I had a falling out the with lead actress of my film and she quit. I don't mind so much that she quit, because we only filmed a few small scenes and the project wasn't really going anywhere anyway.
What I'm concerned about is the rights to the footage. Unfortunately, I didn't have her sign anything yet. And now she is saying I have no rights to use anything and she wants everything removed online with her in it. She also said to release the footage to her, so I'm guessing that means she wants the footage too.
Am I legally obligated to honor all her requests? Do I have any rights to the footage at all?
Thanks
