Actually, again, the concept of model releases may not be relevant in the Singapore context. what you're probably referring to is obtaining a license from the commissioning party.
Darren said:Quoting from this page from IPOS (Copyright Ownership and Rights) :
From the above, if the photograph is taken for (commissioned by):
a) a person - copyright belongs to the person.
b) an object owned by XXX - rights owned by photographer unless transferred to XXX; or YYY is XXX didn't request for ownership transfer.
In the case of a person, the law is pretty clear -rights belong to the person, unless the photographer puts in the contract or sales agreement that the photographer has rights to re-use or re-sell, in which case, the photographer has to get the commissioning party to sign a model release.
