This presentation will focus on television, theatrical and new media residuals; a presentation on commercials residuals will be scheduled for a later date. 

This conversation may be a first for young performers, or a refresher for our more seasoned members. We’ll cover what residuals are, how compensation is paid to performers for use of a theatrical motion picture or television program beyond the use covered by initial compensation, when residuals are paid, how residuals are calculated, how to track them and much more.

Livestreaming for recording artists — all performers really — has soared during quarantine, and in some ways, may be here to stay! It’s not just a substitute for in-person shows, but it can be an effective way to connect with fans and grow your social communities. 

Special Guest: Dan Navarro, SAG-AFTRA Vice President, Recording Artists/Singers
