thinking about facetime photoshoots
This article from The Fashion Law involves a dece amount of legalese, but in light of Rob Pattinson’s splashy GQ selfie cover from this week (can I just say that I really enjoy how GQ steadfastly refused to call it a selfie; maybe that can be a whole other discussion on that means these days), it’s v. interesting to consider how the ubiquity of FaceTime photoshoots — for glossy magazines and fashion advertorial alike — changes how we think about creative ownership, copyright law, and the everlasting question of who really owns a picture.

I seek editors to help lead my 30+-person team at Business Insider. Both roles would involve being a direct manager of section editors as well as a senior writer or three. They are on two desks: strategy, which is like HBR meets Vox, and executive lifestyle, which is like Robb Report meets NYT Styles. Key themes include money, power, and the lack of it. On-staff management experience is a must, as are digital editing chops. Apply here —> Executive life, senior editor + Leadership editor. If you or someone you know might be interested, please do shoot me a note.
