Management & Consulting

With the coming of age of the internet, the entertainment business has been through a digital revolution and has brought about a number of changes and innovative changes that has completely revolutionized the way in which business is now being conducted.  Now, more than ever, it’s absolutely a necessity to have an informed team around you that has your best interests at heart to navigate through  this revolution.  No longer can an artist  afford to hire their friends or others who lack the knowledge and skills and unfortunately do not have the knowledge to effectively lead and guide the careers of an artist.  With success, ownership issues and millions and millions of dollars are at stake.   Every contract which is entered into, valuable rights are either protected or given away.  Every decision will have a long term effect on an artist’s career and whether they will be financially secure when they reach the sunset of their careers.  Every career is a “Moment in Time”.  The question is whether the person or entity will receive the correct advice and make the right decisions at the right time..  The entertainment  business is just that, a very complicated business that involve more than just creativity  .

Areas of Expertise


Music

The world of music is ever growing and evolving, and we’re not just talking about sound trends. With the consistent introduction of varying revenue streams and distribution channels, the opportunity for profit grows, but so does the complexity. We take pride in clearly explaining and navigating the often foggy landscape of the entertainment business and its relationship especially to the music and tech industry. In addition to management and consulting, if needed, we assist our clients draft and negotiate contracts relating to recording, publishing, licensing and distribution, sponsorship and merchandising.


TELEVISION & film

The way people consume entertainment is constantly in flux, so the laws must adapt quickly. Our office strives to anticipate these changes so you can focus more on creating a performance of a lifetime. We assist in the drafting and negotiating development, production, financing, and sales & distribution agreements. We assemble teams to tailor each contract according to a project’s scope, size, and budget, we assist in securing the appropriate creative rights for all talents involved.


DIGITAL MEDIA & TECHNOLOGY

The internet, software, and technology are so pervasive that we can’t remember having ever lived without them. They make our lives simpler, but behind the curtain are fluctuating challenges in protection and monetization; challenges that our firm stays two steps ahead of. We’ve helped engineers, inventors, gaming startups, and entrepreneurs develop, license, sell, and maintain ownership over their creations. We are also available to advise entertainment and investment companies looking for their unicorn.
