I'm just wondering, for those of you who are using, or have used, photography for creating a Tarot deck. Have you had your models sign model releases? If so, what is the basic wording of the model relase you use?

Good question Trogon. I have loads of pics of friends who have posed especially for the new photo-manipulation deck I am working on and I told them all they can have a copy of the deck when it is published... I guess the publisher might make me go back and get everyone to sign a form like that before it is published... Had not really thought of it before... thanks for bringing it up. ![]()

You might think I'd have a consent form, but I don't. I did look into the requirements but decided not to proceed with it because I have no plans to mass market my deck.A standard photographer's consent form would do the trick. Basically all it needs to say is the photo(s) taken of the undersigned on such and such a date are the photographer's property.

Hi again! I did a search on "model release" and came up with some good links; Apogee magazine has a page with a discussion of when and why you may need model releases, with a sample form; http://www.apogeephoto.com/mag4-6/m..._releases.shtml Here's another link with just some sample forms - they're not really in a printable format on this page, but you can highlight the text and copy it, then paste it into your word processor; http://www.dpcorner.com/all_about/releases.shtml The New York Institute of Photography has a very short and basic model release; http://www.nyip.com/sub_idx_pgs/ref...el_release.html And yet another page with sample release forms; http://randomcentral.com/photo/phrel.shtml This page has 4 sample forms which are somewhat in-between the longest and the shortest ones; http://www.robinprior.net/info7.html There are, of course, many, many more examples scattered around on the 'net. But these appeared to me to be some of the better ones.

Model Release
I am a part time professional photographer, my model release is the same I use for all my projects with models. It basicly says For the following considerations the model agrees to pose for a photo session. The copyright for any photos belongs to the photographer. For considerations I offer to assist with listing on some of the model agency sites in my area, and/or 8x10 glossy photos for her portfolio, and/or some cash amount negotiated before hand. The release must be signed and witnessed, and constitutes a contract in law. Hope this is helpful to you. Enjoy your art. I have some of my deck on skipsphotosgroup@Yahoo Groups. Skip |
