Honey, have you seen my royalties? Protecting your intellectual property in the age of live-streaming and social media

Theatre professionals have enough on their to-do lists without adding the protection of their designs and performances from media misuse - or being the one responsible for the protection of others' work. How do we ensure appropriate compensation for the work of our Artists, Designers and Workers? This moderated session will lay out best practices and sad stories, the history of entertainment content theft and how our Industry is working to support a fair and equitable framework of control and compensation. A must-attend event for all of us who deal with Designer and Artist contracts.
