What you should know

A Smart Contract is an agreement between the professional that is booking the model and the model. This part of the process will happen once a professional confirms a model for a project.

What types of Smart Contracts can I find on ModelManagement.com?

There are two types of Smart Contracts.

1. unpaid or collaboration => used for projects without direct economic purpose, meaning that the model doesn´t get paid, but in exchange he or she gets the images/videos or a product from the brand. Most of these are for self promotion and have a non-commercial purpose.
2. Paid jobs used for projects that have a fee, meaning that the job is paid. These kinds of Smart Contracts include information such as image rights and the project fee.

What is the benefit?

A Smart Contract is the best way to secure your conditions and image rights and keep everything transparent. This saves time and doubts between the professional and the model and increases the safety of the process.

1. Benefit for Models or Talent
   As a model you'll know exactly what the images/videos are going to be used for and how much you will be paid. In the case of a TFP or collaboration it is also important for you to sign a contract, as there are also rights for these images/videos. Additionally, this can be considered as a way to see that the professional you are going to work with is serious.
2. Benefit for Professionals => Photographers, Producers, Brands etc.
   As a Professional, you want to make sure that the model is serious; by signing this contract he or she will commit to the shoot you are arranging. This also saves time and doubts between the model and yourself, so it's one less thing for you to worry about while preparing your project.

How does it work?

Smart Contracts are fast and easy to use =>

The professional completes the details required and signs the Smart Contract.
*It can vary depending if the contract is for TFP or Paid job => description, shoot date, location, payment fee, image rights, territory and media where the images/videos will be used and client information.

After that, he or she submits it to the model to sign

ModelManagement.com official messaging tool is monitored by our team. This is the main reason why we strongly recommend not to continue the conversation away from the ModelManagement.com messaging tool, when making agreements with casting providers. There are mainly 2 reasons why switching you conversations to other messaging platforms such could be dangerous =>

• We cannot confirm the user's identity and make sure that the person is legitimate
• Within our messaging tool we have our own methods to detect spam messages and protect you from possible dangers

So, once you are offered to continue a conversation on other messaging platforms, please have in mind that you will not have our team as an added level of security for your agreement.

Don't worry, it is visible only to us and the user will not know what you think of him or her. We review these comments every day and if the user is flagged, they can be rejected by our moderation team, if we find it necessary. We assure you that Professionals who may put members of our community at risk, will be rejected immediately.
