Why we are here

5 years ago I made my first film for submission to a local festival.

Actor’s release forms were required for entry to this particular festival (and as I have learned since, most others), and it took me a long time to research how that sort of form was to be made, and to draft my own.

Since then as I have grown as a filmmaker and as a business, I have needed to make various forms over the years, and each time I have had to find examples and write my own from scratch.

The fact no one had these forms online in an easily accessible format bothered me.

NO MORE!

Indie Legal is dedicated to giving independent filmmakers the templates to use swiftly and easily.

All forms are free, and open-source. You can download, edit and use all forms on this site.

Hope this fills a gap!
