INDEXAnother Filmmaker Steals My Material!
10 years, 9 months ago - Daniel Johnson
Hey all,
I have met so many paranoid writers and directors, always deeply concerned people will steal their material - I was never one of those. I guess I just liked to trust that people in this industry are good and truthful.
But of course, like in any industry, that is not always true.
Have a read of this - this guy plagiarised me and made the mistake of leaving my name in his coding. http://www.danieljohnsonfilms.co.uk/another-acting-showreel-company-plagiarises-my-material/
That article also links to a previous time when another acting showreel company literally put one of my videos on their site and claimed it as their own.
Do everything you can to protect your work! If what you do is good, people will try claim it as their own somehow!

you can still see it is 'Hungry Wolf Productions' from the weblink, but I never said that....., my avatar did!!
It's funny though, as they have no content online today, maybe they are waiting for someone else to film it first?
