Common use of Electronic Press Kits Clause in Contracts

Electronic Press Kits. Musicians engaged under this Agreement will permit Orchestra of the Swan to record sections of rehearsal and performance in sound and vision or in sound only for no additional fee in order to produce an EPK. The Musician will be informed by Orchestra of the Swan at the earliest opportunity of the intention to produce an EPK recording. Each EPK will have a maximum duration in aggregate of 20 minutes of orchestral material in any format to be used for promotional or marketing purposes only. Audio/visual recordings used in the EPK may include a musical piece in its entirety only where the recording is watermarked and is of a maximum duration of 20 minutes. Watermarked recordings in excess of 20 minutes duration will attract media points in accordance with clause 1 of Appendix 1. Where possible, all EPK recordings will be watermarked throughout their duration to deter unauthorised use. Sound recordings and audio/visual recordings that are not watermarked must not include any musical piece in its entirety, however short. EPK recordings may be used by Orchestra of the Swan for its own publicity material including its own website, artist profiles, arts and culture themed programming where the orchestra is featured and may include free and non-commercial presentation by Orchestra of the Swan to promote ticket sales for the concert(s) for which the Musician has been engaged under this Agreement. EPK recordings may also be used by third parties such as tourist boards and government agencies to promote the venue or city in which OOTS performs. EPK recordings shall not be used for the evaluation of the performance of any musician.
