frank_merkle Posted June 4, 2005 Share Posted June 4, 2005 I need a contract for the transfer of a copyright, hopefully something simple that I could maybe copy from the web & make whatever changes necessary. The details being: I'm buying the rights to a single photo (from a series of photographs) from a producer that used a "work for hire" photgrapher ... I'm wondering how detailed the agreement should be and exactly what it should include. I'm hoping that someone could point me to a website that has examples of such an agreement.

ellis_vener_photography Posted June 4, 2005 Share Posted June 4, 2005 the basic language to use is " "Upon full and complete payment of this invoice, all rights in perpetuity including the copyright to the photo described herein are transfered to Frank Merkle , his heirs and assigns. Seller warrants that he owns the all rights and copyright to said photograph and transfers them to purchaser for the agreed upon amount. Seller agrees to emdemniy the purchaser against any present and future claims by third parties including the creator of the photographand any persons or properties whose likeness is in the photograph described herein," Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
