I would think that if the lecturer signs a release to the college, allowing them to repurpose the presentation into video and agrees to the intended use (current and futuristically speaking) by the college, there's no infringement. In saying this, however, it would seem that if the lecturer is not only presenting verbally, but also giving a powerpoint presentation and that, too, is videotaped, any consent the lecturer gives would not cover any third party material contained within the powerpoint presentation unless the lecturer has obtained the appropriate permission to transfer those rights.

Hello everyone,

I have a question that I hope that you can help me with. If this isn't
the proper forum for this question, I apologize in advance.

If someone comes to our college to give a lecture, and the college videotapes it, who holds the copyright? Assume that the lecturer did not
request that the lecture be videotaped, but had no objection to the college doing so. I'm wondering if the fact that the college affixed the
lecture, rather than the lecturer, has any effect on copyright.

Thanks for any advice you can give me.

Graham
