Labels-
You have one option and one option only.
You're gonna have to speak to the local office of the distribution company of the label under which the artist records.

Videos are not really income-generating for artists unless they release a DVD full of them, so most labels should not have a problem with you using videos as it is a promotions tool anyway. All you'll be doing is giving them another platform or channel via which to promote.

Look up SAMRO or ASAMI on Google and speak to someone there about the legailties. Otherwise find out which labels your artists are signed with and contact their offices direct.

A heads-up.. if you live in Jozi, Gallo's office is in Bath Avenue, Rosebank. Posted on 18 Sep 2008 08:38
