About this listen
Eric invites attorney Hillary Johns, who specializes in entertainment law and represents a wide variety of artists and creatives, onto the podcast to discuss some of the big issues artists face when releasing their intellectual property out into the world. Artists are so involved in the creation of their art that they often forget, or are simply ignorant, to copyright their work and take steps to protect themselves from others taking credit -- and potentially future royalties -- for their work.
Hillary explains the basics of copyright, licensing, fair use, and explains why you should think carefully about setting up contracts and agreements before collaborating with others on work. Too often artists collaborate without clearly spelling out who owns which ideas, and who contributed which parts of the finished work, only to get into legal battles over royalties when one of their works becomes commercially popular. Hillary explains some basic steps you can take to protect your work and keep others from profiting off your ideas.
