Booking conditions:
AI CLAUSE
Please note that the use of artificial intelligence or digital tools to generate additional images or likenesses of the model beyond the original images captured on set is not permitted without prior written authorization from Forward Management. Additional fees will apply in the event of unauthorized use.
BOOKING RATES / TIME
The minimum booking duration is 4 hours.
The hourly rate is calculated based on the total fee divided by the originally booked hours.
Following each booking, the model will notify the agency of the wrap time, and any additional time worked will be billed in 30-minute increments.
The rate covers the full period the model is engaged (from call time through wrap time), irrespective of preparation time, breaks, production issues, or delays.

Time-and-a-half applies to bookings scheduled before 9AM, after 5PM, on Saturdays, Sundays, statutory holidays, and/or after 8 consecutive working hours. All overtime must be reported to the agency.
HOLDS
Holds must be confirmed or released by 5PM on the day prior to the hold date, otherwise they will be automatically released. Cancelled holds will not incur a charge.
When a second option is ready to confirm, the first option must either book or release.
CANCELLATION POLICY
Confirmed bookings cancelled within 2 business days are subject to the full rate.
WEATHER PERMITS
Same-day cancellations are billed at half the rate if the services are rescheduled immediately.
