TERMS OF SERVICE
These Terms of Service form an agreement between the party set out in the relevant Quote “you” and Guerilla Creative Pty Ltd (ABN 87 749 629 582) “we, us, our”.
1.1 By engaging us, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service. These Terms of Service apply to all work we do unless we have entered into a separate written agreement with you, signed by both parties.
1.2 These Terms of Service and the relevant Quote form the agreement between us and you in respect of each piece of work (each a “Production”).
2.1 We will provide you with the services set out in the Quote in a diligent and professional manner and in accordance with these Terms of Service. For the avoidance of doubt, we are not responsible for any strategy relating to the display or communication of your Production, nor do we guarantee a minimum number of views on any platform or via any medium, unless expressly set out in the Quote.
2.2 We will provide you with a rough edit as soon as practicable following completion of the shoot, taking into account the length and complexity of the Production. You agree that while we will use reasonable efforts to meet deadlines set out in the Quote, the delivery date of the Production is not guaranteed and we will not be liable to you in respect of any loss or damage you suffer as a result of a deadline not being met.
2.3 Each Production includes two rounds of changes or revisions unless otherwise specified. If you require more than two rounds of changes, please make sure this is specified in your brief and is quoted for by us. Additional changes/revisions may be charged at our standard hourly rates.
2.4 The Production is deemed delivered once we have completed the allocated number of edits and/or have provided you with final files (as determined by us).
2.5 Subtitles or captioning are not included in our standard services but may be requested at additional cost.
2.6 You agree that we may subcontract some or all of our obligations under this agreement, provided that we remain principally liable to you in respect of such obligations.

You agree not to remove any credit included in any Production and agree that if the Production is submitted for any award you will list us as a creative partner or collaborator in all submissions.
3.1 All edits will be provided for streaming/download via a password protected video streaming service. This is provided for review purposes only, and not intended as video hosting for the final Production.
3.2 Final edits will be provided in either HD 1280×720 or 1920×1080 resolution, in 25 frames per second as an .mp4 (H264) data file unless otherwise specified. If you required another delivery format please make sure we are made aware when we are setting our Quote as other format deliveries may incur additional hourly charges to cover admin, dubbing and courier costs. We will not deliver a final edit unless and until all outstanding invoices in relation to your Production have been paid.
3.3 We use third-party suppliers for transfer/streaming services, which include password protected options. We take no responsibility for the security of third-party
hosting/transfer services. Your use of such services is subject to the terms and conditions of those services.
3.4 We use third-party services, technologies, and servers in connection with the provision of our services. You acknowledge that we do not control the reliability, availability, or ongoing functionality of such services, technologies, and servers and you agree that we will not have any liability to you in the event that any such service, technology, or server becomes temporarily or permanently unavailable, or where your use of such service, technology, or server, causes you or any third party loss, damage, or liability. In the event that a third-party service, technology, or server becomes unavailable we will use reasonable efforts to procure an alternative service, technology, or server.
3.5 You acknowledge that any third party services (including AR services and hosting services) we provide to or procure for you will be subject to time-limited rights. We will not provide or procure perpetual rights from such providers.
3.6 All raw camera video files/audio will be backed up twice across two hard drives, and archived for three months only (from the date of the final Production delivery). Longer term archival can be provided at additional cost. Whilst every care is taken by us and crew to protect and backup your files, we will not be liable to you in the event any footage is lost or destroyed.
3.7 Raw footage may be provided to you on specific request. Additional costs may be incurred to cover costs of file handing, physical media and couriers, and the grants of rights in such footage.
4.1 Where requested, we will license music for use in your Production. You must provide us with all relevant information in relation to the production and the use of the music in it as requested from third party licensors. You acknowledge and agree that the music will be licensed for the specified uses and any uses outside of those may be in breach of relevant licence agreements.
4.2 We will use reasonable efforts to obtain the requested music within the requested budget, however, you acknowledge that rates for use of commercial music are set by third parties and we do not have any control over such rates.
4.3 We accept no liability in connection with your use of licensed music. You will be the direct signatory to all licences for the use of commercial music in your Production.

6.2 Each Quote remains valid for 30 days from the date of the quotation. Productions may be quoted on a time and materials or full production basis.

6.4 Subject to clauses 6.5 and 6.6, invoices will be issued upon completion of work and unless previously agreed upon. Payment is due within 14 days of receipt of the invoice. For the avoidance of doubt, intellectual property rights in the Production are not assigned to you until payment has been made in full. In the event you do not pay in full any use by you of the Production or any other materials we provide to you will constitute an infringement of our intellectual property and in that event we reserve our rights to take any and all action available to us.

7.2 Travel within the Melbourne CBD (up to 20km from the South Yarra area) will not be charged to the client. For projects and locations outside of this area within the state of Victoria, travel will incur a charge of 72 cents per kilometre travelled.
For example: for a shoot 40km away from South Yarra (VIC), total travel will be 80km. 80km minus 20km free of charge = 60km charge for travel).
7.3 Guerilla Creative will endeavour to find the cheapest possible parking within a reasonable distance of the shoot location. All parking costs and road toll costs will be payable by you in full.
7.4 Interstate car hire charges (including fuel/tolls), flights and accommodation will be charged to you unless otherwise agreed.
8.1 We and/or our subcontractors own the intellectual property rights in and to all materials created in connection with the provision of our services to you. When you have paid for a project in full, we will assign you the rights in the final edit of the Production only. However, you acknowledge and agree that you will not use the Production for any purpose other than that expressly specified in the Quote (including any limitations on the period in which you may exploit the Production). You acknowledge that talent and music
agreements may restrict the use that can be made of the Production and that any use outside of the expressly stated purpose may breach such agreements. You indemnify us in respect of all claims, loss, cost, damage, and liability we incur or suffer as a result of your breach of this clause.

8.5 You agree that we may use your Production in connection with the promotion of our business, subject to us obtaining any relevant music or talent licences necessary for such use. You further agree that we may shoot and use behind-the-scenes photographs and videos in connection with your Production and we may use such photographs and videos for promotional purposes (including via social media).
