DESCRIPTION:
Protecting Artist IP in Contracts
with Hope Mohr
Part of taking yourself seriously as a creative is having strong contracts that protect your intellectual property. This training will cover the types of IP, different contract contexts where IP is an issue (with a special focus on collaboration contracts and jointly held IP), the work for hire doctrine (how worker classification relates to IP), fiscal sponsorship, and tips for protecting your IP from being used for AI training.
