Common use of Nudity Clause in Contracts

The following guidelines will apply with regard to nudity: a) The production company will notify the cast member of any nudity that is required as part of their performance as soon as the production company knows of the requirement, whether that is before or after the signing of the contract. Unless the cast member has specifically consented, he/she may refuse to carry out any part of the performance involving their nudity. b) Where a cast member does not consent to appear nude and the production company proposes to substitute a double, the production company will obtain the consent of the cast member, acceptance of which will not be unreasonably denied. c) With the exception of the final rehearsal for camera and lighting, there will be no rehearsals in the nude or semi-nude. d) During the rehearsal or shooting of nude or semi-nude scenes, the set will be closed to all persons, except those having a legitimate reason for being present. Observation by monitor or any other means will be prohibited, except where that is necessary as part of the production process.
