Release Forms for Prior Footage & Good Form Book

Hi all!

Does anyone know where I could find a release form that would cover footage someone filmed that is later incorporated into a documentary? I'm looking for a release that covers permission to use the person's likeness who was in the footage taken, not the footage itself.

Every release I've found seems to be focused just on a material release without mentioning the likeness, or else on releasing a likeness that is being filmed in the present (whereas this was already filmed).

Also, does anyone have a suggestion of a good form book to buy? I've been considering "Media Forms for Producers" and "Contracts for Film & Television Industry" but it's hard to tell which (if either) would be helpful.

Thank you for any thoughts.
