All artists and musicians are covered by the agreements and production companies are obliged to follow the new standards of the agreements and also refer to a framework for a good working environment.

Clear agreements and organised conditions

The artists' spokesperson Sara Indrio is very pleased that there are now agreements with the two major public service media. "It has long been a wish to have an agreement with TV2 that corresponds to the agreement that the Danish Artist Association has with DR:

"It's very satisfying that artists and musicians now have clear and transparent terms when it comes to music in TV2 programmes. It took some time to get all the details in place, and we have had good and constructive negotiations over several months. We are happy to have reached an agreement that covers everyone," says Sara Indrio

The two new agreements cover both payment for appearances in TV programmes and the rights to subsequently exploit the content.

The agreements provide orderly conditions for artists and musicians in the TV sector. One agreement covers productions for TV2, the other sets the terms for the two daily programmes Go' morgen Danmark and Go' aften Live, which Nordisk Film produces.
