Okay so say i have this coke can and i think it will look very cool on this fence rail on a foggy morning,i take the picture and everyone loves it....So i decide to print it and sell it and man people are buying this image and love it....
My question is can i get in trouble with Coke since i'm using a Coke can in the picture.Just as a model poses on a car,Fords not going to sue the photographer for using a Ford car in the picture.But theres a limit to this...For example i cant super impose Daffy duck into a picture and sell it as such that i know.What about games?....If the Monopoly game is in a image that i sell is that subject to copyright laws.
I'd think Coke with all the advertising they do would not mind at all.Free advertising for them.With everything copyrighted whats usable and whats not? The Monopoly game,seems like that would be fine...Just as the Coke can...Anyone know?Hear of any stories regaurding usage of something by a photographer perhaps? Is there a Lawyer in the house?What about music cds where the covers kind of a key part of the image something like that?
