WEEK 9 EOC Letters Of Permission


I think the letters of permission are a great idea for any project just to let the owner or whoever is in charge of what is going on. What project you’re doing and if you do have their permission to be on the property, use their art work, or any intellectual property of theirs. When I first got this project I didn't know how to start it or what to talk about never did it cross my mind to try to do this for any project that i would ever have to do. I just thought you can just ask permission somehow I never thought about writing a letter to do it! I thought this was a great way of preparing me for future projects. I didn’t know what topic to talk about, but the more research I did the more ideas I got. Now that I do know more about letters of permission I can think about many things you need to ask permission for. Simple things like doing a photo-shoot in front of a wall painting. I was doing a music video in front of the Palms Hotel and Casino they had a really cool painting on the wall little did our crew know we needed rights to be in front of it filming while we walked by it, one of the casino’s workers told us we could not film in front of the picture because we needed permission. My crew thought she was just being rude or we did not know why we couldn’t film in front of it, it kind of made us upset. Little did we know why she said that not even the guy with the camera know why she told us that. Now that I do know more about all of this I completely understand why we were not allowed to film in front of it, we had no rights to it.
