Location Release Formwith expert lawyers

A Location Release Form should include key details such as:

• The names of the parties involved, such as the filmmaker or production company and the property owner
• A description of the location being used
• The filming terms, such as dates, times, and any special instructions, for example access restrictions or areas that are off-limits
• Consent for filming, including the use of any images or footage captured
• Payment terms, if applicable
• Any legal disclaimers or indemnities to help protect both parties

Yes, ideally you should have a Location Release Form for every filming location, whether it’s private or public. Each location can come with different conditions, and a separate release helps make sure you have the right permissions and protections in place for each one. Even if you plan to film in multiple locations on the same property, it’s sensible to have a separate release for each area to cover any specific terms.

If you don’t have a signed Location Release Form, you may face legal issues such as disputes over the use of the location or claims of unauthorised filming. Without formal consent, property owners could ask for footage to be removed or prevent its use altogether. In some cases, you could also face potential claims for trespass or breach of contract, particularly if filming interferes with other agreements or legal requirements. Having a signed release helps protect both the producer and the property owner.
