Thank you so much, very helpful indeed!

Hi all,

I'm hoping one of your freelancer veterans can help with this.

I am hiring a freelancer via the freelancer.com website to record some audio files. The scripts have been written by me and all the freelancer will be doing is providing the actor and the recording facilities (providing the final sound file).

From researching I think hiring a freelancer in this sense is covered by ´contract of service´, meaning that the freelancer has no automatic rights to copyright, as they are hired to do some work.

However, I just wanted to make sure that nothing else was needed to ensure that it is understood that I own the copyrights for all audio.

To clarify, the scripts are mine but the audio itself comes from the freelancer. I pay the freelancer for his work. I need to be sure that once the work is complete, the freelancer has no affiliation with the work produced.

Thanks in advance!
