    MUSIC PUBLISHING 101 – WHAT IT IS AND HOW TO START YOUR OWN COMPANY “Music publishing is the owning and exploiting of songs in the form of musical copyrights.” – Randall Wixen, The Plain and Simple Guide to Music Publishing For free access to this presentation visit my website: www.mckaytebbs.com TABLE OF CONTENTS • Music Publishing • Performance Rights Organizations (PRO’s) • Starting Your Own Publishing Company • Case Study: The Beatles Music Catalog WHAT IS MUSIC PUBLISHING? • Music publishers are companies that derive income from promoting and managing copyright protected musical works or songs. • Music publisher responsibilities include: • Acquiring Songs • Marketing Songs • Managing Copyrights • Issuing Licenses • Promoting and Placing Songs • A songwriter can be his/her own publisher or hire an outside company to manage the publishing. PUBLISHING PROCESS • Every time a song is written……….. • It’s income potential is split into two halves. • The Writers Share • The Publishers Share • Copyright ownership is automatic (but you should still register it). • A song is published when it is made publicly available. LICENSES • Publishers issue licenses to generate income from songs in their catalog. • License – Permission to use a song • Types of licenses: • Mechanical • Performance • Synchronization • Print • Foreign WHO PAYS A MUSIC PUBLISHER? • Music publishers generate money from placing songs in movies, TV, advertising, video games, sheet music, radio and recordings. • Performing Rights Organizations (PRO’s) like ASCAP, BMI and SESAC collect money for public performance. • Harry Fox Agency collects mechanical fees for recordings. • Publishers also collect their own fees for issuing other licenses themselves. WHO DISTRIBUTES THE MONEY? SELF PUBLISHING • Songwriters can create their own publishing company • Benefits include: • More creative control • 100% ownership of copyrights • 100% ownership of both shares • Drawbacks include: • Must provide marketing, promotion and administration • The success of a song depends directly on your efforts.

  • Youtube, Pop Music, and Power in a Philippine Prison Video Thesis
    Dangerous Mediations: YouTube, Pop Music, and Power in a Philippine Prison Video Thesis submitted in accordance with the requirements of the University of Liverpool for the degree of Doctor in Philosophy by Áine Mangaoang September 2014 ABSTRACT Dangerous Mediations: YouTube, Pop Music, and Power in a Philippine Prison Video Áine Mangaoang The cultural crossings between music, new digital media, prison and postcolonial Philippine culture form the basis of Dangerous Mediations, which provides a close, intertextual reading of a contemporary prison performance to question the assumptions behind seemingly familiar, entertaining audiovisual media content. Through the lens of critical cultural studies, and ethno/musicology, I examine the interplay between Michael Jackson’s renowned hit Thriller (1983) and a specific interpretation of this work by a group of 1500 Filipino inmates at the Cebu Provincial Rehabilitation and Detention Centre (2007). Rereading Jackson’s impact on popular music and culture in light of postcolonialism, penology, popular music studies, YouTube theory, and in relation to Philippine culture, I trace the evolution of this contemporary music and dance practice within Cebuano culture, as it is transformed and mediated online. I address the prevalent idea of music as an innately positive power, and through a close reading of this irresistible performance, I deconstruct prevailing (dangerous) stereotypes regarding the ‘inherently musical Filipino.’ Reflecting on how, why, and to what effect popular performance can pollinate across cultures and nations, I demonstrate how audiovisual digital platforms such as YouTube can play an important role in shaping our understanding and experiences of the world we live in. Focusing on the performances made by inmates, by Filipinos, by amateurs, I show that we are able not only to historicise the effects of the disenfranchised, but through a close reading of the intertextual, hybridised mediated performance, we may also gain access to and gradually understand that which might otherwise have remained invisible.
