MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING
Effective Date: 05/01/2025
BRYANT JOHNSON and KATHARSIS MEDIA INC.
For Editing Services on “Unscripted Reality” and “Salad Bowl America”
This Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) is entered into by and between Bryant Johnson (“Producer”) and Katharsis Media, a New Mexico-based media company (“Editor”), collectively referred to as “the Parties,” effective as of the date of the last signature below.
1. Purpose
This MOU outlines the terms and scope of editing services to be provided by Katharsis Media for segments of the television series “Unscripted Reality” and “Salad Bowl America.”

Katharsis Media will provide light editing services on footage that has already been live edited. This includes:
- Cutting recordings for time and to remove long pauses, hesitations, or technical disruptions

3. Payment Terms
Each episode will be edited at a flat rate of $50 per episode, paid up front.
4. Revisions
