One clause. Work for hire. A lot of people get offered it. Artists, producers, writers, photographers, designers, freelancers. Sign it and the thing you made was never yours. I am going to put it on the screen, tell you what I have watched it do, and give you what to say back before you sign. Then I take your questions.

What happens in the 45 minutes
The story from the room. Who signed it, what they thought it meant, and what it actually cost them.
The clause on the screen. Word for word, and what each line really takes from you.
The line that gets you out. What to say back before you put your name on it.
Your questions, face to face. Unmute and ask me directly.
Who is running it
I am Roget Romain. Twenty years in the music business, gold and platinum plaques on the wall. I have sat across the table when these deals were made. This is not what I read about. It is what I watched happen.
