Roland Rock Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 Not sure - I tried ringing him but not available. An educated guess? £400 upwards, but there could be significant room for negotiation if they don't have much work on at that time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Conan Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 One idea my wife used when she was working for a conservation charity was to approach a local school/college and set a competition, with prizes, for the students to produce artwork. Obviously they had to sign over any copyright, and the winners received various items of merchandise (do you have T-shirts, CDs and such-like to use as prizes?). The students also get the kudos of being a prize-winning artist while still at school/college - which can help them with applications to jobs, uni etc. Win-win situation!

thisnameistaken Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 [quote name='charic' timestamp='1333006754' post='1595971']That's a fairly good point actually. It's a good opportunity for portfolio work I suppose! I might put an ad up at the local colleges![/quote] When you're done could you spend a week recording bass parts for me? I can't pay you but you can use the recordings to get more work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also I'm not talking for free, we're just on a fairly tight budget. Rough translation : [i]nener nener[/i] Actually if you check recent threads I'm actually offering to mix a track for a BC'er for free if they can provide the music. And nope, I'm not an amateur.
