Frequently Asked Questions

How does Happ help animators?

Happ helps animators manage contracts, payments, and collaborations in one place - with tools to define rendered files as the deliverable, retain source files with a licensing option, cap revisions, and require new agreements for secondary use.

How do I price source file access?

Your agreement defines rendered files as the deliverable. Source files are a separate asset - you set the licensing price and terms.

What if a Collaborator wants to use my animation in a different campaign?

Future campaign usage beyond the original brief requires a new agreement. This is documented in your original terms.

How do I handle the 'can you just tweak this' requests?

Revision rounds are capped. Each request beyond the agreed rounds is invoiced at your rate.

Can I keep ownership of the creative systems I develop?

Yes. IP terms in your agreement specify that design systems, frameworks, and methodologies you develop remain your intellectual property unless explicitly transferred.

How do I get paid throughout a long project instead of waiting until the end?

Structure milestone payments around your workflow - concept approval, first draft, revisions, and final delivery. You collect at each stage instead of waiting until the end.

What if a Collaborator uses my work in markets or formats I didn't agree to?

Usage rights in your agreement define exactly where and in what format your work can appear. Merchandise, international markets, and format adaptations each require a separate licensing agreement.
