Sounds as though you understand all this junk too. It's sooooo much fun isn't it?
Yes, unfortunately anyone doing work for an ad firm or an employer gives up those rights.
My husband did several lighting design rig changes (actually creating the blueprints for changing a part on a light rig so it would fit something else as a custom fit.) He did this for a major hotel as the lighting director. This wasn't part of his job. He wasn't hired to do the actual engineering, only the lighting, programming of lights and designing. So basically when he left that company, they owned all his custom engineered blueprints. Pretty sad.
