Title: Do I need MR for myself?
Post by: melastmohican on June 26, 2008, 13:38
If yes, is there any universal MR form so I do not have to keep MR for each agency?

Yes and yes.

Do a search for a generic model release.

Email me with your email address and I will send you a word doc of a generic ML that has been accepted by all of the big 6 and a few others.  No site has rejected it for me.

This is the one I'm about to use for some self portraits, which is based on the IS one.

Edit to your hearts content...   ;D

"Do I need MR for myself?"

You are so ugly a normal model release in your case will not work.
You need a certificate signed and notarized by a certified board member medical examiner.
And then another one from a coroner stating that the person depicted in this image was alive when the image was taken.

For crying out loud Miz, you've fallen off that thin line you like to dance on again.  Your attempt at humour is embarrassing to all of us.

It's a conspiracy of the ugly people....  You may have heard that thing about the meek inheriting the earth?  It was a mis-quote...  What was actually said was 'The butt-ugly will inherit the stock revenue'.

I've just uploaded the first of my self portraits last night...  Maybe we should have a self-portrait MSG challenge, see who can get the first sale?  of  particular type of image on a given site?

We could all take a self portrait, with the paper bag on our heads, doing something silly, bonus points for first uploaded and approved, and a chocolate fish for the first sale?  ;D

If he sells, I am uploading pics of me as well. But I want proof that an ugly photographer can sell pics of himself before they laugh at me!

That one just got approved on SS last night, and sold once already...  So the self portrait experiment is a success based on that, given that it's Sunday afternoon in the US.  (Monday here)

Will be interesting to see if it sells on IS or DT (Still in the queue).

Cheers, Me.
