I have a wonderful, adventurous idea!
I want to create a book!
A book inspired by a beloved fantasy novel character, that has been known and loved for over 100 years.
This book would feature many fabulous Artists interpretations of said character.
Each Artist, along with myself, would submit their artwork along with an answer to a question asked of all the participating Artists.
This juicy sought after book would be available on Amazon.
Think about it! Wouldn’t this be FABULOUS!
Now, the question is…….can this legally be done?
(this idea has been posted and filed by Nicci Battilana of Duran Designs Inc. on 08 March 2015)
Im not sure if It is legal or not but If your Idea goes any further I would Love to submit A Piece! Good Idea!!
This would be a great idea, but who would do the editing, artwork and publishing? A good contest should be in the works to appeal to writers who want to get noticed and maybe win some $$.
Thanks Pam. I would be doing the editing, etc. I hope I can make this work. I need to find out if there is a copyright on the character first 🙂
I would love to participate, once you can figure out how it will be crediting the copirights of the artistsubmitting projects? I mean you would have exclusice copyright over the book , but what about the artist who will participat ? aside this question, I love the idea, it’s great fun and original !! Love your way of thinking !! 🙂
I think you need permission from whoever owns the character. My husband is a teacher and he has made a lesson book based on DC Comics characters. They are all his own drawings, but he cannot sell it for profit.
Who’s the character ? I would love to take part as well.
That would be amazing!!!
