Not really on TV, but it's an MA sighting...

Jim Sachs · 05-19-2006, 05:57 PM

Cute.

MA was also featured fairly prominently on NBC's "Las Vegas" last week. It's been visible in the show several times this season, but this was the longest unobstructed shot it's ever had on TV. And... one guy was so smitten with it that he actually scoured the Internet until he found us, and bought a copy. Probably the first known instance where major media exposure has netted us a sale.

Operative word being "known" of course...

Being a 3D digital artist myself, Things like this irk me to no end. But you do not need to take it as far as court. THe production company has a legal department and a simple certified letter to them would probably bring a satisfactory solution. You have to consider that it was a key element is a important scene in the show, not just a incidental background shot.

If you are the copyright holder to that work then the production company Must contact you and get permission. Usually the legal departments are VERY implicit in these matters. So a well crafted letter to them will usually get a rapid and satisfactory response and action. Remember that somewhere down the line season episode DVD's will be released and people will make plenty of money off the sales. You should at the very least have credits, and a small royalty or some other compensation for such use.

This is SOP in the TV and Movie industry. nothing unusual or out of the ordinary. This case may have been some oversight of a rushed production schedule rather than blatant misuse so in all liklyhood a certified letter to the production company and legal department would straighten things out.

Not a tv sighting but in a videogame. I was playing Dreamfall: The Longest Journey and from what I can tell this looks like Jims backdrop pasted togther a few times.

drfish · 06-18-2006, 08:01 PM

I guess they couldn't be bothered to get a screen grab without a purple tang in it?

Surferminn · 06-18-2006, 10:44 PM

nice pics.

patscarr · 06-19-2006, 09:41 PM

Hey, that's pretty cool, Derrek. Thanks for the pics. It does look exactly like Jim's background pasted together a few times.

Jim Sachs · 06-19-2006, 10:14 PM

Yes, Reichart is gathering the legal team...

Went to our kids book fair yesterday and they had MA3 on a 42-46in tv at our elementary school's library.
