This course covers every angle of beat licensing. From how beats are created, marketed, and sold, to a detailed look into current online beat license agreements and what you need to watch out for with these contracts.
The buying and selling of beats is big business, but most beat makers, buyers, licensees, and sellers have no idea what’s in the fine print of the beat deals they sign. Except that fine print is crucially important!
This course examines the pros and cons of online beat marketplaces, with a special emphasis on their license agreements and the significant legal issues they represent. Also included is a special chapter on building, maintaining, and marketing your own beat store, and a high quality Creative Intell beat license agreement you can download and use for your own purposes.
