TERMS & CONDITIONS
RATES
Emerge Models will quote model rates on a half or full day or other negotiated rate. 4 hours is the minimum rate. If job runs 20 minutes or more into the next hour, overtime will be charged at an hourly overtime rate constituting an additional full hour to be charged. Quotes are valid for 30 days.
For nude or semi-nude work, minimum of double model‘s hourly rate or by negotiation. Client must clear with agency before making any nude or semi-nude bookings. Fees will be charged should this occur onsite without agency pre-accepting and the model has the right to refuse. Full fees will be charged should this occur.
USAGE
Specific types of usage such as posters, billboards, bus shelters, display cards, dump bins, metrolites, magazine inserts, swing/hang tags, show cards, packaging and social media/internet etc require additional fees as negotiated in addition to payment for the model’s shoot time. Some products are also likely to attract payment of higher fees, e.g. underwear, alcohol, hair and beauty products. Different types of usage will be negotiated separately and images taken for one type of usage may not be used for any other type of usage without prior negotiation and payment of an additional fee. If you do not disclose the correct information when booking, and models are later found to be used on any of these external platforms, the additional fees will occur.
