Silver Age (1956-1969)
What is the best way to get ownership of a record cover or photo on a album or cd? Since the...?
...photo is the main re
the main reason people are buying the cd how can I get ownership of it if I did not draw it or photograph it and if I did photograph the cd cover am I automaticly the owner of the picture>?
Assuming that the cover is something other than just a color piece of paper, odds are that someone--probably the studio that produced the record or CD--copyrighted the cover.
If you can track them down, you can try to either purchase the rights outright or obtain a license to use it for your purposes. Like in any other business deal, the terms are negotiable.
Below is a link to help you track down the owner. http://www.copyright.gov/records/
If you are looking for something that was made by a studio that is defunct, you’ll have a bit more of a search on your hands. For instance, if Acme Recording registered the copyright and Acme Recording went bust years ago, it will take quite a bit of digging to see who has the rights. The copyright search will tell you how registered the copyright. But if they are dead or the rights were held by a corporation that was bought out or went under, the search gets considerably dicier.
If someone else has filed for the copyright and want to asset an adverse claim, you’ll have to sue and let a court resolve the matter.
If you think that you’ve got a good faith claim to the cover, you can always file for copyright registration yourself and see what happens. Then they can sue you, if they want to duke it out.
Good luck!
