Pictures/photos required

[Carlton06]

Hi guys,
I am a year 12 media student doing a magazine on AFL, and to obtain top marks you need to use pictures that are not owned by someone (eg herald sun). So i was wondering where i would be able to get pictures from matches, training etc that are not copyrighted.

I take photoes myself when i can at games but they are not that good as i sit on level 3 and i cannot get to all games.

Thanks a million,
Blueboy

I imagine anyone that is gonna have photos available of multiple games/good quality etc on the internet is going to have them copyrighted.

One thing you can do, although they won't be of the matches, is to go round the boards and get photos of the club's trainings? Though I got the impression you are doing match reports and stuff, not just a general essay of AFL.

i've seen them around here
on various team boards and also the "photography board"

I think all images you will find are copyrighted.

You're sure to fail if you pass other people's work off as your own.

I do (if I say so myself) have a good one of the John Kennedy statue at Waverly.

Best of luck!

PM you fellow Blue R1KSTA.

He took the infamous O'Hailpin v Cloke pre-season stoush photos.





Or just search for the thread here on the main board or on the Carlton board...

If you send me a private message with your email (and what players you would be interested in) I would be happy to supply you with photos from the Brisbane Lions training sessions I have. They are high quality taken with a digital SLR.

Mine would also have to be used with the Creative Common licence but seeing it is for school work you may find there are different rules about copyright anyway.

I know for example in my university degree we are able to use songs etc in our video work without having to apply for permission as it is assessment based only and will never be put into the public eye/earn us any money - but you may want to double check this with your teacher.

For a school assignment there'd be no issues with using any photos, as long as if the pics aren't yours you acknowledge the source of the photos - you'll often see on newspaper articles a caption and then an acknowledgement; as long as you do that, you'll be fine.

That being the case, you're welcome to use any of mine - click here for the latest AFL page and follow the photo gallery links on the left hand column.
