We advise productions and authors from the very beginning of material development and the exploitation of film and television formats, treatments, show concepts, screenplays or the adaptation of existing works. This includes the legal basics of the entire format protection as well as questions about film promotion, film financing or film funds. We help you with filming permits as well as with rights clearance. We draft or negotiate co-production, service production and other license agreements with broadcasters or other clients for you. We also provide legal assistance with online exploitation as well as traditional distribution.
We support acting agencies or managements in reviewing, negotiating and concluding contracts for their artists. We also draft your agency contracts taking into account exclusive marketing opportunities, especially with regard to the regulations of the Employment Agency Ordinance.
