| bad experiences
I also had very bad experiences with this area. I no longer go through the make it and we will buy it if we like it.
Almost 10 years ago, a very famous chain of supermarkets asked an agency to create a nice jingle for summer. 5 studios, including mine presented some sketch. At the end, the cdishonest agency ended up doingit with someone else and we somewhat felt the taste of some minor ideas of ours in there.
In another opportunity, a famous big summer beach shopping center contracted me to do their summer jingle. I did for them in 1997, 1998 and 2000 and the 1998 version was considered the best pop dance jingle of the year.
They ended up using the 1998 ragga version also in 1999 and the "2001 Ricky Martin" version also in 2002.
At late 2004 they called me for a new jingle. I asked for twice I charged at those years. They probabçly ended up doing it with some bedroom studio out there for U$200.
It is hard to ask for royalties with this kind of stuff.
Even worser is if someone wants to contract you to sing in a political jingle that the other candidate is gay
no way
Ad he lost it - bingo!!
Back to work proes
