Elisabetta, or ‘Betta’ as we fondly call her, is a member of the NO!SPEC committee.
When I posted a rant about yet another spec competition, it was Betta who suggested “Maybe we could do an anti-spec work week … We could run a campaign”.
From Betta: Your work has value, your time spent in learning your profession, your expertise, your design should get the exchange they deserve. Don’t do projects before the client pays you at least a deposit and use a contract spelling clearly your rights and the client’s on any of the artwork and files used in the project. Not doing so could potentially end up in a rip off of your work, as the client might give your artwork to someone else who will ‘finish it for free’ leaving you with no compensation.
