The “COMPANY” is how we refer to the appointed entity (company) who is remunerating the Inflix Studios (the “CONTRACTOR”), for the proposed creative works. Inflix Studios is an Asian corporation with offices at Karachi, Pakistan.
As payment of our initial invoice the COMPANY confirms that it unconditionally understands and agrees with Inflix Studios’s terms of service below:
-
SERVICES AND COMPENSATION
1.1 CONTRACTOR agrees to perform services that will result in the creation a live-action brand video or developing a site/app/ software otherwise known as (the “Work”) and be compensated by the COMPANY. Payment is due from the COMPANY within seven (7) days of invoice. COMPANY agrees to submit a initial investment amount equivalent to 60% or full payment of the project total before the created works are set to begin, and the remaining 40% upon COMPANY acceptance of final work and before final handover of creative materials takes place.
1.2 COMPANY is entitled to request two rounds of revisions, to be submitted to CONTRACTOR within 7 business days after initial receipt of the WORK. A round has a limit of 10 change requests. A change request is classified
as a modification to the agreed storyboard. Complete frame changes do not come under the classification of modification, and will be seen as an extension to the scope of work. CONTRACTOR will complete any and all requested revisions within 7 business days that adhere to original work scope set in the script and storyboards stages. Post these changes, the work shall be considered completed and final. The WORK’s production schedule is a speculative approach based on goals and milestones and cannot be seen as a literal representation of project delivery, therefore neither the CONTRACTOR or COMPANY is entitled to further compensation should the final submission date fall beyond the proposed sign-off date.
1.3 In the event that the CONTRACTOR is engaged by the COMPANY beyond the rounds of included revisions to perform any act or execute any further work, the COMPANY recognises that the CONTRACTOR must be compensated by $100.00 (USD) per hour for each hour or portion thereof spent at the request of COMPANY in the performance of required acts. The amount of revisions for each stage are stated on page two of the proposal: Proposed Process page.
