[Origami] Ohio paper Folders NBC interview from today
We had an opportunity today for a five minute interview on Daytime Columbus on NBC today. We grabbed up some containers of origami to display, emailed them some photos to use for cut ins and headed over there. So some of the origami you see is from our collection, some we just borrowed in NY for two upcoming gallery shows. The video is on our web site at http://www.ohiopaperfolders.com/?page=pages/dtc_video.html and on our facebook page (ohiopaper.folders) For once, we remembered to mention everything important – our monthly meetings, the convention, the guests etc. John Scully Ohio Paper Folders jscu...@ohiopaperfolders.com
[Origami] Commercial commission - what to do?
Hello O-listers I was wondering if the list members here can give us some advice? Our little origami club (based in Sydney Australia), has been contacted by a creative agency to provide ~20 pieces of art along the themes of "People, transport and health" (sounds like an insurance company or the government to me!) Our club is small and has less than 10 permanent members (but many drop -ins). While our group is diverse, none of us work in the creative field. So we are a bit lost about what to do. I am aware of copyright issues (so we'll have to ask for permission and potentially pay some licencing-type fees if we use someone else's design). And since we are not an incorporated entity, I suspect it'll be one (or a few) or the members who will be the contractual party. Other than these, are there anything thing else we have to be aware of? Tax-wise I am not too worried about - in Australia income from a hobby is tax-exempt (as long as it is below a certain threshold, which for us it most certainly will be). I would really appreciate some advice from this group, since if we manage to get some funds out of this commission, it'll allow us to formally register the club as a "trading entity" and grow. Thanks in advance! Winnie
