I'd ask what their budget might be and if it sounds cheap ... offer a double or quadruple their price and work from there. And if they offer like peanuts? Stay hard nose your price and let them sweat a bit... then work your way down! But don't give it away just to have your name on the roll out of credits at the end of the production! cheers, ted ----- Original Message ----- From: "Richard Man" <richard at richardmanphoto.com> To: "Leica Users Group" <lug at leica-users.org> Sent: Monday, August 06, 2012 7:04 PM Subject: [Leica] Licensing a single image for a documentary film > Someone is inquiring about licensing one of my images for a documentary > film about a spiritual person's life.
