Re: model/talent release form
A standard model release form should do the trick. You'll also want to make sure the photographer signs a proper license and/or copyright assignment agreement so you can use the images as you intend.
Don't forget about location releases if you're using any private property, and finally, you may need permits from the local authorities... especially if you're planning to shut down any publicly available facilities while you shoot.
Re: model/talent release form
Hello,
Puerto Rico recognized U.S. law so a proper form that works in the U.S. is fine.
Re: model/talent release form
Because of its status, you can use a form similar to what you would use in the US - just be certain to state that Puerto Rican law will apply.
A good simple starter form is available here:
