Minnesota Consents To The Use of Name is a type of legal document used to grant permission for the use of an individual's name and likeness in a variety of formats and media. This document is typically used by companies, organizations, or other entities that wish to use an individual's name or likeness for marketing, promotional, or other commercial purposes. Generally, the individual grants permission for only a specific type of use, such as a specific advertisement, product release, or one-time event. There are two main types of Minnesota Consent To The Use of Name: Model Release and Talent Release. A Model Release grants permission for the use of an individual's name and likeness to be used in film, video, photographs, and other types of media. A Talent Release grants permission for the use of an individual's name and likeness in advertisements, commercials, and other marketing materials. Both types of Minnesota Consent To The Use of Name requires the individual to sign the document and provide their consent prior to the use of their name or likeness.
