Question by : As Music Supervisor for a film about a pop group, and having written all of their songs, what is a fair shake?
There is a Spinal Tap like film. A documentary about a ficticious Pop group. I wrote all of the songs for this “group” gratis, but retain all my publishing. Going into the project, it was simply for the film. The group performs at least 4 songs in the film, and 2-3 others are played. Dueto the quality of the fake songs, there is now a record/soundtrack deal in place for the fake groups’ music to coincide with the film. The film company and investor want to split the record profits with me equally (4 ways total), but I don’t have any points on the film. What is fair? Since I wasn’t paid for the work, shouldn’t I get a bigger cut of the record revenue than an equal share? How much of a bigger cut? Or instead of a bigger cut of the record revenue, shouldn’t I get a cut of the film? How much of a cut? Keep in mind the songs I wrote are vital to the film, and are not my songs, but songs I wrote specifically for the films characters.
