Acting Class Student Performance Video Release Form

Getting the right permissions for student performance footage is essential for any acting school, studio, or drama program. Whether you're creating demo reels, promoting your classes on social media, or submitting work to industry showcases, you need clear, documented consent from your students.

This Acting Class Student Performance Video Release Form template is designed specifically for drama schools, acting coaches, and performing arts academies. It helps you gather all the necessary permissions while protecting both your institution and your students' rights.

The form covers consent for multiple use cases—from promotional videos on your website and social media channels to demo reels that help students land auditions, and submissions to industry festivals and showcases. It clearly outlines where and how footage will be used, giving students and their guardians (for minors) full transparency before they sign.

Built with Paperform, this template is fully customizable to match your school's branding and specific needs. You can adjust the consent language, add conditional logic to show different terms for minors versus adults, and even collect digital signatures using Papersign (papersign.com) for a completely paperless workflow.

Once a student submits the form, you can use Stepper (stepper.io) to automatically file the consent in your student management system, send a copy to the student via email, and tag their record so you always know who has granted permission for what. This keeps your compliance organized and your promotional content worry-free.

Whether you're running an intimate acting studio or a full-scale performing arts academy, this template gives you a professional, legally sound way to manage video release consent—so you can focus on helping your students shine.
