Should You Do Nude Scenes?

I like nudity. It’s one of my favorite things. I was born naked and I’m hoping to go out naked.
As an agent, I often come across roles that require actors to take off their clothes. Some of these roles are in genre films with no future and I usually encourage clients to avoid them. But there are plenty of parts in quality films and TV shows that require nudity, so the question is how do I protect actors when they’re offered those jobs?
The answer is with a nudity rider.
This is a document that is attached to an actor’s employment contract and it outlines the specifics of the scene and the conditions under which it will be shot. Space limitations prohibit me from posting an entire rider but here are a few major points from a nudity rider I used on a famous cable series:
Artist hereby acknowledges and agrees that Artist is required to appear nude and/or perform simulated sexual activity in the series. For the purposes of this rider, nudity is defined as the display of any part of the body which would be revealed if Artist were not wearing a bathing suit.
No still photography and/or stills from footage of nude scenes and/or sex scenes will be authorized by Producer to be made without the prior written
