The Music Synchronization License is essential for any production that requires the integration of copyrighted music with visual media content in Ireland. This document is used when a producer needs to legally obtain rights to use music in films, television shows, advertisements, video games, or other audiovisual productions. The agreement, governed by Irish law and EU regulations, specifies crucial elements including the scope of permitted use, territorial limitations, duration of rights, and compensation structure. It ensures compliance with the Copyright and Related Rights Act 2000 and related legislation while protecting the interests of both music rights holders and content producers. The license typically includes detailed technical specifications, usage restrictions, and credit requirements, making it a fundamental tool for legal music usage in media production.
