The first contract template of its kind & quality to be created by a team of industry professionals, with tons of real life experience.
We created this contract for the community of creatives who are...
> sick of letting brands screw them over
> stressed about the "business side" of things & want to stay in their zone of genius
> seeking to scale, so they can stop trading their time for money & make the most of each shoot
> sophisticated & experienced enough to know that they don't know what they don't know (& ChatGPT can only get you so far)
Why choose our contract template?
We spent over 100 hours creating this template alone, & 10 years+ each with individual experience (30 years combined) to craft this piece of art (bc yes, being a wordsmith & writing is an art, too).
1) Exclusive collaboration >> Legal meets creative. Jackie & Chey have been in the industry on-set for years, and Nina has been a lawyer for content creators since Instagram's inception in 2013. Plus, working on-set as a creative herself, Nina learned a ton of info hands-on... so together, we bring custom verbiage & unique terms that we've never seen in any contract before (but are desperately needed).
2) Accessibility >> Anti-Gatekeepers. These kinds of negotiation tips often gate-kept, & reliable contracts (drafted by a lawyer with actual experience on-set is hard to find: but now, it is readily available. Let us take some of the stress off your shoulders & provide you with the convenience of easy-to-use & easy-to-understand contracts that will help you get paid (& not get ghosted).
3) Customization >> Being detail-oriented is our thing. Every line in this contract was drafted from scratch & crafted for this industry to address nuances that we have lived out on-set (from life experiences)... yet they are designed to be adaptable for every type of boundary you want to include (our supplemental resources like the Workbook with sample language & Walk-Thru video will explain everything you need to know, so you don't need a lawyer).
Includes...
> Contract template for commercial client shoots (created by 3 industry professionals)
