Creating a living: Why a Right to Remuneration is the solution for audiovisual authors

Athanasios VenitsanopoulosAuthors earnings, Events, IAF, News, SAA

Following the release of the Creating a Living report and the previous online webinars on Public Lending Right and Artist Resale Right, the International Authors Forum (IAF), in partnership with the Society of Audiovisual Authors (SAA) and Writers & Directors Worldwide (W&DW), is organising a webinar about how important the right to remuneration is. Authors deserve their royalties in exchange for the transfer of their exploitation rights to producers, subject to collective management.

The webinar will be held online via Zoom on 20th May at 14:30 BST/15:30 CET. You can register for this event here.

John Degen, IAF Chair, will be hosting this event.

Panellists:

Fabia Buenaventura Canino, Head of Audiovisual Rights, Sociedad General de Autores y Editores (SGAE, Spain)

Silvio Caiozzi, Director and President of Sociedad de Directores Audiovisuales, Guionistas y Dramaturgos (ATN, Chile)

Cécile Despringre, Executive Director, Society of Audiovisual Auhtors (SAA)

Antonio Hens, Author and Member BoD of Sociedad General de Autores y Editores (SGAE, Spain)

Patrick Raude, Secretary General of Société des Auteurs et Compositeurs Dramatiques (SACD, France)
