1A) As a designer, my overall job is to make sure there are no copyright issues such as plagiarism, images, or designs when it comes to finding things online. As for images online, it’s important to make sure that the images I am/will be using is free to use and that there won’t have any copyright issues in the future. It’s very important to also give credit when you get any images online. As stated in Guide to Copyright, “If the designer permits a work to be copied, it is the copyright that gives the designer the right to negotiate for fees or royalties”. This is a perfect example of giving credit to copyright owners even if the images are free to use. Many people including designers out there probably don’t know the importance of ownership. It’s necessary to know the importance of copyrights which represent that they got ownership/permission from the original owner.
1B) So far at my internship, I have been doing many types of research, writing emails..etc. I haven’t really signed a confidentiality or non-disclosure agreement for my internship. I also don’t know what those meant. However, I have completed many internship forms with my contact information, and workplace. By all means, all parties meaning my internship supervisor, internship professor, and myself have signed and agreed to the contract agreement. I’m guessing those forms will be similar but also different from what I have completed.
