Filmmaking is a huge, collaborative effort, and you'll be signing many agreements in the production, option, and distribution process. This workshop gives an overview of collaboration, option/purchase, and submission agreements, contracts that define who owns intellectual property, how much the parties get paid, and what happens to your film once as it travels through the development pipeline.

MCLE Available!

For attorneys interested in 1.5 MCLE Credit Hours, select the MCLE pricing option at checkout.
