  A fashionlabel asked me to design some classic typo shirts.

  grab 1.500€ for each design (altogether 6 designs)

  or take 5 € for every sold shirt.

  shirtprice: 149 €

  the problem is you never know how much shirts will be produced and sold, it depends on the distribution.

  why dont you ask them about thier distrubution and make a contract proposal that states they have to share that info with you so you can determine your fee.

  what is your hourly rate, and how much time do you expect to spend on these.
  1500euros seems pretty good to me, but I'm maybe cheaper than you.

  I would do the job : there is not any fee mentionned in the deal, so I wouldn't mind how many shirts they will sell.

  • fuck, I didn't read carefully. anyway I would go for the 1500for each.– dyspl

  its not a small label... 1.500 € with european rightsfor 3 years is not very much, but a good reference. I expect about 1 week work, I will also do the cutting from the shirt.

  I think I will research a good distribution, and ask them for an opinion... I think they should know at best if the 5€ makes sense

  9000euros for week of work is good.
  And personnaly I rather having that money than maybe having more money if they decide to run a decent amount of shirt and if they sell them.

  • ja.. I think I will do it like that– moamoa
