Frequently Asked Questions

We’re asking people to share pictures of their work on popular social media outlets using the hashtag #getcreative.

So that you know what we might do with your work, by using the hashtag you grant the BBC an irrevocable royalty-free licence to publish any such materials in all media in perpetuity, and you warrant that it’s your own original work or that you have the permission of the original creator to pass it on, is not defamatory or unlawful and does not infringe anyone else’s rights (including privacy rights).

We’ll showcase as much as we can but we can’t show everything and we won’t publish content or information if it is not editorially suitable or appropriate to do so (including but not limited to not meeting the Editorial Guidelines).

Before sharing any content of children, you should obtain written consent from the parents/guardians of any children (under the age of 18 years) featured in any such content.

By creating a project, you have created your own copyright. If you have incorporated other people’s copyright in your creative work, please ensure you have asked for their permission. Find out everything about how to protect your own copyright and how to seek permission to use the copyright works of others here.

Thank you but no. If you want to send a programme or script idea to the BBC there are established processes to follow. Here’s more information on how. If, however, you want to share a piece of creative writing with Get Creative then please do so on social media using #bbcgetcreative.
