QUESTION
Do I have to blur faces in my videos?
Asked on Oct 04th, 2014 on Libel, Slander and Defamation - Florida
More details to this question:
I have copyrights, trademarks, and a company. I am going to have a game show that will be posted onto YouTube . The contestants will be service workers like delivery drivers for pizza restaurants. They will be given the chance to win money. I have consent forms written up. My specific question is do I have to blur their faces if they do not sign or if they request for me to do so. I will be in public or on my private property. Also, if you have time, do I have to blur out company logos for the contestant and what should my consent for include when it comes to key points. The show could make money off a YouTube partnership. Thank you for your time
