Yeah, seems like not your problem. You sell posters to people and what they choose to do with them is their issue, not yours. Right?

We have given permission for our posters to be used in a few movies but never from the band. I think it's up to the film company to secure the bands permission but I could be wrong.
I would tell them to contact the bands management to make sure. The same argument could be argued for allowing posters to be used in books/magazines as well.

We've never cleared band. That's for the studio. The last stuff we sent a few weeks back we only had to clear that the images were not anyone's copyright but ours. When we had stuff in one of the Real World houses they had such a tight deadline that we just re did the art with no band name and they hung those.
I wait to get aids as of Scrojo... Thanks!

I have gotten requests a bunch of times and they always have a contract that they want me to sign saying I have full rights to the poster and that there is not a third party, etc...
I never want to sign that because the band and their name is the third party to me. I always have them rewrite the agreement that I sign, that states that I only have rights to the image and not the band name, etc... I sign that and point them to the band or their management, if I cannot get it myself. It would be up to them to get the band to approve...

We recently were approached by the studio that made the new Ben Stiller movie, Greenberg. They wanted two specific posters and we signed an agreement for the rights to the artwork. When we mailed the posters, I included an extra Powerhouse promo poster and some other stuff just to say thanks. I heard back from them a few days later saying that they weren't going to use the band posters because they couldn't get the rights (I'm assuming from the bands). I suppose that means the studio felt that it was their responsibility to secure the rights from the band. The cool thing is that they decided to use the Powerhouse promo poster instead.
