Institution:

Columbia College-Chicago

Subject:

Description:

The course provides an overview of music licensing from both a legal and practical perspective. Music licensing is a broad, complex area with lots of legal pitfalls. Students will learn the process of "clearing" a song for use in radio and televisionadvertisements, film and video projects, podcasting, internet, streaming, and music recording sessions. They will explore the differences between and various uses of mechanical, synchronization, and master use licenses. Since music licenses are essentially copyright licenses, those portions of copyright law that apply to music properties will be reviewed, as well as the business contexts in which they are relevant. 1 CREDIT
