LEGAL CONSTRAINTS
When you carry out some project, there’s some laws that you have to keep while doing it. That is called Legal Constraints (also known as Legal Implications).
There’s some terms required:
- ETHICAL GUIDELINE
It’s literally the guidelines that you have to follow when you’re filming or carrying out project ethically. It’s not codified rules, but you should keep it.
- INDUSTRY CODE OF PRACTICE
There’s some rules between your company and customers. That is Industry code. It may be mandatory, or maybe not. But just like Ethical guidelines, you should keep it because that is practice.
- RELEASE FORM
I think I can replace this category with my older post: Release form Report
If I have to say it by one sentence; document written for some lawsuit problem.
- PUBLIC LIABILITY INSURANCE
You need insurance for contrasting some accidents and problems during your project. And you need not only Employment Insurance, also Public Liability Insurance. Public Liability Insurance is insurance for damaging third party’s property.
- COPYRIGHT
When you take a picture or filming a video or do whatever creative, you get a Copyrights. And also when you want use someone else’s assets, you have to pay or make it up for them in anyway.
If you didn’t get permission by copyrighter, you’ll get punished.

Every nation have associations that protect their citizen’s copyright. In Korea, we have Korea Copyright Commission. In England, they have British Copyright Council.
Here’s some example of Legal constraint of filming in locations:
- I want to film in Museum / Art gallery:
– Some museums and art galleries forbid filming inside because they have to care damaging artworks. So first, you have to contact manager or administrator.
– If you got permission and filmed, you have to get another permission by: copyrighters.
– If the way you’re gonna use the film is non-profit like news report, you don’t need to get a permission. But when you get some profit with it, you have to get a permission from copyrighter.
- I want to film in Public locations:
– Also, first, you have to contact manager or administrator. But in this condition, the manager or administrator should from government.
– Let’s assume you’ve taken some video from N-Seoul tower. There’s some murals around the tower, and they’re in your video too. Do I have to get a permission for them? The answer is: NO.
