Episode Details

As minors take center stage in the monetized world of social media, California has enacted new legal protections to safeguard their earnings and rights. This program examines the Child Content Creator Rights Act and recent updates to the Coogan Law—both of which mandate that a portion of income derived from a child’s name, image, or likeness be set aside in trust. Attendees will gain insight into the evolving legal framework surrounding minors in digital media, including issues of consent, privacy, labor protections, and the right of publicity as traditional entertainment law intersects with the modern influencer economy.
