Commissions :
I've been researching into commissions and doing freelance work, as I would really like to be able to sell my work, but was unsure how to go about pricing my artwork.
During the lecture, our tutor explained a lot about how selling art works, and how contracts are formed, for example I was unaware that an email could be seen as a binding contract.
When agreeing on a deal it is important to consider costs, travel expenses, if any martials are needed and there costs. The terms are really important, it is also important to clearly state a cut off time, giving them a deadline to agree on the contract. It is also important to state the time frame it will take for you to create what ever you have been asked to make, as you want to be clear on when they will receive there artwork, and to include times for you to show your progress so that the client can review if these match up to their expectations.
Important things that you must discuses with the client before agreeing on anything.
1. Budget
2. Can and when is it ok for you to use the work in a show reel.
3. How is in charge of your work, so that if you have questions you are aware of who to contact.
