# Media credits

Photography used across the Kapwa Business Alliance proposal, board deck
and landing-page concept. Each photo page was fetched and its licence
read on 2026-08-06; every Unsplash+ (paid Getty) result encountered
during sourcing was rejected and is not used here.

## Generated brand scenes

Supplied by the founder. These are
**generated brand scenes — not licensed stock, and not photographs of real
people or real businesses.** The signage in them names invented businesses
(Lutong Pinoy Filipino Eatery, Pinoy Care, Pinoy Foundation); none is a
Florida Pinoy member and none appears in the directory.

| `family-hero` | `assets/photos/family_hero1.png` | Directory page hero |

Because the imagery is generated there is no photographer to credit and no
third-party licence to check. The open question is the opposite one: these
read as documentary photographs of Filipino-American business owners, so
every placement is captioned as illustrative.

## Generated mockups of REAL businesses — read this first

Five featured listings carry card art that is a **generated illustration of a
real company that has not opted in**: 8888 FilAm Realty, Aguilar Pierce Law,
DeVore Capital Contracting, Eleven Dash LLC, and Event Heroes of Tampa Bay.
Sources in `assets/photos/businesses/`.

These are the highest-risk images on the site. Each renders a real company’s
name and branding — and, for DeVore, its real state licence CCC1332275 —
around a person who is not that company’s owner. 8888 FilAm Realty’s broker
is Jose Amoroso; the figure shown is not him. Published unlabelled beside that
company’s real phone and email, they would read as documentation of the
actual business.

Two safeguards, and both must stay:

1. `ILLUSTRATIVE MOCKUP` is burned into the pixels by
   `tools/build_featured_media.py`, so the label survives screenshotting,
   hotlinking and any surface nobody remembered to update.
2. The site renders a Mockup badge on the card and tile, an
   `Illustrative mockup` pill on the profile, and a notice above the contact
   block stating the business is real but the image is not a photograph of it.

Neither may be removed without the owner’s written sign-off. The right fix
is to replace them with the owner’s own photography, not to drop the label.

## Featured-listing card art

Separate from the stock set above. Built by `tools/build_featured_media.py`
into `site/public/img/featured/`, from each featured business's own project
folder — so these DO depict the named business, unlike the stock photos.

| Card | Copied from | Provenance | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| `pastry-eiffel` | `pastryeiffel/docs/image/image 9.png` | Owner-supplied brand shot, chosen by the founder and taken from the Pastry Eiffel project's own image set; the box in frame carries their wordmark. **Origin not documented in that repo** — no licence file, no photographer credit, no generation note. | Confirm whether it is a photo or a generated brand mockup before this leaves the noindex preview. |
| `ihms-connect` | `IHMS-Connect-Portal/apps/landing/public/nurse.jpg` | **Not documented in the source repo.** Published on ihmsconnect.com by IHMS itself, but its own licence is unrecorded. | Owner must confirm before this leaves the noindex preview. |
| `ihms-connect-logo` | `IHMS-Connect-Portal/apps/landing/public/logo-lockup.png` | IHMS's own brand lockup, from their own site. | Trademark use — needs the same written permission as the listing itself. |
| `liwanag-events` | Unsplash CDN file `photo-1465495976277-4387d4b0b4c6`, the image the Lumière events template loads for its "Twilight Reception" scene (`components/v3/scene-viewer.tsx`); fetched clean from the CDN, not screenshotted. | **Photographer unidentified.** The file id does not resolve to an Unsplash photo page, so the contributor could not be credited and the licence TIER was not verified. The id's timestamp prefix decodes to 2016-06-09, which predates Unsplash+ (2022), so the free Unsplash License is likely — that is an inference, not a checked fact. | Resolve the contributor and licence before this leaves the noindex preview. Everything else in this table was licence-checked on its own photo page; this one was not. |

`liwanag-events` is a FICTITIOUS sample listing. Its phone is in the 555-01xx block reserved for fiction and its email uses the reserved `.example` TLD, so nothing about it can reach a real person.

**The card art no longer labels itself.** It used to be generated typography reading "SAMPLE LISTING"/"ILLUSTRATIVE EXAMPLE", which travelled with the image everywhere it appeared. A supplied photograph carries no such mark, so the only remaining signals are the directory footnote, the mosaic caption and the notice on `/directory/liwanag-events`. Set `STAMP_SAMPLE = True` in `tools/build_featured_media.py` to overlay a corner mark and restore it.

## The stock photos are illustrative, not members

**No photograph in the table at the top of this file shows a Florida Pinoy
member business.** Each is licensed stock standing in for the kind of owner
the organisation serves, and every placement is captioned as illustrative.
(The featured-listing card art above is the exception — it is sourced from
the businesses themselves.)

Replace them with real member photography before this proposal is shown to a
funder. Real owners, real storefronts and real workshop photos — with written
permission — will do more for credibility than any stock image, and the
Florida Pinoy network already has them.

Swap-in path: drop a replacement JPEG at `assets/photos/<base>.jpg` and re-run
`python3 tools/build_graphics.py`; all crops and variants regenerate.
