Relevant legal and ethical issues
. Legal
Copyright, Designs and Patents Act 1988
The law gives the creators of literary, dramatic, musical, artistic works, sound recordings,

ways in which their material may be used.

The rights cover: broadcast and public performance, copying, adapting, issuing, renting and
lending copies to the public.

This is a CIVIL law not a CRIMINAL law.

This means it is not a criminal offence to break the law, which could result in a fine or jail
sentence.

Instead, the person who owns the copyright has to sue the person they believe has broken
the law. The case is then heard in a civil court and if the person is found guilty of breaking
copyright law then they will have to pay damages to the owner of the copyright. The amount
of damages is set by the court.

offensive or explicit content such as violence or sexual content my photos will strictly be
based on hip=pop and fashion and won’t include anything obscene.
Trespass
This is a civil law.
Trespass to land consists of any unjustifiable intrusion by a person upon the land in
possession of another.
Civil trespass is actionable in the courts.

permission off the land owner to use the location because this could result in breaking the
trespassing law.
Privacy
The introduction of the Human Rights Act 1998 incorporated into English law the European
Convention on Human Rights.

Article 8.1 of the ECHR provides an explicit right to respect for a private life:
Article 8 protects your right to respect for your private life, your family life, your home and
your correspondence (letters, telephone calls and emails, for example).

Defamation Act 2013
This Act reformed defamation law on issues of the right to freedom of expression and the
protection of reputation. It also comprised a response to perceptions that the law as it stood
was giving rise to libel tourism and other inappropriate claims.

The Act changed existing criteria for a successful claim, by requiring claimants to show
actual or probable serious harm (which, in the case of for-profit bodies, is restricted to
serious financial loss), before suing for defamation in England or Wales.

It also enhanced existing defences, by introducing a defence for website operators hosting
user-generated content (provided they comply with a procedure to enable the complainant to
resolve disputes directly with the author of the material concerned or otherwise remove it),
and introducing new statutory defences of truth, honest opinion, and "publication on a matter
of public interest“.

LIBEL
A written, published false statement that is damaging to a person's reputation.

SLANDER
Making a false spoken statement damaging to a person's reputation.

Defamation is a civil law and so you would need to sue someone who you believe has
damaged your reputation.
How does it apply to my photoshoot?
This will apply to my photoshoot because my photo is not set out to ruin anyone’s reputation
or show any of my models in a bad light. I make my models dress or pose in a certain way
that damages their own reputation or someone else’s.
Ethical constraints
Rather than legal constraints, ethical issues are based on judgement. They are what society
considers as morally acceptable.

If something is seen as ethically wrong as it is first investigated to see if it is breaking any

laws. However, if it is not in violation of any of these laws then it comes under ethical issues.

This means that no law has been broken, however the public may see it as offensive or
controversial. Many ethical concerns are raised by groups of specific people. These groups
may find the publication offensive, due to how the minority are represented.

Ethical concerns which come into media production are things such as:
• Protecting under 18s
How does it apply to my photoshoot?
I will protect the under 18s in my photo shoot by making sure that my photots are appropiete
for a teen audience and that no explicit or offensive content is included. My photo will appeal
to my target audience because it will tie in with modern fashion.
• Representation of age, gender, race, disability, sexuality and religion

I will try to be respectful to all these different groups in my photo shoot and try to represent
these people in a positive my photo wont discriminate anyone in any way and I will make
sure that my photo is appropriate.
