Childrens songs

[budkid1972]

I have been asked to compose 5 to 20 kids songs - the lyrics are there but the client wants the music and rcording of vocals right through to finished CD.

What should I charge for this?

All depends really, Will the client be selling them as Cds when youve completed it? Or is it a one off task for an event of some kind?

ALWAYS retain the rights to your part in creating anything... if for no other reason then to have your name on the final product.

Feel free to sign over exclusive rights to the music, but insist that your name appear next to his/hers on every song you helped with... this is ... for lack of a better analogy... your music industry resume!
