Talent release forms

Focus group release forms...

As we decided to film our focus group to use, instead of just using lost of questionnaires, we thought it would be a good idea to get all the people we included to sign a "personal release form", this is because it shows that we got consent from everyone in the process of our media product. This is also very important because them signing this gave us consent to use them in our work of "Dolls Domain the focus group". If we didn't end up getting these forms, the people we used wouldn't have given full consent and therefore wouldn't be able to withdraw their information. Even though this was only a small part of our work, the focus group did massively help us with forming our work because it showed us what people look for in horror movies. 

Our cast release form...

As we only had one person for our cast, it meant we only needed one personal release form for our primary task media product. However, the personal release forms are just as important to the ones shown above for the focus group. This is because it gave us permission to feature this person with in our film opening. Additionally, unlike the people above, this person was under the age of 18, so we had to get parental consent for her to be in our opening. This is another important factor because it by law, children under the age of 18 are in much more need of protection and sometimes their own consent, isn't always able to stand alone- we had to get a parent to sign us permission.
