IANAL, but I believe all you need is a video release form. These usually have statements that say:
I consent to be videotaped and to the use of these recordings for X, Y, Z (publicity, advertising, to be put online, to be used by the school, to be archived, for educational use, etc... insert whatever specifics or vague phrases here) I release (you) from all claims, etc. This is irrevocable. Blah blah. And then they sign and date it. You can put the Creative Commons license and the specific use in the initial part. I'm sure you can find some mock ones on the web, too! Or you can email your school's OGC or media department. I'm sure they have set releases that you can use as templates. -Adi On Thu, Dec 2, 2010 at 3:44 AM, Parker <[email protected]> wrote: > This week in "CC license your X"... > > Preview: I'm looking for stock waivers to give to groups at Dartmouth > that they can have lecturers to sign, giving the group permission to > release a video of the lecture under a Creative Commons license.
