WSA Creator's Talk 2025: Negotiating in the Dark - The Composer's contract

Contracts are the axis on which a composer’s career is built. But what happens when the fine print is hard to see? This panel sheds light on the hidden contradictions and complexities of publishing rights and buy-outs in screen music. Composers are increasingly pressured to sign away their rights in exchange for a one-off payment - a deal that may leave them without significant future royalties and with little control over how their music is exploited. In this Creators’ Talk the panelists enter into a debate to come to grips with what is at stake for individual composers and the broader ecosystem involving publishers and producers. What can composers do to better protect their rights? This talk is organised in collaboration with the European Composer and Songwriter Alliance (ECSA) and supported by Creative Europe.
