General Stock Discussion / Marketing a Miss Piggy graphic design - advice appreciated...
« on: August 02, 2011, 14:33 »
Ive been working on an graphic design relating to The Muppets. There is a new film coming out in November, so my creation is or will be topical. Its extremely colourful and abstract, though highbrow.
My design will work as a poster/print or on a T-Shirt and thats the problem. The image of The Muppets (actually its Miss Piggy) is owned and protected by Disney. That said, my understanding is that my design can be used to illustrate an article or news feature in a newspaper or magazine, without too many problems.
Therefore do I submit my design to a single agency or do I directly contact a myriad of titles and/or publishers? Obviously my design is not a photograph, and I hope those reading this wont be offended, but it would be good to find the means to financially exploit my design.
Im thinking of submitting it the Press Association, or am I being too ambitious.
All advice is appreciated.
Best Wishes
