Is This Form Right For You?

- Producers seeking to include artwork in their motion pictures need this release to secure permission from the legal owner. This document clarifies the terms of use and protects the producer from future claims related to the artwork's depiction.
- In situations where an artist wants to ensure their artwork is not altered without consent, this release serves as a safeguard. It outlines the waiver of rights, ensuring the artist understands they will not have a say in how their work is portrayed.

Do Not Use If:
