The Legal Risk Score of a Audio Release for Media (Podcast, Radio Program or other) Template
Our legal team have marked this document as low risk considering:
- The document grants extensive control to the Producer over the use and modification of the recorded content, including the right to edit, delete, and rearrange any part of the Recording, which might limit the individual’s control over how their performance is ultimately used or portrayed.
- There is no obligation on the Producer’s part to actually use the Recording in the Program, which means the individual may participate in the production without any guarantee of inclusion or exposure.
- The individual waives any claims against the Producer related to the use of the Recording, potentially leaving the individual without recourse if they disagree with the outcome or use of their performance.
