Ok Have a client I use to edit for (color correct, audio sweeten, dvd author).
Issue though, he started nit picking about minor things audio sounds low, or is still peaking, video looks a bit grainy or low res. All these complaints over DV.
So after some back and forth time on several finished products (which he paid for). I realize that this was only delaying me from doing more.
We had a meeting and basically I told him garbage in garbage out.
The actual product doesn't start with us, but starts from the capturing.
I took a 3week hiatus spoke to him on several occasions, but never showed up I guess I was tired of the run around. In the end I settled to do just the DVD menu while the other editors do the rest.
My question to everyone... How can I get away with giving him designs
and ensuring my work isn't reused? I thought about just doing a png file (which would give me some control), but the other editors made it clear that they wanted layers so photoshop would be used. I believe that making a layer that has already been rasterized would really help.
In the end I feel my only security is a contract stating the terms and usage
of my work. HELP GUYS I'm a bit lost here...
Sorry for the lengthly message.
