Please read before submitting

• All commercials must be submitted on DVD and be no longer than 30 seconds in length. (Not including title or credits.) Do not submit video-cassettes or digital tapes. Do not submit original copies: Adcandy will not return any submissions.

• Adcandy will collect a 10 percent finder’s fee of any payment you receive for placing your commercial. This is a non-exclusive agreement. You are free to shop your commercial with any other entity.

• All submissions must have the actor releases and finder’s fee agreement form signed and returned.

• Adcandy will contact you before having any meetings and will not shop your commercial without your permission.

• All payment of actors will be your responsibility. If any actor is under 18, both they and their legal guardian/parents must sign the actor release. All actors appearing in commercials for any alcoholic beverage MUST be over the age of 25 at the time the commercial is filmed. It is against FCC law to allow any actor under 25 to appear in liquor advertisements.

• Only one brand or trademark can appear visibly in the commercial. This includes logos on clothing, background etc.

• Adcandy will not transcribe your concept or script and sell it to any third parties. We only shop the commercial “As Is.”

• It is at the discretion of Adcandy to shop your commercial. We reserve the right to reject your commercial for any reason.
