Ok here is what I'm doing. May be right, may be wrong...And I can't say it in 50 words...
I am only a secondary producer under the law. I do not shoot content. I only
buy content sets and build web sites.
I first buy a content set and the set must come with a scan of the photo ID's
of every performer in the set. ( I'm not sure if I need scans of the model releases or not really, but I like to get those to, comments?).
I then create a link on my main page(index.html) of the web site where the
content will be shown.
The link reads: "18 U.S.C. 2257 Record-Keeping Requirements Compliance Statement."
Link this to a page containing the primary producer and yourself as the secondary producer. You need to list your place of buisness on this page
even if its your home.
I bought a cheap 2nd computer and will stick it in a unused room of my house
Nothing will be on this computer except my 2257 records.
I made a folder named 2257 Records.
Under this I make sub folders named as follows:
"lastname,firstname - name of website"
where names are the perfromers names and website is where on the web
they appear.
I put all the photos of the perticular set under these folders.
I also put the Photo ID of each performer in the appropreiate folder.
I also create a text file in each folder named "associated URLs" which list
all urls the content appears on.
I also create a txt file named "primary producer" and list who I bought the
content from.
So if a inspector knocks on my door, i'll lead him to the unused room containing my records computer and let him have at it.
I hope this will do it. If I try to understand all the clerical parts of the new
2257 I go insane. My basic idea is to be as organized as possible so the
inspector can find whatever he might be looking for.
If they throw me in jail because the size of my font is incorrect or one of
my records is out of alphbetical order then I guess I'm screwed.
Feel free to point out any mistakes I'm making...I could use the advice..
Good Luck
