April takes down comeback teaser after Dove Cameron called out her unexpected appearance in it

[Kami the II.]

 

DSP Media used Dove Cameron's photo in April's teaser image without consent. 

 

On October 4 KST, April announced their comeback with the 6th mini album 'The Ruby'. The comeback photo showed pages taped on the wall. One page featured the American actress Dove Cameron. 

 

 

It seems Dove had no idea about her cameo in April's teaser. In confusion, she tweeted, "wait.... that's me?"

Even though the Dove girl has the right to do so, was that really necessary?

It sucks for the fans, but Dove is a prominent part of the teaser, you would think DSP would've got her consent first.

[MicrowavedTeaforYourSoul]

This proved that DSP just found some random posters online and used it

[Omni]

Ahh, it's been a while. I missed DSPs incompetence.

[pinkpanda_spirit]

[iJungwha]

But do they really need to credit her? It's a poster.

a poster with her face on it, of course they need consent.

if they don't personally own that photo or the rights to it, they need permission 

 

that's how it works.

the k-industry really is bad with stealing, they really need to do better 

[Lilies]

That's embarasing

[nareurong]

Awkward. Just pay for a stock photo.

But movies etc use iconography all the time? Like when there are posters of x celebrity in the room, or when they are wearing t-shirt with whatever symbol. Afaik they don't have to pay or inform the creators of the product.

from Gary Elmer, a film producer:

 

NO LOGOS: If you are after conventional distribution and sales for your movie then you need approval for EVERY logo that appears prominently. This means turning every bottle, box, can, wrapper or paper around backwards. Conversely fabricating fake lables for everything shown is even better.

Yes to logos: If your independent film is not destined for greatness and wide audience don't worry.

Oof almost got sued lol

I guess most of the time they're sponsored, because they're so common in movies and tv series

[Shino]

DSP being DSP 

[HotTea]

That's embarrassing

[t a e c h u u]

[Yeddong]

"netizens fired criticism" typical from allkpoop.

[seokii]

lol... I know DSP was technically in the wrong but that's funny. I wonder if they thought she would never notice? or did they have no idea the pretty model they found was that famous?

[silicon soul]

Lol what a rookie mistake.
