Dear TBWA/bec team, i did NOT give you my permission to use my ©opyrighted videos in your advertising campaign. You did NOT offer adequate compensation or credit and no deal was made.

Please let us know what you think.
You will need to agree on term and conditions as stated on a ADIDAS RIGHTS RELEASE FORM. (find attached)
We hope to hear from you soon.

Dear Erika & Vivienne, Adidas is a multibillion euro company, to use my © video in an advertising campaign they should pay me at least 10,000 euros. That’s way below normal. Thank you anyway, sincerely geogodley
Ok, thank you for the reply. We respect your point of view. In fact we are just sorry as we think your video would really suit this project.
Just to let you know. I hope we could make clear to you what we are asking. The 10k compensation you are reffering to is not based on realistic fees. I actually can tell based on experience in non-commercial and commercial productions.
Yes it is an Adidas project, but the offer we made to you is more in line with what the commercial use of 3 to 5 seconds of amature or pre-shot (stock)footage on the internet for a period of 1 year would cost. This is not a heavy Adidas TV campaign which we talk about. Its an online ticket promotion of a rather creative online platform.
Are you a professional? The shot we’d like to use is of such quality actually.
If you would be interested, we are willing to go back to our financial backoffice to see if we could work out a more workable fee for you.
And what about a non-exclusive license so you can keep all the rights to yourself, but just approve that adidas uses it to for this purpose.
When you really don’t want anything to do with this all, you will have my word: we won’t bather you again.
Have a good night
All the best
Erika V.
