How to License Your Art and Protect Your Rights at the Same Time
(Illustration by Øivind Hovland)
This week’s addition to the Tutorial of the Week series features a brief but informative article on protecting your rights when signing licensing contracts, by Lance J. Klass.
If you’ve ever wondered how to license your work without “signing it all away”, then I definitely recommend checking it out.
Special thanks to Øivind Hovland for providing the artwork for this post.

Thanks for another great interview, Thomas! You ask the questions that I’m sure we all want the answers to. Soojin was a fantastic guest! Her response to your question “where do you look for new talent?” underlines the importance of being visible and active on many different fronts as well as working directly on making yourself known to art directors. I’m very much looking forward to the Marshall Arisman interview!
