i mean to start to design the xmas card

need photo
need copy
need layout
need approval
need colourSep or CTP
need printing
need drying
need folding
need trimming
need packing
need delivery

hopefully they are smart enough to design it using standard envelope sizes,
so don't need to custom make envelopes

Those you got from the respective parties, but even if you shoot private buildings like center-point, taka..etc for commercial purposes you still need to get release from the management, else they might sue.

Actually you don't need any "releases" for building shots. Copyright in a building is not infringed by taking of a photo of that building.

On what grounds or cause of action would these "management" sue for?

No idea, juz some experience with esplanade. So far I dunnoe any case in Sg or not.

Well, as with security guards, a lot of these "management" just try their bully tactics on unsuspecting photographers when they may not even know the legal basis behind it, or if it even exists.

Hence, I won't be that quick to say that releases MUST be obtained.

Agreed. The best I've heard is this guard at Wheelock coming out and scolding a photographer who was shooting outside the building. Knowing his rights quite well, the photographer stood his ground and there was nothing the security guard could do about it.
