Our profession takes unwavering dedication. Long hours, short deadlines and even shorter budgets at times. Lately, we’ve witnessed our work being shared within larger networks without proper credit to us and our talented team. It's disheartening when the energy we put into our craft isn't recognized. In my eyes, I only see it as deliberate disrespect. THEFT.
We’ve been understanding in building new connections, but there comes a point where professionalism needs to take center stage. Our company policies exist to protect the integrity of our work, and it's time to reinforce them. From this point on, any instances of copyright infringement will result in immediate action, no exceptions. No warnings. Copyright laws exist for this reason.
Every member of this team pours their soul into creating something exceptional, and our blood, sweat, and expertise deserve the recognition they command.
Respect the craft, respect the process, and let’s continue to collaborate to produce exciting work… but ensure that our contributions are acknowledged as they rightfully should be.
