Employ a lawyer. 2257 is your protection not annoying paperwork.
You clearly do not have the level of knowledge you think you do and are not informed of this LEGAL Exemption on certain types of content I'm referring to that is made before March 18, 2009.

What I stated is correct. If not then tell specifically what is not correct and how you are not understanding the legal code.

I have spent 2 months studying 2257 for my own shooting. I have everything in compliance for my own shoots. And I know 2257 paper work is for my protection.

This is question is related to buying work from other producers and the code states that if it was shot before March 18, 2009 and is only lascivious display and/or simulated then it is exempt from 2257. The reason for this is you can not go back in time and create paper work that was not required back then.

§ 75.7 Exemption statement.

(a) Any producer of any book, magazine, periodical, film, videotape, digitally- or computer-manipulated image, digital image, picture, or other matter may cause to be affixed to every copy of the matter a statement attesting that the matter is not covered by the record-keeping requirements of 18 U.S.C. 2257(a)–(c) or 18 U.S.C. 2257A(a)–(c), as applicable, and of this part if:

(1) The matter contains visual depictions of actual sexually explicit conduct made only before July 3, 1995, or was last produced, manufactured, published, duplicated, reproduced, or reissued before July 3, 1995. Where the matter consists of a compilation of separate primarily produced depictions, the entirety of the conduct depicted was produced prior to July 3, 1995, regardless of the date of secondary production;

(2) The matter contains only visual depictions of simulated sexually explicit conduct or of actual sexually explicit conduct limited to lascivious exhibition of the genitals or pubic area of any person, made before March 18, 2009;

(3) The matter contains only some combination of the visual depictions described in paragraphs (a)(1) and (a)(2) of this section.

(b) If the primary producer and the secondary producer are different entities, the primary producer may certify to the secondary producer that the visual depictions in the matter satisfy the standards under paragraphs (a)(1) through (a)(3) of this section. The secondary producer may then cause to be affixed to every copy of the matter a statement attesting that the matter is not covered by the record-keeping requirements of 18 U.S.C. 2257(a)–(c) or 18 U.S.C. 2257A(a)–(c), as applicable, and of this part.

Once aging if someone has some actual info regarding this from experience with this exemption I'd like to hear from them.
