which again can cause legal issues for our production and our show. So, to stop that from happening will have to search carefully for our stock footage and make sure it can be used for reuse and have permission from the owner of the footage if needed.

How meaning is created in Strayed Above The final media product is in line with client brief due to the visual and special effects. The visual effects applied which include creating a mask path around screens , windows as well as compositing footage to fit within a certain scale. The visual effects show the damage of the  infrastructure to the spaceship as the screens in the spaceship go dark or down meaning the signal has been lost or damaged as before it was working fine before the explosion. The special effects makeup used within the teaser scene as well show how the explosion of the ship has affected crew members such as Kyle Black and in which shows how life is on board the spaceship as communication systems have stopped working and the crew have taken damage. The visual effects also create a sense of realism towards the final product as the visual effects display different space scenes and mask over windows to give the illusion that the characters are in space as we se...
