Model Release Question

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello all,

I have a question regarding Model Releases. I understand the "basic" norms for what does and what does not require a release.

My specific question relates to my travels in Iraq.

If I were to take a photograph of a local Iraqi (child, lady, boy, man, etc...) with their permission, what are the legalities of getting a release?

1. What if they cannot read the release (in thier native language of course)?
2. What if they cannot write?

What if I am in a remote village type area and the subject agrees to be photographed and does not understand the concept of a relase?

Of course I have my standard release in English, however does anyone have any suggestions for a more "simplified" version of a relase?

None of the crazy $50 words, just the basics to cover me legally...maybe just a few lines vice my current 1 page release!

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
