eLesson | Clearing Music Rights

When talking about making movies, dealing with rights clearance issues may not sound like the most exciting part. But throughout the entire production workflow, there are a lot of legal questions to respond to:
What do I have to do when my script is based on real events and real people? Do I have to clear the artwork in the background? What do I need to consider when using copyrighted music? Is there an insurance against possible claims?
It is crucial to have at least a basic knowledge about the different rights involved and to follow a structured clearance strategy.

The following e:training will guide you through the process of rights clearance in film and TV productions and will help you to navigate this complex arena!

EPI would like to thank Martin Diesbach from SKW Schwarz Rechtsanwälte with whom we have jointly developed the content  as well as our distinguished experts!
