Teaching Artist Royalties to Creators and Startups
Description:
Royalty rates, royalty reporting and earnings are some of the least understood--yet most important--parts of a creator's career or a startups nightmare. Understanding royalties is as important as understanding how to balance your checkbook. Starting with metadata and simple revenue streams, leading to complex calculations and government run compulsory licenses and sometimes impenetrable royalty statements, the workshop gives educators tools and building blocks to teach the subject.
