Cue Sheets
​
In order for PRO's to distribute royalties to you for performances of your music in television and film, they must receive a cue sheet.

A cue sheet is a schedule of the music contained in a film or television program and is the essential document for PRO's to distribute royalties for musical performances in audio-visual media. It is typically prepared by the production company and delivered to your PRO by default, and lists the following pieces of information:
​
  • The title of the music performed
  • The way in which the music was performed (e.g., visual instrumental, vocal, background instrumental or vocal)
  • The duration of the performance
  • The entitled party information (i.e. the composers and publishers) and their respective ownership shares
To get a better idea of how cue sheets work and the information they contain, check out the following resources:
