When agencies create productions for clients using commercial,
commissioned or production music, they may choose to
highlight their work by hosting these examples or a showreel of
their work on a website.
The licensing of production music (e.g. VPD, ATA) only covers
the reproduction of the musical works for the initial purpose
e.g. to make an advertisement. It does not cover the right to
communicate the work to the public.
The Online Showreels Licence is an APRA AMCOS agreement
developed for production companies who are eager to showcase
online examples of their work (or compilations of their work),
without having to remove the original music.
The APRA AMCOS Showreels Licence has three pricing levels:
1.
$220 (production music only) per annum (or part thereof)
2.
$330 (commissioned & production music) per annum (or
part thereof)
3.
$550 (commercial, commissioned & production music) per
annum (or part thereof)

When agencies create productions for
clients using commercial, commissioned
or production music, they may choose
to highlight their work by hosting these
examples or a showreel of their work on a
website.
When a showreel is streamed from an
agency’s website - as opposed to being
broadcast on network TV - the responsibility
of `streaming’ i.e. the communication right,
falls on the content provider - in this case the
agency.
The licensing of Production Music (e.g. VPD,
ATA) only covers the reproduction of the
musical works for the initial purpose e.g. to
make an advertisement. It does not cover the
right to communicate the work to the public.
The Online Showreels Licence is an APRA
AMCOS agreement developed from
production companies who were eager to
showcase online examples of their work (or
compilations of their work), without having to
remove the original music.
The APRA AMCOS Showreels Licence has three
pricing levels:
1. $220 (production music only) per annum
(or part thereof)
2. $330 (commissioned & production
music) per annum (or part thereof)
3. $550 (commercial, commissioned &
production music) per annum (or part
thereof)
The communication of this music is protected
under the Australian Copyright Act (1968).
Copyright protection enables composers to
earn a living from their music and it does this
by giving them the right to control and to be
paid for certain uses of their musical works,
including online.
