By Lara Sinclair, The Australian: According to Naked Communications co-founder Jon Wilkins (left), ad creatives must stop plagiarising YouTube videos and pay the authors of any artistic works they adapt for commercial purposes.
If they failed to do so, says Wilkins, agencies risked talent brokers setting up their own agencies to give advertisers direct access to scriptwriters, comedy writers and professionals working in other creative arts.
Wilkin’s made the interesting remark at the 36th Annual Caxton Awards and Seminar, held tonight for the Australian Newspaper industry at the Quay West Resort, in Noosa.
