As a makeup artist I want to make sure I follow the law, have the correct certifications and licenses. I also need to make sure I know and understand my rights as an artist. I came up with ten questions to ask an attorney in regards my field.
- What is the difference between a license and a demonstrators license? To what extent can a demonstrators licensed be used?
- Does a makeup artist who has a certification in advanced makeup artistry, need to obtain a cosmetology licenses in which he or she practices their art if she is not in a salon? Why and why not?
- As a freelance, self-employed makeup artist do I need any of the license to have clients, be on a set, or to self promote?
- What copyrights do I own as a makeup artist?
- Would a makeup artist need to sign a model release form? Is there a form that does need to be signed to authorize the use of my artistry contribution?
- How would I write a contract that assures payment, trade for pictures and creditability?
- Do I have rights to use the images I contributed to as a makeup artist? What are the extent of my rights?
- As a fashion major, I want to collaborate with other designers. When asking to borrow merchandise for a photoshoot, do I need to sign an agreement with the designer on how the merchandise may be used or published? Would the same apply to the photographer?
- If the photo was to be published in a magazine would there be a contact between the all parties involved? How would the parties involved receive composition? Will the creative minds involved in lose all rights to the image that was being published?
- When becoming a published, creditable artist, what measures may one need to take to protect their image, creative work, published and unpublished work.
