It is said that everyone gets their 15 minutes of fame. Well, I've got to say that if the 3D artwork I busted my ass to get done for [name deleted], delivered 16 May 2010, is the only 15 minutes of fame I will ever see, I want my money back.
Actually, guys, I'd just like to get paid instead of having to put up with all your stupid "the check's in the mail/the wire's on it's way" bullshit games. Man! I thought we were all adults here? I guess not.
Well, even though I was stupid and never got [name deleted] to sign the service agreement, which they emailed me back saying it was fine, and then like a dumb-ass I released all my images to them before I saw any reciprication, let's hope, by the middle of June, that [name deleted] holds up their end of the bargain, so I don't actually have to spend money to get myself a lawyer and write even more unseemly run-on sentences with exclamation points!
However, all things considered, I'm not too worried. I'm still very proud of my work (even if I ain't Pixar). Yes, it's true. I do rock. I'm awesome. My Mommy told me so, and I believe her.
How do I know I could win a lawsuit against a corporate titan like [name deleted], who has visions of big government contracts with the military and Homeland Security, even though the bums never signed my service agreement?
Well, besides all the detailed email traffic between myself and the CEO of the company stating the facts, [name deleted] has already used all my renders for promotion (not to mention the fact that they're viewable on hundreds of news websites). Plus, the images are still mine under current copyright laws regardless of whether or not my name is on them or I've filed for copyright.
How can be sure I would win a lawsuit if they decided not to pay? Well, I'm not psychic, but I am the only one in the world who has all the 3D Studio Max source files.
