Payments

Distribution Rules

If the monies we receive are not pre-allocated to our members by the payee collecting society, 

BECS will use the most appropriate in-house distribution rule taking into account rules applicable in different territories to allocate monies to respective rightsholders.

We consider several factors when determining how money should be shared between programmes and films, and subsequently performers.  To determine who is owed what payment within a production, we analyse and grade cast lists according to credits and importance of role to the storyline.  

The following are rules and policies currently applicable on distributable income:

Performers & creators have the right to decide whether or not their work is used by #AI companies & to be paid fairly if it is. Consultation responses are in.

The govt. must listen to our world leading creative industries & be at the forefront of fair AI regulation. #MakeItFair

Thank you @SpotlightUK for the excellent article explaining why it is so important for performers to be a member of BECS -
