Making a Scene Presents - The Collapse of Gatekeepers: What Happens When Artists Own Everything The Old Doors Are Still Standing, But the Locks Are Breaking For most of the modern music business, artists were trained to stand in line. Stand in line for the label. Stand in line for the radio programmer. Stand in line for the booking agent. Stand in line for the publicist. Stand in line for the playlist editor. Stand in line for the platform algorithm. Stand in line, wait your turn, be grateful, and maybe somebody with a desk, a budget, and a parking spot near the front of the building would decide your music was worth putting in front of people. That was the deal. The artist made the music. The gatekeeper owned the road. http://www.makingascene.org
Making a Scene Presents - TikTok Is Still Music Discovery, But the Money Is Moving Behind Closed Doors TikTok Is Not Your Fanbase. It Is a Discovery Tollbooth. For the last few years, the music industry has sold artists a simple dream. Post the right clip on TikTok. Catch the algorithm at the right moment. Get a sound moving. Watch the streams roll in. Maybe a label calls. Maybe a playlist adds you. Maybe lightning hits. That dream was not fake. TikTok really did change music discovery. A song could come from a bedroom, a garage, a tiny studio, or a laptop on a kitchen table and suddenly land in the ears of millions. That was powerful. For independent artists, it felt like a crack in the old wall. You no longer had to beg radio programmers, label scouts, or magazine editors to let you into the room. You could kick the door open with a 20-second clip. But here is the part artists need to understand now. TikTok is still music discovery, but the money is moving behind closed doors. http://www.makingascene.org

How much does the average documentary filmmaker's biggest licensing mistake cost?A 30-second Jackson 5 clip can run a documentary $50,000 to $70,000 in licensing fees. Veteran ARC Producer Teddy Cannon has spent a decade in the messy middle between production and legal, and he is here to walk Christian through how to keep your film from becoming the next case study.In Episode 277, host Christian Taylor sits down with Teddy to break down the role most documentary filmmakers overlook until it costs them tens of thousands of dollars: the ARC Producer, the modern hybrid of the Archival Producer and the Clearance Producer.The conversation centers on three frameworks that every documentary filmmaker needs before rolling camera. First, the $70,000 Jackson 5 case study, a real licensing scenario Teddy is working on right now. Second, the Public Location is not Public Domain rule, which catches filmmakers who assume that filming a statue, mural, or artwork in a public space makes it free to use. Third, the Berry Picking method for finding rare archival footage in places the standard stock libraries do not reach. Teddy also gives a first look at ArcWorks, the digital management system he is building to replace the spreadsheet workflows the industry has been stuck with for decades.In this episode, you'll learn:Why a 30-second clip of a famous artist can cost $50,000 to $70,000 to licenseThe difference between an Archival Producer and a Clearance Producer (and why you need both)Why filming a statue in a public park can still require legal clearanceHow the Fair Use doctrine actually works for documentary filmmakersThe Duck Rule for understanding fair use in 7 secondsWhen fair use protects you and when an attorney is required for E&O insuranceThe Berry Picking method for finding rare footage in small, non-digital museumsHow a senior ARC Producer can save thousands through industry relationshipsWhat it costs to hire an ARC Producer ($2,500 to $3,500 per week)A first look at ArcWorks, Teddy's new digital management systemChapters:0:00 The $70,000 Mistake: Why Licensing Matters1:03 What is ARC Producing? (Archival + Clearance)1:51 How Teddy Became an ARC Producer2:29 What are Clearance and Third-Party Assets?3:21 Why Third-Party Assets Aren't Just Free to Use4:07 Public Location is not Public Domain6:45 Case Study: The Jackson 5 and Music Licensing Risks9:21 What is the Fair Use Doctrine?10:39 Fair Use Example: News Footage11:08 Documentary First Brought to You By Virgil Films Entertainment12:13 The Cost and Duties of an ARC Producer13:06 How Big of an Impact can an ARC Producer Make?14:49 Berry Picking: Finding the Right Footage16:34 The Importance of Unique Archival Material19:47 ArcWorks: A New System for Archival Management22:11 How to Reach Teddy Cannon22:48 Docu Deja Vu: Yacht Rock and Kiss the Future24:14 Documentary First Signing OffFREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONSWhat is an ARC Producer in documentary filmmaking?An ARC Producer is the modern hybrid role that combines what used to be two separate jobs: the Archival Producer, who finds and sources third-party footage, photos, and audio, and the Clearance Producer, who secures the legal rights to use those assets. In today's production pipeline, the two roles have melded into one. A senior ARC Producer is hired in pre-production, not at the end, and saves filmmakers thousands of dollars by spotting licensing problems before footage gets locked in the edit.How much does it cost to license music from a famous artist for a documentary?Licensing music from a major artist like the Jackson 5 can cost $50,000 to $70,000 for a single 30-second clip. That figure includes both the synchronization license, which is the right to use the song with picture, and the master use license, which is the right to use the specific recording. Music is among the most expensive third-party assets because it requires clearance from both the publisher and the record label, and major artists' estates are often hyper-protective of their brands.Can you film a statue or work of art in a public place and use it in your documentary?No, not without clearance. Even when a statue, mural, or painting is displayed in a public location, the work itself is owned by the artist or estate and is protected by copyright. Documentary filmmakers who include works of art in their footage, whether intentionally framed or accidentally captured behind an interview subject, must clear those works before delivery. Bringing a clearance professional into the pre-production meeting can prevent the costly post-production scramble of identifying artwork after the fact.What is the Fair Use doctrine for documentary filmmakers?Fair Use is a legal doctrine that allows documentary filmmakers to use copyrighted material without licensing it, provided the use serves a clear documentary purpose. The general rule is that the visual on screen must directly relate to what the talking head or voiceover is discussing. If you are talking about a duck and there is a duck on screen, that use typically falls under fair use. Documentary filmmakers should work with both an ARC Producer who understands fair use boundaries and a fair use attorney whose written letter is required for Errors and Omissions insurance.How much does it cost to hire an ARC Producer for a documentary?An ARC Producer's weekly rate ranges from approximately $2,500 to $3,500. Senior, veteran ARC Producers typically command $3,500 per week, while junior producers are available at lower rates. Veteran ARC Producers are often worth the higher rate because their long-standing relationships with stock houses, archives, and rights holders can save the production thousands of dollars through negotiated rates. Most documentary productions hire ARC Producers in pre-production rather than at the end of post-production to maximize cost savings.DocuView DEJA VU PICKSTeddy Cannon recommends two films:Yacht Rock: A Dockumentary (HBO, 2024). A genre-defining archival documentary where the ARC Producer received a third billing credit, a recognition Teddy says reflects the rising value of the archival role in modern documentary.Kiss the Future (Paramount+, 2024). The U2 documentary about the siege of Sarajevo, built on rare archival footage that, in Teddy's words, literally makes the piece.SPONSORED BY VIRGIL FILMS ENTERTAINMENThttps://www.virgilfilms.comABOUT THE GUESTTeddy Cannon is a veteran media producer, ARC Producer, and tech entrepreneur with over a decade of experience in archival sourcing and rights clearance for documentary and clip-based television. Teddy entered the industry as a segment producer on shows like REAL TV and World's Scariest, then transitioned into clearance work where he has spent the last ten years standing at the link in the production line between filmmakers, vendors, and legal teams.Teddy runs Crux Entertainment, the company where filmmakers hire him for his ARC Producer work. He is also the founder of 3P Sync, the tech company developing ArcWorks, a digital management system designed to replace the spreadsheet-based workflows that have dominated archival and clearance work for decades. ArcWorks will handle third-party asset intake, EDL reconciliation, fair use rating, and document signing in a single centralized platform.This is Teddy's second appearance on Documentary First.

Erin Russell of The Russell Firm joins Jon Hansen, filling in for Lisa Dent, to discuss music copyright law.

Russell explains the procedures that are needed to clear the music for use […]
Bright lights, louder headlines, and a legal backbone strong enough to hold the biggest cultural moment of the year. We take you past the scoreboard and into the systems that make the Super Bowl work: broadcast rights that cross borders, trademarks that protect trust, and licensing strategies that turn 15 minutes of halftime into global memory. Along the way, we unpack the real moves behind “The Big Game,” from satellite transmissions and domain seizures to creative constraints that spark better ads, cleaner stages, and fewer courtrooms.We start with the money plays—why transmissions count as public performances and how that doctrine funds the spectacle you watch on Sunday. Then we head online, where domain names masquerade as jerseys and UDRP panels yank them back before kickoff. The anti-piracy blitz gets real with Operation In Our Sites, a coordinated push that seizes illegal streaming hubs and undercuts counterfeit merch so legitimate broadcasts and brands can win the night.Advertising sits on a razor's edge. We explore the Tom Waits soundalike ruling to show how a voice can be identity, not a shortcut, and revisit the Beastie Boys' stance to prove “not an ad ad” is still advertising when it moves product. Music is protected IP even when your campaign hides outside the 30-second slot, and endorsement risk turns on what viewers feel, not what disclaimers claim. That nuance becomes a blueprint for modern marketers: leverage cultural moments without impersonating people or implying NFL sponsorship.Ambush marketing gets a fair shake, too. Courts have long allowed expressive references to major events while drawing a hard line at official-looking promotion. We share practical examples—billboards near stadiums, social posts that capture live moments, playful language aimed at parties and community—that ride the wave without borrowing league equity. And we end on the most surprising truth: halftime stays lawsuit-free not by luck, but by ruthless planning. Every song, visual, and contract is cleared early so art can soar at speed.If you care about creativity, brand safety, or the craft of putting culture on a clock, this conversation maps the terrain.

Most founders are building a business their body can't carry. Certified Health Nut Troy Casey joins me to talk about becoming hard to kill so your life and work don't collapse on you. In this episode, I sit down with Troy Casey, the Certified Health Nut, to talk about health in a way most founders and executives never hear it. We get into his "nine pillars" of health, why your body and your word are the only two things you really own, and how to build a life that's hard to kill so your business and your family aren't gambling on a burnt-out version of you. Troy shares: How he went from Versace model to medicine hunter in the Amazon and the birth of Certified Health Nut The gym routine he uses for mental health and longevity instead of ego lifting Why he focuses on sleep, sunlight, movement and real food before gadgets and gimmicks What "health and your word" actually mean for integrity, posture and parenting How meditation, nature and community changed the way he leads and raises his kids Disclaimer: Troy shares his personal experiences and opinions about health, training, and different practices. Nothing in this episode is medical advice. Always talk to your doctor or a qualified professional before making big changes to your health routine. __ Guest: Troy Casey Certified Health Nut on all platforms Book: Ripped At 50: A Journey To Self Love __ ► Free resource: 90 Day ROI Playbook — Multiply Your Profits with the Skills No One Trains https://bitnw.academy/roiplaybook Music Licensing by Audiio License #: 0981896904 #health #longevity #leadership
Most founders treat buying a business like a shortcut. In reality, your first acquisition is old-school marriage. It cannot end in divorce. Seth Deutsch joins me to unpack how to know if you should acquire at all, how to avoid blowing your first deal, and how to build an anti-fragile business that investors actually want. Most founders think they have a growth problem. In reality, a lot of them have an acquisition problem waiting to happen. In this episode I sit down with Seth Deutsch, deal architect, investor, and operator who has led or advised on more than 70 acquisitions, helped build nine private-equity-backed platforms, and worked on over 2 billion dollars of enterprise growth. We talk about buy vs build, why acquisitions are like merging families, and the mindset you need before you go anywhere near your first deal. Seth breaks down culture, vision, peer-group cashless mergers, and what it means to make a business anti-fragile from an investor's point of view. We get real about customer concentration, deal structure, earnouts, and why buying a company to save a struggling one is like adding fuel to a house that is already on fire. He also opens up about complex PTSD and severe childhood abuse, how he hid it for years while building a high-performance career, and why he now speaks openly so other founders know it was not their fault and it does not have to define them. If you are thinking about buying a business, selling your own, or just want to understand how investors really see your company, this conversation will give you a real-world lens most people never share. __ ► Free resource: 90 Day ROI Playbook — Multiply Your Profits with the Skills No One Trains https://bitnw.academy/roiplaybook __ Guest: Seth Deutsch Topic(s): Mergers and Acquisitions, private equity, owner operator, small business, investors, leadership, enterprise growth, cashless merger https://www.samsonpartnersgroup.com/ Music Licensing by Audiio License #: 0981896904 #cashlessmerger #business #privateequity
Welcome to the first in a new series of interviews that are focused solely on music supervisors. These are the people who are directly in the path of any of us focused on a career in sync licensing.So I think it's crucial that we find out how they work, what they look for, where they look first, where they look second….And get ready for them all to have slightly (or wildly) different views on things like AI, exclusivity, perpetuity, and the way they go about their job of finding music.Today I talk to Jody Friedman who has secured over 10,000 placements, licensing music to media, including theme songs, blockbuster movie trailers, globally recognized brands, and more.#musiclicensing #synclicensing #musicsupervisorWORK WITH ME:Work directly with composer and producer Eric Copeland to develop albums of music for pitching to sync licensing for TV, Film, Ads, and Gaming.

Most owners in the trades do not have a revenue problem. They have a profit problem. Ben Hansen, the Profit Doctor, joins me to break down why you are working harder than ever with nothing to show for it and how to fix it. In this episode, I sit down with Ben Hansen, the Profit Doctor, to dig into why so many blue collar entrepreneurs are incredible operators and terrible CFOs for their own company. We talk about the gap between turning wrenches and understanding your numbers, why most bookkeepers and CPAs are not setting you up to win, and what to do if your revenue is climbing but your profit is stuck. Ben walks through his 4-part profit prescription, the difference between profit, revenue, and cash, how to think about pricing in the trades, and why you should stop doing the jobs that always lose you money. We also get into profititis, the 50–20 rule, and how cutting the worst 20 percent of your customers and work can be the fastest way to double what you keep. __ ► Free resource: 90 Day ROI Playbook — Multiply Your Profits with the Skills No One Trains https://bitnw.academy/roiplaybook __ Guest: Ben Hansen, Profit Doctor Topic(s): Scale lean, boost margins, and build a business that actually gives you freedom, not just bigger numbers. https://profitdoctor.com/ Music Licensing by Audiio License #: 0981896904 #profit #profitability #smallbusiness

On this episode of Bringin' it Backwards, Sean Ulbs of The Eiffels sits down with Michael Fitzpatrick—better known as Fitz, frontman of the chart-topping band Fitz and the Tantrums. Fitz gets real about his long and winding road through the music industry, from years of rejection and heartbreak to risking it all—both emotionally and financially—on one more shot at his dream. He shares how a vintage organ and a single inspired rehearsal launched the band that would eventually bring us hits like “HandClap,” “The Walker,” and “Out of My League.” Fitz opens up about the creative process behind their latest album Man on the Moon, what it's like performing new songs for fans after years of making music, and why licensing and syncs were crucial for the band's rise in a changing industry. The conversation takes a candid turn into the realities of breaking through later in life, the pressures of social media on aspiring artists, and how to build a dedicated fanbase that will stick around long after the viral moment fades. There are stories about tough gigs, major risks, and a Tom Petty studio mishap you don't want to miss. Whether you're a longtime fan, an up-and-coming musician, or just need a dose of inspiration, this is a conversation packed with advice and powerful reminders about passion, perseverance, and making your own path. Stick around for Fitz's heartfelt advice to aspiring artists, and make sure to check out the full episode on your favorite podcast platform.

Despite only listening to the radio on her phone out the back of her shop, the music licensing organisation told her to buy a licence or turn the music off.

The episode elucidates the stark reality that music creators receive a mere 2.99% of the revenue generated from streaming platforms, such as Spotify, in Canada, a figure that significantly undermines their financial viability. This percentage, dictated by the Copyright Board of Canada, is distributed by SOCAN among songwriters, composers, and producers, further exacerbating the challenges faced by artists reliant on these meager payouts. The discussion highlights the systemic issues within the music industry, particularly during the COVID-19 pandemic, which has intensified the financial struggles of creators. We delve into the complexities of music licensing and the calculations that determine royalties, revealing that the average payout per stream is approximately 0.0084, an amount that barely qualifies as compensation. This conversation serves as a crucial reminder of the importance of transparency and advocacy for fair compensation in the ever-evolving landscape of music distribution.Takeaways: The current license fee paid by music services platforms in Canada is set at 2.99%. SOCAN distributes the 2.99% license fee among songwriters, composers, and producers on Spotify. The Copyright Board of Canada plays a significant role in determining the set rates for royalties. Artists receive approximately 0.0084 per spin on Spotify, which is significantly less than one cent. The disparity in revenue between creators and platforms like Spotify is a matter of grave concern. To maximize exposure, artists should disseminate their music across all available platforms simultaneously. Companies mentioned in this episode: SOCAN Spotify CBC Radio Nielsen

In this Habits and Hustle episode, I am joined by Cathy Heller as she shares her incredible journey from struggling artist to successful entrepreneur and author. Her story is a testament to the power of living in possibility rather than probability. We dive into her new book Abundant Ever After and discuss the importance of taking action, being resourceful, and embracing an optimistic mindset to achieve one's goals. We also discuss the stigma around women and wealth, encouraging listeners to unapologetically declare their desire for financial abundance while using it to make a positive impact. Cathy Heller is a renowned teacher, podcaster and author. She hosts one of the top spiritual podcasts, Abundant Ever After, which has been downloaded more than 45 million times.
