| Those just starting in the modeling field can be taken advantage of by agencies and photographers, in terms of compensation, rights to photos, and keeping promises. This book gives the new or semi-professional model the information he or she needs to avoid many common legal problems that arise when considering modeling work or starting in modeling. Items and issues that the book covers include:
- agency representation and trouble with agencies after you have signed
- model releases, agency contracts, royalty agreements, commissions
- issues while on a shoot such as props, equipment, etc.
- no-shows, non-payment, and "prints for time" deals
- accounting and taxes
- the internet, email, and web sites The appendices include a sample agency contract, a model release, a list of questions to ask prospective agents, an internet resource list, and checklists for preparing to go to shoots. A glossary of terms used by models and photographers is also included. |
| Customer reviews |
| This is a very good book for aspiring models and for semi-pro photographers. As a pro, it is easy to see that Lowe is also a pro. Her tips are very valuable to those on both ends of the camera. |
| As a pro photographer, I can say with authority that any model can benefit from this book. The author does a good job in showing models what to do and more importantly, what not to do. The book is a quick read that offers concise information from an author who's been on both sides of the table. |
| As the owner of an ad agency, hiring models is a process I am very familiar with. Missy Loewe does a great job of presenting all the issues (practical, legal, and ethical) in a streamlined, easy to understand and--I might add-- fun way. I hope every model acquaints him or herself with this invaluable tool that will empower them with real-life, direct-from-the-trenches, information. This is stuff your momma never told you! And most certainly what a good agent SHOULD tell you! But, not every model HAS an agent. Even MORE reason to study this manual, which, in my humble opinion, is a life-preserver no model should be without! |
