[DMCForum] Re: Home Video Recording Act.

["Flavia" <frvianna@xxxxxxxxx>]

Actually, I was recently on 2 tv commercials and I didn't get paid 
for it. I had to sign release for both. One of them I was beside the 
NJ attorney general and the public announcement was broadcasted at 
movie theaters and public channels in NJ. Some people in this list 
saw that video (which is also available online).
Then I was on a commercial for the NJ lottery, again, first thing we 
had to do was to sign the release. 
On the other hand, I was on the local newspaper and I don't remember 
signing a release....
I have no idea if it works the same for videos such as the Pigeon 
Forge one though!

Happy 2005 to everyone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
