Useage calculators, licence generators and copyright.
Our friends at the Association Of Photographers in London have an interesting online tool for calculating usage http://home.the-aop.org/Usage_Calculator . its another tool in the arsenal of working out what to charge.
if this concept is new to you, read this – http://asmp.org/tutorials/licensing-guide.html some of the copyright law is a US centric, but the principles are universal – for specifics of Australian copyright law in relation to photographers please go tohttp://www.copyright.org.au/find-an-answer/browse-by-keywords/ type in “photography” and several useful and free pdfs can be downloaded
the AIPP have also been supporters of the PLUS coalition since day one ! there’s a really good licence generator here http://www.useplus.com/pluslicensegenerator/Steps/Start.aspx that will at the minimum, give you some ideas about the language to use
Perhaps others could share favourite tools or methods for calculating usage ?
