I would be tempted to bake everything - text into shape layers, expressions to key frames. Other than a scorched earth policy, there maybe be licensing issues with right managed stock/music.

I know that the company I work for when the client leaves they ask for everything and just the other day I saw an old client’s new spot replete will all my animations. I’m sure I’ll be getting a check in the mail any day now.

I know this has been discussed many times before, but increasingly clients expect/request all files from projects - including Illustrator, photoshop, stock footage and music, AfterFX, and 3ds MAX files.

 

Is this a trend? It has been happening also with clients that we are the agency of record with. I am uncomfortable giving away intellectual property for free and having some freelancer undercutting us using our files!

 

Thoughts?
