I have a day job, working in new media for a large corporation.
I also have a website where I feature my work, to get freelance gigs (planetfallstudios.com).
Years ago, I featured my day job work on my freelance site, in which I hosted materials I made for the corp, on my freelance site, with links to my work on the corp site.
The corp made me remove all corp related material and mention from my site.
It was said that it appeared as though my freelance studio presented the corp as a client, which was not the case, since I am an employee there.
Valid enough.
I am redesigning my site to now become simply a showcase for work I created; an online portfolio, and the url will now simply be my name (jefferywwright.com) with no mention of any freelance studio.
Just a site to present my work with a form to contact me.
Do I have a right, to present work I did as a professional creative?
Are there any legal resources available for me to defend my position?
Thanks.
