How do we work?
Well it's a bit trite to say it, but every project is different. Sometimes it's a flat fee, sometimes it's royalties, sometimes it's a percentage of total sales, sometimes it's an hourly rate, sometimes it's a trade for a week your condo in Barbados with full use of the speedboat!
But all kidding aside, the media world is changing quickly, and we try to be as flexible as possible to meet whatever terms will work for a client's particular project.
If you want a music score or sound effects for your short film, we know you probably will have spent much of your money on production and won't have much left. So we may agree to a percentage of the fee to be deferred until you start making revenue yourself.
Or if you want a cartoon for a magazine article, we might do a 50% down, 50% at delivery agreement. Etc, etc.
So don't be afraid to reach out. If you could use some of what we do, we're sure we can work out something that works for you and for us. :)
After all, in media it's a new world. There are no rules anymore!
