We recently sat down with one of our heroes, Patricia Aufderheide, the co-author of the essential Documentary Filmmakers’ Statement of Best Practices in Fair Use. Patricia’s work enabled filmmakers whose work built upon other works to understand their rights, acquire the necessary errors and omissions insurance (E&O), and sleep at night. Diane Carson, the co-director of the highly informative and engrossing educational film Other People’s Footage: Copyright & Fair Use joined us in this in depth discussion of fair use and what filmmakers need to know.

As luck would have it, fair use advocate Diane Carson, co-director of an essential fair use film Other People’s Footage was also able to join us and share the stage.
