My partner and I were on a shark cage diving tour and happened to see (and film) some orca whales attacking a great white shark. We
have been contacted by a production company who works for discovery channel and they are interested in licensing the footage. They
have asked for our rates for the following packages:
Can you provide rates for the following rights packages?
1) Media: All media
Territory: Worldwide
Term: In Perpetuity
Per second rate: $___
2) Media: All media (excluding theatrical media)
Territory: Worldwide
Term: 10 years
Per second rate: $___
3) Media: All media (excluding U.S. Standard TV & theatrical media)

We are complete amateurs and have no idea where to begin with prices. Does anyone have any base prices we can start at or even
some advice on where to go from here? We know the footage is very rare and that no one else has similar footage of the same quality.
We don't want to go in at a ridiculous price but also don't want to miss out on money as we assume they have a very big budget! They
want the footage for a feature film they are making.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!!! Thanks :)
