DEVIOUS - THE FINAL PRODUCT
As we are a strictly Amateur production we are bound
by copyright law not to make money from our production. The BBC copyright
the Doctor Who concept as well as the Tardis sets etc. The Daleks' copyright
is held by Terry Nation. We can therefore not sell our video even in the
manner of the BBV Video releases such as The Stranger series, since we
use characters and ideas from the BBC series. We are not averse to investigating
any way in which people could have a copy if a donation were made to charity,
though this also seems very unlikely. Rather the final piece will only
be seen by friends and colleagues of us the makers, on a free basis. Maybe
something will come up in the future - who knows, though we are not actively
seeking anything - we have made the film's subject Doctor Who because we
like the programme - not because we want to make money!
We have decided that our next project will NOT contain
any copyright material AT ALL - it will be a totally original piece of
work - one which could be sold if we felt it could be! Whether it would
be Science Fiction is another matter.
