So, who is entitled to income derived from neighbouring or related rights when music is embedded into a film that is theatrically exhibited or in a TV programme that is broadcast to the public or used in other audio-visual works?
How do those entitled to income from neighbouring or related rights ensure that their interest is correctly registered and that they receive the income that is due when the audio-visual work is broadcast or shown theatrically. The aim of this session is to outline the principles and practice applicable to neighbouring or related rights payments when either bespoke music is written specifically or existing music is licensed for use in film and TV.
