SCENARIO 1

Congratulations - you’ve won an award! Your student poster design, which included photographs and typography created by other people, was given a prestigious honour and posted on the website of the group that gives out the awards.

Now, one of the photographers is contacting you about using their image in your work. 

  • What are the key legal and ethical issues for this scenario?

  • What is your strategy to make this situation "right"?

  • What would you do differently next time?
