The web is exactly like print and should be treated as such. As long as Forbes is willing to pay substantially higher creative fees for these uses, we do not have a problem. We know of photographers who have been compensated 3 to 4 times the day rate for such use. You warrant the originality, authorship, authenticity and sole ownership of all rights in each Artwork and that the Artwork has not been previously published, that any necessary model releases shall have been obtained in writing, and that publication of the Artwork will not infringe upon any copyright, right of privacy, proprietary or any other right. Artist agrees to cooperate in the defense of any legal action which may be brought against Publisher arising from the publication of the Artwork.
Photographers can only obtain model releases from cooperative photo subjects.
Many CEOs or others may be unwilling to sign a release. The photographer simply can't be placed in a position of liability with regard to releases on behalf of the magazine. For supplements, simultaneous publication shall mean within the time period from one issue to the next. This contains our entire and complete understanding and shall be construed under the laws of New York.
