When you host a festival or event, capturing the energy and excitement with photos and videos is essential. But there’s a catch: you need consent from the people you photograph or film.
Without the right permissions, you risk breaching privacy regulations — and potentially damaging trust with your audience.
The good news? With Connie, collecting consents is fast, easy, and fits naturally into your event workflow.

The Challenge: Consent Without the Chaos
You want your photographers and videographers to move freely, capturing moments as they happen. But chasing down paper forms or manually collecting signatures can slow everything down and create a logistical nightmare.
You need a system that's lightweight, professional, and keeps you fully covered — without distracting from the experience you're creating.
How Connie Makes Consent Effortless
Connie is built to handle exactly this kind of challenge. Here's how you can set up a smooth consent collection process in no time:
1. Prepare Your Consent Template
Start by creating a simple consent form in Connie. Customize it with your event name, logo, and wording that clearly explains how photos and videos will be used.

2. Publish a SignPage
Once your template is ready, turn it into a SignPage — a dedicated link where people can easily review the information and sign digitally, right from their phone.
You can print QR codes linking to the SignPage and place them around the event (think entry points, info desks, photo zones), or include them in event communications.
3. Equip Your Photographers With SignTags
Give each photographer or videographer their own SignTag: a badge or lanyard with a QR code linking to the SignPage. If someone asks about photos, your team can simply point to the SignTag and invite them to scan and sign.
No clipboards. No lost forms. Just a quick scan and done.
