PRICING GUIDE
The price for each job is arrived at by negotiation with the client. Normally
a one year exclusive licence is granted to reproduce the illustration
in a specific form, for a specific use within a given territory. The size
of print run may also affect cost and also whether the pictures will be
colour or monochrome. Other factors. such as time scale, may also have
a bearing on price.
IMPORTANT:
Copyright in the work is not usually assigned; if the client insists on
owning copyright then the fee will be substantially more than for a licence
for agreed usage.
Additional expenses e.g. the cost of couriers, postage etc, may also be
charged to the client.
TERMS & CONDITIONS
A purchase order is required before work can commence.
Please e-mail or post this to the artist.
First-time foreign (i.e: non UK) clients must first pay a 50% deposit.
A written acknowledgement of your order will be mailed or e-mailed, detailing
the specification of the job as understood, the terms of the licence and
also stating the following:
The artist retains
ownership of full copyright in the work and is free to sell further
rights for its use unless otherwise agreed. If the client takes up additional
rights, permission must first be obtained and a fee will be agreed at
that time. If the client buys the original artwork, the sale of further
rights by the artist is not affected.
Full payment will
be made within 30 days of the date of the invoice. Rights as agreed
are not granted until payment in full has been received by the artist.
The artist can
only keep to the agreed delivery dates if any necessary reference material
is supplied and the rough is passed without delay. The client is responsible
for the clearance of copyright of any reference material supplied for
use by the artist
If the work is
cancelled a proportion of the fee will be payable according to the amount
of work done.
If the work is rejected at rough stage the client will pay one third
of the agreed artwork fee plus agreed expenses.
If the finished artwork is rejected the fee is negotiable but it will
not be less than half the agreed artwork fee, and if the artist has
followed the brief correctly and the work is consistent with that originally
shown to the client then the full fee is payable.
NOTE: If a rough rejection fee is paid the client has no right to use
any part of the work and the rough and/or original artwork remains the
property of the artist.
The artist asserts
his moral right of paternity and integrity, therefore the client does
not have the right to make any alteration to the work unless agreed
with the artist.
The artist retains
the right to use the work for self-promotion.
Where possible,
the client will supply at least 3 proofs or printed copies of the work.
All future dealings
between the client and the artist shall be on these standard terms and
conditions unless otherwise agreed.
For UK customers:
These terms and conditions are governed by the law of England and Wales
and may not be varied except by agreement in writing. The parties hereto
submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the English Courts.
