Evening,
a quick question about best steps forward...
I saw on twitter a photographer requesting where to send an invoice for unauthorised use of an image when a club announced a new player for the new season. This got me thinking, so had a quick search on twitter of all the players who left the club i photograph over the summer. I have found one club announcing the signing of one of the players with a (very) brief pen pic photo in a video and then in the next tweet a photo of the player in a match...both my photos.
question...
a. Is it worth chasing this club for payment for unauthorised use (i will obv check with my club to see if i need to re educate them if they are giving them out)? it won't be big bucks but every little helps
b. how best do i go about it? send email to their media officer pointing it out and see what they say? or ask for payment straight away?
cheers
