Types of Brief:

Contractual Brief: A brief that outlines the terms and conditions of a brief between a client and a media producer. It is a legal document that must be signed by both parties in order to be legally binding. They usually outline the following

• Pay and Budget 
• Rules and regulations that are to be followed when shooting 
• Schedules and timetables
• Guidelines that pertain to the expectations of the client

This brief is usually established to avoid mistakes being made when a producer has been hired to create a media production. If it is not followed correctly the media production company/service that has been commissioned can face legal action taken by the client. It reduces the need for negotiation. 

PROS:

• Gives the production company an advantage as they have complete transparency in regards to what is expected of them by the client. 
• Usually everything done by the production company is covered by insurance
• It guarantees that the media company will get paid .

CONS:

•
