Existing law regulates certain contracts for artistic employment between an unemancipated minor and third parties, including employment as an actor, dancer, musician, comedian, singer, stuntperson, voice-over artist, or other performer or entertainer, or sports participant. Existing law provides for the establishment of a Coogan Trust Account, as specified, for the purpose of preserving for the benefit of the minor 15% of the minors gross earnings or a greater percentage, if requested by the minors parent or guardian.

This bill would specifically include a content creator in these provisions and would define content creator as an individual who creates, posts, shares, or otherwise interacts with digital content on an online platform and engages in a direct contractual relationship with third parties, as specified.
