Model Release Forms

When taking photos or shooting video at public College events, there are times you DO need to have people sign a model release form and there are times when you DO NOT need to have people sign a model release form. The following are general guidelines:

YES, you need a model release:

  • If you interview someone for a video shoot
  • If you plan on using photos/videos for advertising purposes

[Have a few people sign releases and concentrate on them. The College will then be protected if their images are selected for advertising purposes.]

 

NO, you do not need a model release:

  • If you will not be using the photos/videos for advertising

Be sure you are using the most recent and official College Model Release forms:

Model Release Form for Adults [electronic]

Model Release Form for Adults [PDF]

Model Release Form for Minors [PDF]
