Shaun and Rebecca discuss the issues around designers’ rights to their work. They talk about a recent situation where a company used photos of designer Natalie Myers’s work without her permission and modified the pictures a little with the help of AI. They discuss this issue, how having no rights over the pictures of their work is not fair to designers, and finding a fair solution to this issue.
In this episode, Rebecca and Shaun discuss:
- How designers are often overlooked for bringing food and maintaining morale on job sites while photographers profit off photos without the designer’s consent
- The unauthorized brand use of photos of a designer’s work
- The Natalie Meyer situation where a company used her photos without permission
- Photographer-designer relationships
- The complexity of photo licensing contracts and how the system favors photographers over designers
- The lack of control designers have over photos of their own work
- How designers can have more control over their work
- Finding a fair way for photographers and designers to share rights and payments
- Photographers can share licensing rights and revenue with designers when companies use photos of their designs
