Not sure who's getting these percentages---you or the production house. At any rate, it looks like a co-pub deal in which person X would get 20% of synch revenue (meaning up-front synch fees and back-end residuals), 20% of mechanical (you'd likely see this if there was a soundtrack album made; not sure how DVDs would factor in), and the 50% performance share is sort of a non-issue; I can hardly imagine a situation in which your song would be performed (unless you're John Williams), and even if it were performed, performance royalties are so hard to track that they are typically rolled into a blanket license if you're a restaurant or small venue, and really only bring in some good money if you're, say, Pearl Jam covering a Neil Young song at your local LiveNation mega-venue. That being said, there are some arguments going on right now as to what constitutes a performance---is streaming from Spotify and Turntable.fm a performance? Good stuff to keep your eye on.20% of all synch revenue and mechanical revenue, 50% of all direct performance revenue, and 100% of the composers share from your performing rights organization.
This, if I may be so bold, is the question that big record companies who offer shit deals, and local bars that ask you to pay to play, and all sorts of other lizards, hope you'll ask.Fader4D8 wrote: Should I be lucky to be getting any work ?
