Common use of Documentary Clause in Contracts

Documentary. (1) The producer shall have the right to make a television documentary, including unlimited exhibition throughout the world on all television and for the period defined in the SAG-AFTRA Agreement. This permission is conditioned on payment of not less than the applicable SAG-AFTRA rates and provided no more than 21 minutes of combined rehearsal/performance footage is used. “Performance footage” and/or rehearsal shall mean footage acquired from Advance News footage, documentaries (produced after November 3, 1997, provided Actor has given consent to such use) or news footage with no individual clip exceeding three minutes in duration. For the purposes of clarity, “non-performance footage” involving Actors in non-performance activities (such as interviews, costume fittings and other elements where the performer is not performing whether in rehearsal or on stage) shall not be included in the calculation of running time. Furthermore, this provision is conditioned on the proviso that if work additional to Actor’s normal duties in rehearsing or performing for the stage production is required of the Actor to accommodate the recording, the Actor will be paid the appropriate Equity hourly rehearsal overtime rates for such additional work plus any fees which may be required by SAG-AFTRA. It is agreed that Producer must obtain Equity’s consent to Record more than a total of three days of rehearsal and/or performance. Equity agrees that it shall not unreasonably withhold its consent to such additional Recording.
