English term

directors\' royalties

English Law/Patents Law: Contract(s) Marketing rights
4.3 In respect of any Collective Representation used by the Partner, the latter shall be solely responsible for the cost of photographers/authors////////directors' royalties//// and photographic/video works in respect of such use.

From a contract between a company and its partner re the marketing rights granted to the partner for its use of the company logo, promotional material, etc.
The contract originates in Singapore and concerns a football club.

Never heard royalties for directors specifically and have not been able to find anything on it.

Any explanation/clarification would be welcomed.

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

Germaine Apr 3, 2017:
Ghyslaine, Je pense qu'on exagère un peu quand on parle d'un "pourcentage des profits". Dans ce contexte, il s'agit plutôt d'un équivalent aux droits d'auteurs: "...ce dernier n'est responsable que du coût des [redevances] [droits] payables aux photographes, auteurs et réalisateurs..." (lesquels sont habituellement régis par une convention collective dans le milieu - par exemple, la SARTEC au Québec ou l'ARP en France - ce que laisse d'ailleurs entendre le "Collective Representation")

Film directors' royalties

Film directors can receive royalties, depending on their contract. This pdf seems to be quite useful.
