Hey everyone.

Quick question about selling rights to an animation I produced.

The animation in question is here:
http://vimeo.com/7049421

I created the animation to submit to the Greyscale Gorilla 5 second projects contest. It was just a fun little thing I made and I won the contest.  I own the rights to everything in the video except for the music select.

I was just approached by a German production company creating a commercial for VODAFONE.  They are requesting to license the rights to use the 5 seconds of footage for 1 year for all media in Germany.  They've offered 1000€ for the rights.

I received this message through Vimeo's message system, not directly.

I was wondering if anyone on the list has ever had the experience of doing this and if there's anything I should be cautious about.

I'm flattered that this video I've created is being considered for use like this. Especially since it was just a little fun project to make on a whim.   And $1,300 USD out of nowhere, for something I never expected to get paid for, definitely sounds great to me.

Let me know your thoughts.

Thanks!
