p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · Model Release app for Canada or multi-country


Hi all, I'm looking for some help on model releases. I'm ideally looking for a release app i can carry on my smartphone that is legal to use in Canada and the USA if possible (something as good as a paper release or better) does such a thing exist?

I also know different provinces/states have different laws, would be great to find one that had appropriate jurisdiction settings you select before the model signs to be accurate... Maybe wishfull thinking but this is what i would like to find...

Any help or advice would be great..

Thanks,

Paul..

shshshshs --- the wind blows and the tumble weeds go by - - anyone??

OK I'll help myself, Easy Release was one suggested by a friend, anyone with any experience using this?

Also has anyone been challenged in court or by a photo site refusing work without a paper hard copy?

I downloaded Easy Release at the advice of a photographer friend who shoots many models each month. I downloaded it right then during a shoot, and it was easy .. you fill out the model's name, date of birth, address, phone number, email. Then you take a photo of the model with your cell phone itself and then make the model sign on the cell phone. Then you save it and you can email it to the model and you and it comes in as PDF. You cannot later go and change the release on the app - and that's good. I would recommend Easy Release.

I've been using Easy Release for probably 3-4 years. I really like it, and both you and the model (or property owner, as there's also a property release included) can be emailed a PDF copy of the release right there on the spot - immediately upon signature.

No idea if it's considered legally valid in Canada, though. Maybe the developer's website has info on that point?

And if you are so inclined you can customize the language in the legal release to best suit your jurisdiction. You can also brand the releases with your logo to make it your own.
