Digital TFP contract
If you’re looking for a digital TFP contract, you usually don’t want “more paperwork” — you want a calm closure per shoot.
As Living Consent, this is a shared approval: one shared state + history instead of scattered PDFs/chats.
Spontaneous TFP shoots happen fast: short agreements via DM, a PDF via WhatsApp, maybe an printout that gets signed “at some point”. Both sides agree — and still everything ends up spread across folders, chats, and versions. That’s how a TFP release looks in real life.
TFP contracts are often settled quickly. Both sides are aligned. What gets unclear later: which version applies, which usage was meant, and whether it was deliberately released as a closed state.
A signed PDF shows an agreement. It does not show when a process was closed. If you need to prove a TFP agreement later, a traceable closure for the occasion helps most.
You work per shoot as one occasion, prepare the TFP text digitally, and let participants approve.
Then you deliberately decide what should be closed.
LegitForm separates approval from closure.
- Create an occasion per shoot.
- Prepare the TFP document digitally (incl. scope/purposes).
- Participants approve (interim state).
- Finalize relevant TFPs deliberately.
- Proof is created: PDF + protocol (timestamped).
Not every draft needs to become “final” — closure is a deliberate decision.
- Clear mapping per shoot — everything per occasion, not scattered.
- Less version discussion because scope and state are clear.
- Deliberate closure: finalizing marks the end state.
- Proof only when needed — pay only when you finalize.
This logic isn’t only for TFP shoots, but also for photography shoots and video productions — and anywhere agreements and consent need to be combined (e.g. social media, agencies).

What is a TFP contract?
A TFP contract describes a collaboration without a fee where both sides receive something (e.g. images and usage rights). In practice it’s important that it stays clear what the images may be used for and which shoot the agreement belongs to. That’s where clean occasion mapping helps.
Is a signed TFP PDF enough?
A signed PDF can work as a document. What often becomes unclear later: which version applies, what scope was meant, and whether the state is unambiguous. LegitForm makes the flow visible per occasion and creates exportable proof only when you finalize (PDF + protocol).
When is proof created?
Only when you finalize. Before that, an approval is stored only as an interim state for the occasion and is not exportable yet. When you finalize, PDF + protocol with timestamp are created and proof becomes exportable.
Do I need to finalize every TFP?
No. You collect drafts and approvals for the occasion and finalize only the relevant ones — when you actually need closure and exportable proof. That keeps the flow calm and you pay only when needed.
Can I use LegitForm outside of TFP as well?
Yes. The principle “occasion → interim state → finalize → proof” fits anywhere approvals should remain traceable later — e.g. photo, video, social media or agencies. You can use LegitForm independent of the use case.
