Document background
A Film Copyright Notice is essential for protecting intellectual property rights in cinematographic works under Indonesian law. This document should be used whenever a film, documentary, or similar audiovisual work is completed and ready for distribution or exhibition. The notice serves multiple purposes: it establishes the copyright holder's legal claim under Indonesian Law No. 28 of 2014, provides clear identification of the protected work, warns against unauthorized use, and facilitates proper licensing and permissions. It's particularly important in Indonesia's growing film industry, where digital distribution and international co-productions are becoming more common. The notice should be displayed at the beginning or end of the film, included in all distribution materials, and attached to any official documentation related to the work.
