Digital Self-Promotion Registry
Welcome to the Digital Self-Promotion Registry!
When you post self-promotional material on the internet without benefit of a contract, it can be stolen, inserted into other productions or misused without your permission. Others can make money from your performance and not pay you..
Under the law, content/copyright owners have rights, but they must have evidence of their claim.
Registering your self-promotional material with ACTRA will help to protect your rights by providing you with a dated registry number as evidence to your claim of authorship/ownership. And you will be backed up by the strength of your union.
The Digital Self-Promotion Registry allows ACTRA members to promote their skills on the internet while being protected by and remaining in good standing with their union.
We held a strike to defend our jurisdiction in digital media, and won the right to be paid for the use of our performances – regardless of the medium on which they are broadcast. To maintain our rights in the digital world we must, as ACTRA members, ensure that our work, even when self-produced, is properly contracted. This includes self-promotional content broadcast on the internet.
Don’t lose control and ownership of your work. Build your career in a way that keeps you protected. Use the links below to find out more about the DSP Registry and register your self-promotional material with ACTRA today.
