Task 3

P6

You are learning how to run a business and you also have to consider any potential legal implications of using and editing graphical images.  It would be a disaster if you were taken to court and sued.  Complete research into this area and write a short report summarising you findings.

Legal implications of using and editing graphical images:

'In adhering to the spirit of regulation, the ultimate aim is to protect the clients whose assets fall within the ring-fence and prevent the ring-fenced relying in government support.' Nathan Willmott.


By the laws of copyright; you are unauthorised to use any image without the copyright holders permission (this is the original owner who had created the image to begin with) , unless the image has been modified with a licence (this involves getting approval from the owner). Even if the image has been manipulated in anyway shape or form it still belongs to the owner, so the original licence of the un-edited image then here applies.

In some circumstances you can use the image for print via purchasing them from a stock image sight, this is legal as you are then purchasing the image to then use. Advertising these images without permission is classed as illegal and can result in being taken to court and sued. Plagiarism also shows that this act is completely illegal as you are using someone else's work without their permission (rather like copying for your own benefit which is irresponsible and does not create any personal advantage for the own who is doing this). Some images are copyright free so they are capable of using them legally for personal usage, it is always best to check beforehand for clarification.  

In culmination, the legal implications that may cause law suits and other disasters that mainly need to be avoided are copyright issues. My findings show that copyright is the main issue that can be easily avoided by any means necessary. Copyright has been law implicated throughout many countries in the world. Renting copies for the public, broadcasting others copyrighted details can cause serious legal implications as you are using someone else's work and claiming it as your own. There are many other minor potential legal implications which are easy avoided whereas copyright needs to be avoided at all costs as the aftermath is unavoidable.

Unit 35: Task 2: P5

P5

Make the alterations as indicated by the client.

Repost the artwork when the alterations are complete.

www. P4 You have created original graphical images to meet a defined user need.

In order to achieve p5 I would like you to make the following changes.

The band to have effects on the circles making them some type of orb shape reminiscent of a ufo type image. You could add a glow effect.

The nursery you have not included contact details and the flyer could do with being less word. I would also like some photographs in there too.

The van while I like the effect on the van something a little more subtle with more eye catching text is what I require. I would like you to include telephone numbers too. 

The Nursery:

I have removed some of the word content and have kept it to the bare minimum so that it feels more like a flyer, the customers preference. I have also included an image of the nursery to show the environment and appearance that the parents would consider of importance. The customer also wanted a contact number so I had then included all contact information i.e. telephone, website and email.

The Band:

I tried to create a glow effect but Publisher does not yet have this plug-in, I compromised and added volume of a different colour to make the appearance of a glow appearing from behind.  Then I altered the image of the circles to make them appear as UFO's like the customer desired.

The Van:

I have made the van more subtle as the customer requested. I have also stuck to plain colours i.e. black which can be altered to the customers preference. I have also made the logo more basic so that it is easier to remember. The colours and fonts etc. can all be changed so that they are more appealing to the audience and customer.
