Gary Granada vs GMA Kapuso



My heart bleeds for Gary Granada, and for all other artists who find themselves in the same predicament.

I know some comix artists gets commissioned by these giant TV networks to design the costumes for their superhero primetime programs and then gets zilch for their effort or waits for an inordinately long time to get paid. It doesn't matter if the artist devoted 15 minutes or 2 days to draw the costume design (or in Gary Granada's case, to compose it), they should be properly acknowledged and peremptorily compensated for their work.

It's high time for these companies, not to mention for all Filipinos, to respect the rights of artists to their work.

We can thank these artists by respecting their rights.
