I understand that Music Will (“MW”), a national nonprofit music education organization, promotes its programs through its websites (including, but not limited to, littlekidsrock.org), social media channels, brochures, newsletters, annual reports, press releases, and other media and communication channels and formats (collectively, “MW Media”). For good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which I hereby acknowledge, I agree as follows:
- Whether I am a presenter, student, registrant, attendee, panelist, or any other participant of any kind, or parent or legal guardian of such participant (“Participant”), in an MW conference, class, or any other event or gathering, or in a promotional or other program sponsored or conducted by MW (“MW Event”), whether such MW Event is in person or so-called “virtual” (by way of example only, Zoom conferences, Facebook or Google digital meetings, WebEx, Instagram, etc.), I hereby grant permission for me (and, if applicable, my minor child) to be interviewed, photographed, filmed or otherwise have my (our) name(s), image(s) and/or voice(s) recorded by all audiovisual or audio-only means, now known or hereafter devised (collectively, “MW Event Recordings”), at or in connection with the MW Event, by MW, its affiliates, assigns, licensees or designees, for use by any news or media organization or entity, or for any promotional purpose that the directors of MW deem appropriate in connection with MW and its programs.
- I hereby grant to MW and its licensees, assignees, designees, affiliates, and partners the perpetual and irrevocable right to use my (or my minor child’s) name(s), image(s), likeness(es), voice(s), musical performances, musical compositions, recordings, presentations, and/or words, as embodied in MW Event Recordings or any material submitted by me or my designee to MW in connection with an MW Event (collectively, the “Materials”) in any and all MW Media, now known or hereafter devised, without notice or payment or any other compensation of any kind.
- I understand and agree that the Materials will be deemed irrevocably and perpetually licensed to MW by this Media Release Waiver. In addition, I waive (to the fullest extent possible) the right to inspect or approve the use of any finished product that includes the Materials, including, but not limited to, written or electronic copy.
- I hereby irrevocably authorize MW to edit, alter, adapt, copy, exhibit, publish or distribute any Materials for purposes of providing educational resources to teachers, students and families, furthering MW's mission, publicizing MW's programs or MW itself, for any other lawful purpose. Consequently, I (and minor child, if applicable) forever waive (to the fullest extent possible) so-called “droit morale” or “moral rights” of authors.
- I hereby indemnify, hold harmless, release, and forever discharge MW and its officers, directors, employees, agents, affiliates, licensees, and partners, and their respective officers, directors, and employees, from all claims, demands, and causes of action which I (and my minor child), my/our heirs, representatives, executors, administrators, or any other persons acting on my/our behalf or on behalf of my/our estate have or may have by reason of this authorization or MW's use of the Materials.
