Consent Forms for Filming

We use consent forms to get the actor's permission to use the footage taken of them and to then publish it. They look like this:

As part of our Media Studies course we are required to make a number of films. This task is to create the opening of a fictional film. You have been selected to perform within our film opening. In order for us to proceed with filming work you must provide your consent to Chelmer Valley High School Media Department. This includes consent for us to use and image or recording of you, within our work. All those involved in performing in the piece will have to sign a consent form before the filming goes ahead.
No one under the age of 16 should be filmed or photographed.
In the case of a person under 18 years of age, their parent and/or legal guardian should also sign this Consent Form where indicated below.

Consent and agreement:
I.....................................[insert full name] understand and agree that the footage taken of me within performance may be used, published, reproduced, recorded, adapted, modified, complied and edited by Chelmer Valley High School Media Students for the purposes of their G321 Coursework. I understand that by giving consent, Chelmer Valley High School Media Students can use my performance in whole or part, and will place it on their blogger website that holds their coursework, along with YouTube. I understand that the film will be uploaded via a school user name that only Media Students have access to and the public comments will be disabled.

As a performer you have the choice to be credited in the piece. Please tick the appropriate box:

0 I do wish to be credited on the work that is uploaded to YouTube and the Blogger site. I understand my name will be seen on the film.

0 I do not wish to be credited on the work that is uploaded to YouTube and the Blogger site. I understand that my name will not be seen on the film.

We had to organise all of the forms and make sure that even the people that will be seen in images only will have signed a consent form, this included the actor's: Amy Wilding, Roxanne Ransom and Yasmin Young.
