We act for both content providers and artists in the film and TV industry. We advise content providers on the protection and exploitation of their intellectual property, including the acquisition of rights, the ownership of IP in production agreements and the licensing of IP in merchandising agreements.
We also advise on the agreements required during the film and TV production process, including option agreements, production and co-production agreements, and cast and crew agreements. Our approach to drafting and negotiating agreements is to provide practical and commercial advice.
Examples of the types of issues that we advise on include:
- copyright and format protection and exploitation
- option and acquisition of rights agreements
- production and co-production agreements
- release forms and location agreements
- cast and crew agreements
- merchandising agreements
- branding advice
- advertising clearance on all media
