apologies if I should have posted this to another newsgroup; this post
is related to the business end of video production...
I have a client who, through her own foolishness, has chosen to
terminate our working relationship with a project that is 95%
completed. She is demanding that in return for final payment, I send
to her all files associated with the project (presumably so she can
continue it with someone else).
Now, she has no way of knowing what all the files are; I could easily
send her whatever I want (e.g., flattened Photoshop files, Final Cut
project files which won't link up with re-named video files, etc) and
tell her 'that's it, where's my check?'. I have a feeling she will
demand help with the files, which I will of course refuse; she
terminated our working relationship and I am under no obligation to
help her any further with them.
What I would really like, however, is as a backup to be able to quote
back at her my right to the working materials. That is, I contracted
with her to produce a video and website. I did not contract with her
to provide the raw footage files or other 'working materials'.
I need a reference to the UCC or whatever other legal citation I can
show her which proves that I am under no obligation to provide her
with anything other than a video and a website. Could someone point me
in the right direction? Googling has not really turned up what I am
after.
Thanks in advance.
