VJ in TV

[clad]

Hi,

i'm VJ and producer of TV program called Partymix, which is in our local czech music television. It's one hour of music mixed by DJ a with images from VJs. It's every week and I'm little bit out of good mixes. I'm trying to find some new people which will be interested to send me their mix on miniDV. But all videos have to be autor-rights clean, and TV need complete tracklist of music played by DJ (author, song, label) ...
so, mix will be shown in tv, but it's not all. we are starting tv.vj.cz internet television made from that mixes.
if you are interested, contact me here or on mail clad@vj.cz

That sounds great Clad,

just a few questions.

*Are you only looking for full audio visual sets?

*Do you as the producer also source dj mixes that need to be visualised by veejay's?

*What's the deal on payment or royalties?

*Are you only looking for full audio visual sets?

yes...

*Do you as the producer also source dj mixes that need to be visualised by veejay's?

no, it's not so usual that DJ need visual part of his mix. but sometimes ....

*What's the deal on payment or royalties?

something around zero. for that TV is cheaper to play music videos (which is free for them) than producing their own shows... but they are paying all author rights (if they have tracklist)

hi clad,

can i send you a dvd with a short showreel in advance? actually i can provide a miniDV tape only in three or four weeks when i meet my favourite dj again. we do drum and bass stuff, sampled by himself so all rights belong to him and all the video footage originates from me, too.

this shouldn't be filed under "collaborative work" but "free advertising" or "freebie tv"

yes, you're right... but we are living in different economical scales. do you know that we are earning here about 5-10 times less than you in UK? and do you know, that when VJing is only hobby you can get better results. ... I see it everywhere...
my colaborative idea is that if in every country is some music tv, they can have some program about VJing and then can play something like demos of VJ from different countries (not UK only ;) ... so lots of people will see it (more then on party) and some will decide to invite VJ there... I want to see your work, and I want to invite you to prague, if people will want you... but we really can't make any good money for that. i don't know where to get them...

bye clad

Its another one of those personal preference requests, if people want to give content for free so be it, although personaly I never give away content free to commercial companies, this isn't mtv, we aren't getting paid thousands to make these music videos in the first place, as a video director would if they were working commercially with dj's or artists. MTV doesn't have to pay for them as the record companies already did. Sorry royalty free PAL AV is worth more than nothing no matter which economy your in, its just filling up the airwaves without contributing to the work thats involved. Especially without copyright issues, your asking people to never recoup their investment have it broadcast, potentially giving another load of samplers free access to record the media.

I'm gonna start a pay the creators a fair wage campaign
