I did get paid. <br /><br />The challenge now is finding companies that have taken my cartoons without my permission and demanding payment. <br /><br />It's a sad state of affairs.Mike Lynchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06589354018554341768noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25473451.post-51805938870548283342010-08-25T11:35:57.854-04:002010-08-25T11:35:57.854-04:00So did you get paid?So did you get paid?Brian Fieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16347700145666751363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25473451.post-43963099563731755782010-08-25T10:50:14.740-04:002010-08-25T10:50:14.740-04:00Hey, Mike, if this happens again, let me know.

Then it went to 90! Now it's back to 45, and I'm supposed to be grateful.Jeff Phttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05996773290453294035noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25473451.post-14224035696601676712010-08-25T08:55:48.072-04:002010-08-25T08:55:48.072-04:00I think it's gotten even worse since 2006.

It's even more fun when they offer you a chance to *maybe* get paid by creating new art/films/animation for a 'contest'. Animators get this sort of exploitative thing all the time.<br />And I only freelanced for people who paid up quickly and reliably.Nancyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03559138404570089435noreply@blogger.com
