**ASMP Colorado Open Aperture - Getting Copyright Right**
With Attorney, Dave Ratner

Are you a seasoned pro navigating the changing landscape of copyright and generative AI as it shows up more and more in everyday editing tools? Are you just starting your photography career and want to be sure you’re protecting your intellectual property and estimating and bidding with copyright in mind right from the start?

This is the presentation for you!

Join ASMP Colorado, CPAC, and founder of the Creative Law Network, Dave Ratner, for a presentation and Q&A on all things copyright, from the basics of registration, to tying copyright to your estimates and bids, to how the use of generative AI tools in editing is changing the copyright conversation and what you need to know to protect your work.

You don’t want to miss this valuable discussion!
