For consideration of being permitted to attend any Substance Church activity, including but not limited to, church services, photo shoots, video shoots, audio recordings, camp, volunteer events, youth events, rehearsals, parties, picnics, baptisms, fundraisers, and missions trips (collectively “Substance Events”), all participating persons hereby irrevocably agree and consent that, Substance Church Inc., successors and assigns (collectively, “Substance”), may use, and has the exclusive worldwide right and license to use, all or any part of all videotaped or filmed interviews, videotaped or filmed segments featuring a person or their likeness, audio content, and any still images (collectively, the “Media Materials”) now or hereafter created by Substance or made available by me to Substance, including but not limited to picture, silhouette and other reproductions of likeness or voice, any still photographs from the Media Materials, and any written transcript of the Media Materials, in connection with any article, motion picture, radio or television program, audio or video recording, live or slide presentation, computer software product, CD-ROM, or streaming audio/video segment, whether on the Internet, or in any other medium, and in any advertising or promotional material.
Substance may sell, lease, license, make available, dispose of or otherwise transfer all or any part of the Media Materials to its sponsors, clients, customers, affiliates and to others having a contractual relationship with Substance.
Substance may edit any Media Material as it sees fit, and may translate the Media Materials into languages other than English.
Substance shall have all right, title and interest in the Media Materials, including but not limited to copyright throughout the world, and by participating in service at Substance Church participants agree that they shall have no right to compensation or royalty for the Videos.
By participating in Substance Events all participants hereby irrevocably waive any “moral” or other rights of authorship in the Media Materials which may accrue under the laws of any jurisdiction, and agree that each Media Material is and shall be a “work made for hire” as that term is understood and interpreted under U.S. and international copyright laws. To the extent that any Media Material is not a “work made for hire,” all participants in a Substance service hereby irrevocably and unconditionally assigns to Substance all right, title, and interest in and to such Media Material.
The rights granted Substance are perpetual, worldwide, irrevocable, unconditional, transferable, and include the use of the Media Materials in any medium (all or part of the Media material may be shown), whether now in existence or later discovered, including but not limited to print, radio, broadcast and cable television, the Internet, broadband, CD-ROM, live presentation, audiocassettes, and videocassettes.
This consent and license is given as an inducement for Substance to publish, broadcast and/or disseminate the Videos and I understand Substance will incur substantial expense in reliance on this consent and license.
Substance is not obliged to make use of the Media Materials or exercise any of the rights granted Substance herein.
By participating in Substance Events, all persons agree that they will not bring suit in law or equity against Substance, any of its officers, directors, stockholders, employees, agents, affiliates, or any other person or entity on the grounds of libel, slander, or invasion of privacy with regard to the Media Materials or their use by Substance or such other person or entity.
