The Graphic Artists Guild as partners in the creative process, are joining with Copyright Clearance Center in sponsoring this copyright awareness campaign. We encourage you to respect private intellectual property and the copyright laws that govern it.

Art or photography in portfolios submitted for a job should not be copied for any use, including client presentation or “comping”, without the creator’s permission. Similarly, images appearing in any of the talent sourcebooks and directories (either in print or electronically), should not be “swiped” for any reason. In case after case, the creator’s property rights have been upheld, and those caught engaging in these practices were penalized, paying large fines to the artists.

We appreciate your desire to use our images. Even more, we are flattered and complimented. But for a number of reasons, artists may not want to have their images used in any way, including agency representations. And any use, including “comping”, implies value that is worth some compensation.

Contact the creator before copying.
