About this - “Most notably, if a finished film is distributed on a streaming service, the producers must pay the cast 2 percent of the project’s revenue as calculated by third-party data firm Parrot Analytics.”

Serious question - how can an independent producer pay 2% of streaming revenue when they don’t receive any additional revenue themselves based on performance? Are producers (who are truly the last to get paid) supposed to pay out of pocket? Doesn’t this only make sense if the “producers” are also the platform?
