Hi all,
I'm working on an exhibit about/for children and want to use images of
them on a few panels. I was considering flickr, and I realize it's
legal for museums to do so, but then I got concerned about model
releases. Parents tend to be pretty protective of their children's
images. I recall a horror story I heard in an exhibition course about
a museum having to take down an exhibit because a visitor sued. The
images are small (6" x 4" tops).
My museum doesn't have a policy on model releases, but we don't rely
on fair use when it comes to copyright issues. We tend to buy stock
images or use creative commons-licensed images.
Thoughts?
Thanks,
Shana
