Four public forms show the core fields. Location releases (K-State, Cleveland State): grantor identity and signature/date, grantee, property and address, dates, permission to record the property, and grant of rights in the resulting recordings (CSU: in perpetuity, all media, including copyrights, plus a certification of authority). An appearance release (Wright State): grant of name/portrait/audio/video, event and dates, no compensation, non-exclusive royalty-free worldwide perpetual, minor guardian block. A state film permit addendum (Hawaii) is a permit with an insurance field, not an owner release. Insurer and broker texts require releases to give authority to edit and change the production.
