General booking conditions for booking a performer, artist or location

​

A. PERFORMERS and ARTISTS

1. Status of the parties to this agreement 
The general booking conditions shall govern the booking contract between the performer/artist and the respective client for the execution of an engagement. The booking conditions shall apply in all cases, unless alternative agreements are explicitly concluded in a specific case. 

The Brüderchen & Schwesterchen GmbH agency (hereafter referred to as "B&S") procures performers/artists on the basis of contracts concluded with clients for the purposes of producing photographic and video material for film and advertising productions, as well as the implementation of catwalk presentations, showroom exhibitions and advertising and fashion shows ot other presentations. 

The performer/artist does not draw up the booking contract independently, but leaves this exclusively to B&S as the agency. B&S is commissioned by the performer/artist to conduct legal transactions on his or her behalf in his or her name with the client concerned. At the booking location, no contracts or declarations (for example additional contracts of employment, declarations of renunciation or exclusive agreements) whatsoever are signed which have not been previously presented to B&S and agreed with B&S.

2. Definitions
The following meaning is assigned to the following terms:

2.1. Client
As a matter of principle, anyone who books an engagement for a performer/artist with B&S is deemed to be a client. Notwithstanding the above, it may be individually agreed who should be deemed to be a client. As a rule, the client of B&S is also the client of the performer/artist booked for an engagement.

2.2. Acquirer of the rights
The acquirer of the rights is the person who would like to use the material that has been created for his or her business operations, in particular for his or her advertising. As a rule, the acquirer of the rights commissions advertising agencies or photographers with the creation of an advertising campaign. In turn, these advertising agencies or photographers book performers or Artists from B&S as clients within the meaning of Article 2.1.

2.3. Material
Material is the result of a film and photographic production by B&S or its clients. It comprises not only the raw product that has been created, but also the product of further physical or digital processing, without there being any change to the essential contents. In particular, this includes advertising and marketing material, photographs, video recordings, interviews, "making of" scenes, as well as all compilations, editing, translations or other alternative forms of the production material.  

2.4. Performers
Performers are the main characters of a photographic or video shoot or any other form of production.

2.5. Artist
Artists are make-up artists, hair stylists or stylists in general for performers in a photographic or video production or any other form of presentation. 

3. Forms of booking

3.1. Option
Options are reservations bound to a specific time and date. An option shall lapse if no confirmed booking is made within one working day (Monday to Friday) after a request to do so is issued by B&S or when no acknowledgement is provided by 14:00 on a working day (Monday - Friday) prior to the first opted-for day. Options are listed according to the time of receipt of the booking. If this is not a first option, the client is informed of the rank of the option. If an option lapses, the following options move up in the subsequent order. Options must be cancelled by the client if he or she becomes aware that no firm booking will be made. 

3.2. Firm booking
A firm booking means the binding conclusion of an agreement for all parties. Thereafter, the performer/artist is obliged to take part in the agreed engagement, while the client is obliged to pay the agreed fee. The booking contract can only be terminated for good cause (see 7 "Termination of the booking"). In the case of the cancellation of a booked engagement without good cause, the agreed performer's/artist's total fee shall be paid in full. Only as a gesture of goodwill does B&S reserve the right to accommodate the client by taking into consideration the circumstances of the individual case. The booking contract shall be mutually agreed in writing immediately at the request of one of the parties, stating the essential details. 

3.3. Free production

Free productions are firm bookings in which performer/artists take part free of charge. The resulting material is made available to B&S free of charge and regularly without any restriction on use in a printable resolution on a data carrier or as a download.

In addition to the concept of free work, portraits of the performer in a natural pose are created. The material used shall be furnished with the copyright of "model's name or artist's name (according to the order confirmation) // brüderchen & schwesterchen". If the material is used on social networks, a link to B&S must also be created. Links to the performer/artist are not allowed. Insofar as the material is to be used for purposes other than that of self-promotion, the acquisition of rights must be agreed beforehand with B&S and remunerated accordingly (reference is made to Article 4.3.).

In the case of non-receipt of the materials – including the portraits – within 4 weeks of the execution of the engagement, an all-inclusive amount of 400,00 EUR plus agency commission (reference is made to section 4.3.) is charged. 

3.4. Exclusive booking

Irrespective of the type of booking, the performer/artist does not work on an exclusive basis as a rule. He or she may have already worked for competitors of the client in the past. An exclusive booking for the future must be negotiated explicitly and separately.

4. Remuneration by the client

4.1. Remuneration of the performer/artist

4.1.1. The performer's/artist's total fee is broken down into a fee for the work performed and the remuneration for rights of use (only in the case of performers) plus the associated VAT if the performer/artist is liable for the payment of VAT, or without VAT in the case of small businesses according to §19 German Value Added Tax Act (UStG). 

4.1.2. The level of the performer's/artist's total fee depends in all cases on the performer's/artist's degree of professionalism and the extent of the purchased rights of use. Furthermore, the fee is agreed individually with the respective client. 

4.1.3. The working fee in the case of half-day bookings is 60 % of the daily fee. Hourly bookings always require a separate agreement.

4.1.6. Addressing an invoice to another recipient does not release the client from his payment obligation arising out of the booking agreement.

4.2. Travel costs and expenses
All travel costs are assumed by the client. If travel costs and expenses are not assumed on the basis of an individual agreement, an amount of 0,30 EUR per kilometre shall be charged for travel to the location by the performer's/artist's own car. Travel to the location by public transport, such as rail, taxi or aeroplane, shall be brought to account in the amount of the receipts presented. 

4.3. Remuneration of the agency

4.3.1. The customer shall pay a commission to B&S for mediation of the engagement, as well as for each purchase of rights of use. Unless otherwise agreed, this amounts to 20 % (plus the associated VAT), but at least 100,00 EUR (plus the applicable VAT) for each day of the booking or purchase of rights. 

4.3.2. The client shall also be liable for the payment of the agency commission for follow-up bookings, for as long as the performer/artist is contractually bound to B&S.

4.3.3. No cash discount shall be granted.

4.3.4. In the relationship with merchants under the German Commercial Code, there exists a contractual exclusion of set-off with the commission claim of B&S for receivables which are not undisputed or legally established.

5. Working hours

5.1. For a whole-day booking, the working time is 8 hours, plus a 30-minute lunch break, and for a half-day booking 4 hours without a break.

5.2. In the case of a shoot, the working time for a whole-day booking is 10 hours, plus a 45-minute lunch break, and for a half-day booking 5 hours without a break.

5.3. The working time begins upon the arrival of the performer/artist at the agreed place of work at the agreed time. Preparation times, such as time required for the application of make-up and for hairstyles, are considered to be working time.

5.4. Overtime is charged at 15 % of the fee for the work performed for full-day bookings, and 25 % for half-day bookings. 

6. Rights of use for performer bookings

6.1. The rights of use are agreed separately for each engagement and documented on the order confirmation and invoice. Any further use beyond the extent agreed upon the first performance of the engagement must be requested and negotiated separately.

6.2. Rights of use are transferred exclusively to the party acquiring the rights. Furthermore, the client or the party acquiring the rights is explicitly prohibited from transferring these to a third party. 

6.3. If the time of the commencement of the use of the produced material cannot be determined, it is scheduled for the end of three months after the execution of the engagement. 

6.4. Rights of use are only granted after the receipt of payment of the agreed remuneration. Any use before full payment of the agreed remuneration is not permitted.

6.5. For the use of material which goes beyond the agreed use in terms of time or the intended use, the agreed remuneration shall become due for payment, plus a contractual penalty in the amount of 50 % of the agreed remuneration. Insofar as no remuneration has been agreed, the standard remuneration shall apply.

6.6. B&S is permitted to use the material produced for the purpose of self-promotion. The material used by B&S is placed on their websites or on social networks with the copyright notice.

6.7. Use of the Material for the Purpose of Rights Monitoring and Enforcement
B&S shall be granted a simple, non-exclusive right to use the material created in the course of an engagement, limited to the purpose of identifying, documenting, pursuing, and legally enforcing:

• violations of the performer’s/artist’s personality rights,

• unauthorized uses, reproductions, or publications of the material, and

• other forms of misuse by third parties.

This right of use shall in particular include the provision of the material to service providers engaged by B&S who, on behalf of B&S, provide monitoring, tracking, analysis, or legal enforcement services. Any further transfer or sublicensing of the right of use is excluded.

6.8. Use of Name and Logo as a Reference
The client grants B&S the right to use the client’s name and logo as a reference on B&S’s websites. Such use shall be solely for the purpose of presenting the collaboration and without any distortion of content. The client may object to the reference at any time with effect for the future by giving notice in text form.

6.9. Self-promotion and social networks
If clients use material for self-promotion and/or on social networks, the material is to be furnished with the copyright notice "model's name or artist's name (according to the order confirmation) // brüderchen & schwesterchen". If the material is used on social networks, a link to Brüderchen & Schwesterchen GmbH must also be created. Links to the performer/artist are not allowed.

6.10. Transfer of obligations
The client undertakes to inform their client (the acquirer of the rights) about these provisions under Article 6 of these General Booking Conditions and to impose all of the obligations applicable to the client from Article 6 on their own client (the acquirer of the rights). The client is obliged to inform their own client about the scope of the rights of use that have been granted, as stated in the confirmation of order and invoice. The obligation to provide such information may be fulfilled by forwarding the “Certificate of Rights of Use” made available by B&S. Insofar as the client infringes the above obligations, a contractual penalty of 3.000,00 EUR shall become due for payment. This provision serves the purpose of protecting the rights of the performer/artist, particularly if the acquirer of the rights is not the client.

6.11. Directory Definitionen von Nutzungsrechten, Werbemitteln und Begriffen regulates the definitions of the transferred rights of use in a binding manner.

7. Termination of the booking

7.1. Each party is entitled to terminate the agreement for an important reason. A substantiated reason for immediate termination applies in particular if the engagement proves to be impracticable due to unforeseeable and/or unavoidable events, especially force majeure, orders imposed by the authorities or statutory prohibitions or the performer/artist is prevented from fulfilling his or her contractual obligations on the agreed dates due to injury, prolonged illness or an accident. 

7.2. The notice of termination must be submitted in writing or electronically by e-mail.

7.3. In all cases the important reason is to be made credible in an appropriate form. 

7.4. Insofar as the agreement is terminated due to the performer/artist being unable to attend, B&S shall make every effort to find an appropriate replacement for the client.

8. Performer's/artist's social security
The client is obliged to comply with the social security regulations. This includes a check with respect to every engagement of the liability to pay contributions to the artists' social insurance, as well as the competent German pension insurance. B&S acts as an agency, representing and procuring work for its performers/artists. Its position as such means that B&S does not incur any non-wage labour costs.  

9. Complaints
In the case of complaints relating to the performer's/artist's services, the client must inform the performer/artist as well as the agency immediately during the ongoing production and explain the reasons for the complaint in detail (by telephone if necessary). Appropriate evidence to substantiate the complaint is to be provided. Thereafter, the performer/artist is to be specifically released from his or her obligation to work. In the case of justified complaints, there shall be no payment obligation for this performer/artist whatsoever, including the travel costs. However, if the services of the performer/artist are accepted by continuing production, this shall be deemed to be a waiver on the part of the client of any complaint.

10. Liability

10.1. The parties shall be liable in accordance with the statutory provisions, whereby the liability of the performer/artist and that of B&S and their legal representatives and vicarious agents is limited to intent and gross negligence. Damage is excluded from this limitation.

10.2. Each party shall check and be responsible for the tax implications of the booking contract itself as it affects them and shall exempt the other party from claims resulting from non-compliance with this regulation. 

10.3. If the parties are prevented from fulfilling their obligations associated with this agreement as a consequence of natural disasters, war, terrorist attacks, unrest, diseases for which they are not responsible and other cases of force majeure and these hindrances cannot be avoided or circumvented with reasonable financial expenditure, the parties shall be released from their obligation to fulfil their duties under the agreement.

10.4. The party that is prevented from fulfilling their obligations shall be required to notify the other party immediately thereof, explaining the circumstances which is preventing them from fulfilling the obligations. Furthermore, the party will do everything in their power to overcome or circumvent the situation preventingfulfilment of the obligations. 

10.5. If the performer/artist is late for reasons for which he or she is responsible, he or she shall be obliged to work for a correspondingly longer time. If this is not possible, or only possible in part, due to special circumstances, the performer/artist shall lose his or her pro rata claim to the daily fee based on the overtime fee. 

10.6. In the case of risky photographs, the client shall conclude appropriate insurance for the performer/artist. If the agency was not explicitly informed of the risk that has to be taken when the engagement was booked, the performer/artist is entitled to refuse to perform and shall receive a cancellation fee of 70 % of the total fee agreed.

10.7. The performer is not responsible for hair styling, make-up or other preparatory measures. 

11. Special considerations when booking children older then two years up to the age of completion of full-time compulsory education (only for performer bookings)
The employment of children is generally permitted only under strict legal requirements, which are actively monitored by the authorities for occupational safety. B&S can use a Power of Attorney to obtain customer service exemptions. All conditions of this special permit must be fully observed by the customer. This applies in particular to the following conditions:

• A so-called risk assessment must be carried out on the specific conditions of the venue. A template to create a risk assessment is available here from B&S. If the company consists of multiple workspaces, point 3 must often be completed accordingly.

• A competent supervisor must be appointed who will be responsible for the constant supervision of the child. It may be a parent of the child. The supervisor must be informed of the specific risks at the venue.

• The rest periods and maximum working periods, as laid out in the exemption permit, must be respected.

• A suitable dressing /waiting area needs to be provided.

• The forwarded exemption permit must be made available by the client at the venue and on the day of the event and be presented for inspection when required by the relevant authority. 

12. Special Provisions for the Further Processing of Material Using Artificial Intelligence (AI) and for the Creation of AI-Based Works

12.1. Scope of Application

12.1.a Further Processing of Material
These provisions apply to any use of material in the form of recordings or images of the performer that is further processed and optimized using artificial intelligence (AI) technologies. Only such modifications are permitted that are based on the existing material and leave its essential content unchanged, including, without limitation, retouching, color correction, format or lighting adjustments, stylistic modifications, or compositing.

12.1.b Creation of AI-Based Works
These provisions also apply to any use of material in the form of recordings or images of the performer that is processed in connection with artificial intelligence (AI) technologies—specifically generative artificial intelligence—and through which new works are created. This includes, without limitation, applications such as Invoke, Weavy, or proprietary in-house or cloud-based solutions that generate text-to-image, image-to-image, text-to-voice, or image-to-video creations by means of so-called “prompting” or comparable processes.

12.2. Definitions

LoRA (Low-Rank Adaptation): LoRA refers to a method of AI model training in which an existing base model is selectively adapted to new data by adding additional, low-weighted parameters without permanently modifying the original model.

Fine-Tuning: Fine-tuning refers to the process of further adapting an AI base model or a pre-trained AI model using additional, specific training data in order to optimize its behavior or output for a particular intended use.

12.3. Consent and Purpose of Use

12.3.1. No separate consent is required for any use of material that is further processed using AI in accordance with Section 12.1.a.

12.3.2. Any use of recordings or images of the performer for AI-based applications pursuant to Section 12.1.b requires the express prior written consent of the agency in all cases. This applies in particular to the use of such recordings as a visual template, style reference, or so-called “reference image” (“image-to-image”) for the creation of new content, scenes, or representations, as well as to their use for training purposes within generative AI systems.

12.3.3. The material provided to the customer or created in the course of the assignment, as well as any AI models derived therefrom (e.g., LoRA), may be used exclusively for the explicitly agreed written purpose, for the specified end customer, and within the agreed period of use.

12.3.4. Any training using generative AI pursuant to Section 12.1.b involving material in the form of recordings or images of the performer may only be carried out on AI systems controlled by the customer. The material may not be used for training purposes in any manner that makes it accessible to an indeterminate or unknown public. In cases of doubt as to whether such public access exists, the agency’s prior written consent must be obtained. This reservation shall also be understood as a reservation within the meaning of Section 44b (3) of the German Copyright Act (UrhG).

12.3.5. When using any AI applications, including all connected or intermediary API interfaces, cloud services, subcontractors, or other technical service providers pursuant to Sections 12.1.a and 12.1.b, the customer is obligated to actively verify that the application is compliant with the GDPR and that personal data is not incorporated into training datasets.

12.4. Compensation and Scope of the Performer’s Usage Rights
The performer’s compensation for the use of recordings or images of the performer for AI-based applications pursuant to Section 12.1.b generally consists of a production fee for the creation of a dataset enabling LoRA training or fine-tuning, and a separate fee for usage rights. The usage rights define the duration and scope (e.g., number of motifs) within which the dataset may be processed, trained, and used to generate works. Furthermore, they govern the scope of publication of the resulting works (time, territory, medium).

12.5. Protection of the Performer’s Personality Rights

12.5.1. The generation of works depicting the performer in a defamatory, discriminatory, pornographic, violence-glorifying, or otherwise degrading manner is strictly prohibited.

12.5.2. Material alterations to the performer’s physical appearance—such as significant increases or reductions in body dimensions, substantial changes in clothing status (e.g., from fully clothed to bikini or underwear), or changes in posture into a degrading form—require the agency’s express prior written consent.

12.5.3. It is prohibited to create new artificial personalities through the training of one or more real personalities where the resulting personality no longer resembles the original.

12.6. Compensation and Scope of Usage Rights in Material Created by B&S

12.6.1. Where B&S creates material in the course of an assignment pursuant to Section 12.1.b, B&S shall remain the owner of all copyrights and related rights in such material.

12.6.2. B&S grants the customer a non-exclusive, non-transferable right to use the material created in the course of the assignment and provided to the customer in the form of a dataset. This usage right entitles the customer to process the material, conduct training, and generate works pursuant to Section 12.1.b. The duration during which the material may be used for these purposes corresponds to the usage period to be agreed pursuant to Section 12.4.

12.7. Data Management, Deletion, and Continued Use of Material and Training Data

12.7.1. The customer is obligated to store the material and the AI models derived therefrom (e.g., LoRA) securely and to protect them against unauthorized access by third parties.

12.7.2. Any continued use of the material, training data, or works generated therefrom beyond the agreed usage period or scope is generally possible but requires a new express agreement and appropriate compensation to be renegotiated.

12.7.3. In order to comply with the data protection principles of storage limitation and purpose limitation pursuant to Article 5(1)(e) GDPR, trained LoRAs or fine-tunings shall be permanently deleted ten years after the date of training, unless a statutory retention obligation or a continuing legitimate interest within the meaning of Article 6(1) GDPR exists. Earlier deletion shall be carried out upon written request of the data subject, provided that no overriding legal obligations prevent such deletion.

12.8. Contractual Penalty for Breach
For each instance of culpable breach of the material provisions of this Section, in particular the restriction to the agreed purpose (Section 12.3.3) and the prohibition of training general AI systems (Section 12.3.4), for example by uploading or inputting the material into systems such as Midjourney or CapCut, the customer shall be obligated to pay an immediately due contractual penalty. The contractual penalty shall amount to ten times the agreed total compensation, but in no event less than 10.000,00 EUR. The assertion of further claims for damages by the agency or the performer shall remain unaffected. Any contractual penalty paid shall be credited against any claim for damages.

13. Confidentiality
The parties undertake to treat with confidentiality the contents of this agreement, in particular the services due hereunder and any data which is not publicly accessible and of which they have become aware in conjunction with the conclusion and execution of this agreement. The disclosure of this agreement is only permitted on the basis of mandatory statutory regulations. In this case the other party is to be informed immediately of the disclosure. This obligation shall continue to apply after this agreement has come to an end.  

14. Good conduct
The parties are committed to displaying respect, good conduct and loyalty towards each other. The parties shall in particular not make any negative public statements about the other party, its products or services. The parties shall at all times consider the reputation and public standing of the other party. The stated obligations shall continue to apply after the termination of this agreement.  

15. Data protection

For the purposes of the Federal Data Protection Act, the client undertakes to collect, use and process personal data disclosed to the client exclusively for the purposes of mediating and executing an engagement.

16.1. The client undertakes to refrain from urging the performer/artist to carry out changes or supplements to bookings.

16.2. Insofar as individual provisions of these booking conditions are or become invalid in part or in whole or contain an omission, this shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions. In such a case the parties undertake to replace the invalid or unenforceable provision by a provision which is valid and enforceable and whose meaning and purpose is equal or comes as close as possible to the economic intention of the invalid provision. This also applies to any omissions in these booking conditions.
