Rights Done Right
Navigating A Challenging and Often Confusing World
Copyright-based entertainment industries, from record companies to TV networks, streaming services, video games, museums, and art galleries, are among the most important industries in the world.
These industries rely on content produced by millions of creators: songwriters, music composers, film directors, painters, designers, authors, and performers, to name but a few. These creators typically turn to yet another segment of the industry to support and manage their rights - music and book publishers, television and film producers, copyright collectives, administrators and agents are among the many individuals and organizations involved.
To many industry insiders and newcomers to the entertainment world, the licensing rules and practices, documentation formats, data exchange standards as well as local legal frameworks and traditions can feel intimidating if not bewildering .
Key entertainment sectors are booming! Music, film, and television have been able to harness the great potential of digital technologies and monetize emerging markets.
At the same time, reliance on digital growth also creates pain points for both new and established players, including the ongoing difficulties of identifying usage of content, collecting royalties from users, and ensuring that those royalties are paid to the correct rightsholders.
With content now immediately accessible, it stands to reason that rightsholders expect to be paid more accurately and quickly. They and their representatives need timely access to detailed data to determine if it is correct and verify what they are owed. Yet they are faced with an environment that continues to frustrate their quest for clarity and equitable treatment.
