<<RECIPIENT_NAME>> <<RECIPIENT_TITLE>> <<PRODUCTION_COMPANY_OR_THEATER>> <<STREET_ADDRESS>> <<CITY_STATE_ZIP>>Re: Permission to display <<PRODUCTION_COMPANY_OR_THEATER>>'s name and logo in Hook And Eye Co.'s "Work for" partner-credentials section
Dear <<RECIPIENT_SALUTATION>>,
I'm Lindsey, the principal at Hook And Eye Co. — a costume and garment shop in Austin, Texas. We built <<GARMENT_OR_COSTUME_PACKAGE_DESCRIPTION>> for <<PRODUCTION_NAME>>, designed by <<DESIGNER_NAME_OR_NA>>, in <<PRODUCTION_RUN_YEAR_OR_RANGE>>.
I'm writing to ask your permission to display <<PRODUCTION_COMPANY_OR_THEATER>>'s name (and logo, if available and you're willing to share specifications) in Hook And Eye Co.'s "Work for" partner-credentials section — a small social-proof row on our website (and corresponding sections in print marketing) that names the production companies, theaters, and trade partners we've built work for. The intent is past-work documentation: showing prospective clients which productions we've contributed costumes and garments to as a trade-side vendor, not suggesting any current or ongoing formal affiliation, sponsorship, endorsement, or product- licensing arrangement.
The name (and logo, if shared) would appear in the following places, all of them past-work documentation:
- "Work for" partner-credentials row on our website at <<HOOK_AND_EYE_WEBSITE_URL>>
- The corresponding project page describing the build (linked from the partner-credentials row)
- Print marketing materials — brochures, exhibition or trade-show panels, presentation decks for prospective clients and other production partners
In every appearance where your name or logo is displayed, we commit to the following:
- No suggestion of affiliation, sponsorship, or endorsement: your name and logo will appear only in clear past-work documentation context, never in product packaging, advertising, or partnership claims.
- Past-work scope only: the credit appears in connection with the specific past production named above, not as a general "current trade partner" or "preferred vendor" claim.
- Linking and attribution: we'd link to your production's listing or your company's website where the format allows, and follow any preferred attribution wording, hashtags, logo specifications, color guidelines, or press-credit conventions you maintain.
- Designer-credit protocols deferred to: if a credited designer is involved and has their own portfolio-use or photography protocols, we'd defer to those alongside yours.
- Per-production scope: this permission covers the <<PRODUCTION_NAME>> work specifically; for future productions under our trade relationship, we'd ask permission per-production unless your office prefers a standing arrangement covering all collaborative work, in which case we'd be glad to formalize that separately.
Separately, if you'd be willing, we'd also welcome permission to display photographs of the costumes and garments — as worn in production, in our shop during build, or in a portfolio shoot — in the same past-work context, subject to the production-run timing above. The name+logo ask is our primary request; the photography ask is optional and may follow on a separate timeline.
This permission would be non-exclusive, would not impair any of your rights in your name, logo, or underlying production identity, and would remain in effect until you ask us to retire the display — in which case we'd remove your name and logo from forward-going use within thirty days of your written request. The underlying production rights remain yours.
If this works for you, a brief written confirmation by reply email or signature on the line below is all we need. If your press office or production coordinator should be the point of contact instead, please let us know and we'll route the request appropriately.
Thank you for considering this — and for the production that gave this work its scope.
Sincerely,
Lindsey Rae
Hook And Eye Co.
