Hi all
Im currently with 3 agencies and am wondering if anyone out there has a generic model release accepted by all agencies , or do you have to use their own?.
Its a real pain having to get 3 different releases signed.

Here is one that I garnished from this site a while ago:

It seems to work, but I am not sure its perfect. I have never used it for anyone who should really care (family and friends only so far).

I would be interested in other ideas, or changes that people suggest.
