Add me to the list of those whose think being an anonymous provider smacks of work for hire. And Chris is right, be very scrutinizing of the copyright arrangement, don't give away something for nothing.

If you were to remain behind the scenes, how would the creative background information flow to you from the client? If it comes only through your rep, it's a very cumbersome way to work.

Most of the agents I've worked with have taken 30%, as it's a little less overhead intensive than a gallery, where they have to pay for their wall space, and usually charge 40% or 50%.

And in answer to your other question, you'd split 70-30 on your PROFIT (price less production expenses), not your selling price.

I've had 'em, there are some good ones. But way more bad ones than good ones. Be careful.
