New streamlined process for your Fee Schedule questions

 
 
 

We receive many requests for assistance regarding the CARFAC-RAAV Minimum Recommended Fee Schedule every month. In order to streamline this process, we have developed a Fee Schedule Intake Form, which allows space for the information we need to answer your questions. We have made this form as simple to use as possible, while still allowing us to gather the information we need to assist you properly.

 

 
 

We receive many requests for assistance regarding projects that do not fit into the categories laid out in the CARFAC-RAAV Minimum Recommended Fee Schedule guidelines. It takes considerable time and effort to gather preliminary information, and then conduct the research needed to address these requests. While we welcome the opportunity to assist artists and presenters in determining appropriate copyright royalties and professional fees for their projects, the complex nature of these requests means that extensive staff time is required for each inquiry. 

To help with this process, we have developed this Fee Schedule Consultation Request Form. It allows those seeking assistance with unique projects to provide the information we need to help our community establish payment terms for new types of presentations, reproductions, or labour provided by artists for which fee guidelines don’t currently exist.

If the CARFAC-RAAV Minimum Recommended Fee Schedule does not currently offer guidance specific to your project, and you’re looking for advice, you may request a consultation meeting.

Like all information communicated to CARFAC regarding the remuneration of artists for their work, the information provided to us through this Consultation Request Form will be treated as confidential. 

Through the Consultation process, we will determine your needs and discuss options to establish fair rates of pay for artists for your project. 

This service is:

  • free for CARFAC and RAAV members (individuals and institutions)

  • $50 for artists who are not members

  • $250 for arts organizations with budgets under $500K

  • $500 for corporations, governments, and arts organizations with budgets over $500K

If you would like to book a meeting, please fill in the Fee Schedule Consultation Request Form, and we will get back to you as quickly as possible.
