Television broadcasts

Your work lives on on the screen. That, too, creates value.
If a performance is recorded and broadcast on television, this may result in additional revenue.

What's in it for you?
  • You will receive income when your work is broadcast on television
  • Television broadcasts are paid separately from live performances
  • Your work also reaches a new audience through the screen

From broadcast to payment: here's how it works
  • Your work is recorded and broadcast on television
  • The broadcaster will indicate the use of your work
  • Royalties are paid for that broadcast.
  • We calculate your share
  • You will receive your payment
How is your income calculated?

That depends on:

  • the type of use (full recording, excerpt, etc.)
  • the reach and frequency of the broadcast
  • your contribution to the work

Any rebroadcast of a production in which your work appears can generate additional income.
