KNOW ALL PERSONS BY THESE PRESENTS, that I, [principal_name] (the "Principal"), a resident of the State of [state_law], being of sound mind and under no duress, do hereby make, constitute, and appoint [agent_name] (the "Agent" or "Attorney-in-Fact") as my true and lawful Agent, to act for me and in my name, place, and stead, with respect to the powers and authority described herein.
WHEREAS, the Principal desires to appoint the Agent to act on the Principal's behalf with respect to certain matters, as more particularly described herein; and
WHEREAS, the Agent is willing to accept such appointment and to act in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in this instrument; and
WHEREAS, the Principal intends this Power of Attorney to be governed by the laws of the State of [state_law] and all applicable provisions of the Uniform Power of Attorney Act as adopted therein.
NOW, THEREFORE, the Principal hereby declares and grants this Power of Attorney as follows:
The Principal hereby appoints [agent_name] as the Principal's Attorney-in-Fact (the "Agent"). The Agent shall have the authority to act on behalf of the Principal in all matters described in this instrument, subject to any limitations expressly set forth herein. The Agent shall exercise such powers in a fiduciary capacity, in good faith, and in the best interests of the Principal at all times. The Agent shall act with the care, competence, and diligence ordinarily exercised by agents in similar circumstances and shall not engage in any self-dealing or conflict of interest unless expressly authorized herein.
The authority granted to the Agent under this Power of Attorney is designated as follows and shall be construed in accordance with the applicable type of authority selected below.
Subject to the type of authority designated above, the Principal hereby grants the Agent the following specific powers and authority: [powers_granted] The Agent shall exercise the foregoing powers prudently and in the Principal's best interests. In the event of any ambiguity regarding the scope of the powers granted herein, such ambiguity shall be resolved in favor of granting the Agent the authority reasonably necessary to carry out the Principal's stated intentions. The Agent may employ and compensate, at the Principal's expense, such professionals, advisors, accountants, and attorneys as the Agent deems reasonably necessary to assist in the performance of the Agent's duties hereunder.
This Power of Attorney shall become effective as of 2026-04-19, subject to any springing provisions described in Section 2 above.
This Power of Attorney shall expire and terminate automatically on 2026-04-19, unless sooner revoked by the Principal or terminated by operation of law. Upon the expiration date, the Agent's authority under this instrument shall cease immediately, and the Agent shall have no further power to act on the Principal's behalf. Any actions taken by the Agent after the expiration date shall be void and of no legal effect.
Any third party who receives a copy of this Power of Attorney, whether original, photocopy, or electronically transmitted, may rely upon the authority granted herein and may act in accordance with the Agent's instructions without liability to the Principal or the Principal's estate, heirs, or assigns. No third party shall be required to inquire into the validity or continuing effectiveness of this instrument, nor shall any third party be liable for acting in good faith reliance upon this Power of Attorney. A third party who refuses to honor this Power of Attorney may be liable for attorneys' fees and damages as provided by applicable law. The Principal hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless any third party who acts in good faith reliance upon the representations and authority of the Agent under this instrument.
The Principal reserves the right to revoke, amend, or modify this Power of Attorney at any time, provided that the Principal has the legal capacity to do so. Any revocation, amendment, or modification shall be in writing and shall be effective upon delivery of written notice to the Agent and to any third party who has previously relied upon this instrument. Until a third party receives actual written notice of revocation, such third party may continue to rely upon the authority granted herein and shall not be liable for any actions taken in good faith reliance upon this Power of Attorney prior to receiving such notice. Upon revocation, the Agent shall promptly return to the Principal all documents, records, property, and funds in the Agent's possession or control that belong to or relate to the affairs of the Principal.
This Power of Attorney shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the laws of the State of [state_law], including but not limited to the Uniform Power of Attorney Act as adopted by the State of [state_law] and any amendments thereto. The Principal consents to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State of [state_law] for the resolution of any disputes arising out of or relating to this instrument. If any provision of this Power of Attorney is held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, such provision shall be severed from this instrument and the remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect.
The Agent is hereby authorized to manage all aspects of the Principal's 3D digital assets, including but not limited to rigging files, polygon models, and texture maps. This includes the power to execute licensing agreements and protect the Principal's rights under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) and the Visual Artists Rights Act (VARA). The Agent shall have the power to assert the Principal's ownership over source files and final renderings to prevent unauthorized distribution or licensing violations.
The Agent shall conduct all actions in compliance with New York General Obligations Law § 5-1501B and the NY SHIELD Act. Specifically, if the Agent accesses the Principal’s servers or render farms containing personal information of New York residents, the Agent must maintain the administrative, technical, and physical safeguards mandated by the NY SHIELD Act. The Agent is further authorized to act as the Principal's representative for all purposes under the New York City 'Freelance Isn't Free Act' (Local Law 140 of 2016), including the signing of written contracts for services exceeding $800.
Pursuant to any existing contracts for 3D services, the Agent is authorized to negotiate extensions for rendering delays or revision scope changes. However, per N.Y. Gen. Oblig. Law § 5-701, any agreement modification that extends performance beyond one year from the date of the primary contract must be executed in writing. The Agent is authorized to sign such amendments to mitigate potential liabilities regarding turnaround times and delivery milestones.

As a 3D artist in New York, your business involves complex digital assets, high-value rendering contracts, and intellectual property management. Whether you are managing high polygon count assets or overseeing a rendering pipeline, you may need a trusted agent to sign licensing agreements, manage IP under the DMCA, or collect payments under the NYC Freelance Isn't Free Act while you are on-site or incapacitated. This document ensures your studio operations and digital portfolios remain protected and managed according to New York General Obligations Law.
Beyond the standard power of attorney sections, this template adds fields specific to 3D Artist:
A power of attorney (POA) is a legal document that enables one person (the principal) to designate another person (the agent or attorney-in-fact) to make decisions and act on their behalf in specified or all matters. The document serves as a legal empowerment that allows the agent to manage affairs such as financial transactions, health care decisions, and legal proceedings, thereby ensuring the principal's affairs can be managed even if they are incapacitated or unavailable to oversee them directly.
IP Ownership Disputes
Detailed intellectual property clauses in contracts specifying ownership, usage rights, and any licensing agreements for created content.
Rendering Delays
Including specific deadlines, potential penalties for delays, and force majeure clauses in contracts to manage expectations and responsibilities.
Yes. This document can specifically authorize your agent to manage registrations with the U.S. Copyright Office under the DMCA and VARA, ensuring your source files and textures are protected even if you are unavailable to sign the paperwork yourself.
While the POA grants authority, any agent handling your digital assets must still comply with the NY SHIELD Act’s data security requirements regarding the personal information of New York residents stored on your rendering servers or client databases.
If specifically granted the power to handle 'claims and litigation,' your agent can act on your behalf to pursue non-payment claims through the NYC Department of Consumer and Worker Protection (DCWP) for unpaid 3D design services.
