Hi. I am pretty new to illustration and wanted a little bit if advice in a project I am taking on. I am in talk with a wedding planner about illustrating a colouring book. They have made up the characters and the story behind it and i am to draw the ideas and make the illustrations. They are now talking about copyrights in case someone tried to copy the product. They are wanting to know if I can sign over my copyrights of the illustrations. I am just wondering if this is the right thing to do. They said it is so that if there is a case they can fight it without involving me
If I do should I be charging them if so what price range and do I put any terms in? They have said that I can use the images to promote my work and are giving me credit on the book. I don't think that it is going to be a big product with mass buyers. I am not even sure if i am charging enough to start with. I have been selling my own one of family portraits and this is my first venture with a business. I know I will learn from my mistakes but any advise would be welcomed if you have a spare few minutes.
