The joys and pains of new media

We all make mistakes. I certainly have made one. I thought I checked out the internet aspect of this project careful prior to production, both for music rights and acting. I knew my music rights would have to be paid for by the year. Those I have secured, as planned. The Actors rights are another thing.

I was an actress myself. I want to protect all infringement of rights. I didn't even post images of my actors on my blog or site until I called the SAG office to make sure I could prior to the internet rights being secured, At that time it didn't seem like a major hassle to get the internet rights for a 4 minute student film. Now I will most likely not be able to show this film anywhere on the internet. Hard lesson to learn. Tough one. I am still waiting calls from the California SAG office, just to get information, but I feel sorry for my actors most of all. the only way I could pay them was having a good product being seen. Many miracles are needed now. Only God... Only God because the greed of this world is crazy!!!
