TheFilm Appearance Release is used by anyone who appears on screen (or just voice) that isn’t under another type of agreement. You can use it for no-compensation cameos or other no-compensation appearances.

  • Date of Recording
  • Ownership Rights
  • Release Date
  • Name of Film Production
  • Use Rights of Recording
  • And More.
