Contractual Brief Examples

Contractual Brief example 1

Here is an example of a contractual production brief (example 1). As you can see it contains the necessities in order for agreement, description of the project, who the client is and the producers. There is detailed information as to what the client expects of the production company as well as that the client will be proofing each stage of development to make sure they’re doing as they asked. It is stated that and delay in completion of the project that is out of the producers control shall alter the delivery date. This means the producers must notify the client of any delays. This brief has been kept at a simplistic format I order to waste less time reading for production companies. This still accomplishes everything as a normal contractual brief would, it has just been broken down into fewer paragraphs and less detail on price/payment.

Contractual Brief example 2

This brief (example 2) is a little different because it includes a lot more terms and conditions. This brief is a lot more thorough and would require a bit more time to anaylse compared to the other one. This contractual brief is not more complex, it is very similar to the other one in terms of what the client expects from the production company. However this brief provides projected costs that gives the production company a lot more preparation and perhaps motivation. This contractual brief also has an addendum with a large box. The client provides their detailed description on what their production idea is within this box.

Negotiation Brief Example

An example for a negotiation brief would be negotiating with estate agents in order to buy your own house. The client would be the one wanting to buy the house, resulting in a discussion between client and estate agent on the types of deals they can get with different houses. The client and business will come to a conclusion in which the client will eventually sign the release papers when happy with the house. The estate agent will try to convince the client to buy the house by remaining positive and showing them all fo the great aspects of the household.

Another example which is similar to the previous would be negotiating with car dealerships. You would have to negotiate a deal with the car dealer  in order to purchase one of their vehicles. The whole process is very similar to buying a house, the company will try to persuade you as well as giving you a 'test ride' of the vehicle. They'll show you the interior, let you sit in it etc. Eventually the client will have to come to a decision, if they end up buying a vehicle they will need to go through the signing process.
