Legal Compliance Built In
Sending call sheets via SMS is incredibly convenient, but it comes with legal requirements. TCPA (Telephone Consumer Protection Act) and 10DLC (10-Digit Long Code) regulations require documented consent before sending commercial text messages. G-Casper Pro builds compliance directly into the SMS distribution workflow so you can focus on production, not telecom law.
How Opt-In Management Works
The compliance system handles consent at every stage. Two paths are available: deal memo consent and digital opt-in. Both log a timestamped record for TCPA and 10DLC audit purposes.
- Crew member added to production
- Two consent paths: use one or both
- Track: Primary: Deal Memo
- Include SMS consent clause in deal memo
- Crew member signs deal memo
- AD marks Opted In in crew or cast list
- Track: Backup: Digital Opt-In
- System sends opt-in invitation via SMS
- Decision: Crew response?
- Path: Replied YES
- Opted In
- Path: No reply
- Pending. Re-engage before the shoot starts.
- Opted In status set — Timestamped and logged for TCPA / 10DLC compliance
- Crew member can reply STOP at any time → Opted Out
- Only Opted In members receive call sheet SMS distributions

Deal Memo Consent
Productions can also obtain SMS consent through their deal memo or crew start paperwork. If a crew or cast member signs a deal memo that includes an SMS consent clause, the AD can manually mark that person as opted in directly in the crew or cast list. No digital opt-in message needed. Below is a sample paragraph you can include in your deal memo or crew start packet:
Manually Marking Consent
When you have obtained consent through a deal memo or other paperwork, you can manually mark a crew or cast member as opted in:
- Navigate to the Crew or Cast tab
- Find the member you want to mark as opted in
- Click their SMS consent status indicator
- Set their status to opted in
- The system logs the manual opt-in with a timestamp for your records
