Evening all, just a quick query for you all...
I might soon have the privilege of doing some photo work with an extreme sports manufacturer Just emailing their marketing guy at the moment, showing him previous work etc. Of course, this will be paid work so he's enquired about my daily rates and the subsequent costs of exclusive rights to any images they need to use.
Now, I have no problem granting them exclusivity, but my question lies around copyright... In this situation, which of the following would apply?
1. I retain copyright, but grant the company exclusive rights to the image for their usage on the website/brochures/advertising/etc
2. I hand over both the copyright and exclusive rights
(Price negotiations would take place for each individual shoot depending on what's needed. I'm not after a discussion on costs, just what's considered the usual practice regarding copyright ownership in this sort of situation!)
Thanks people
