When The Pocket Lawyer for Filmmakers first hit the shelves four years ago, Backstage called it: “an excellent, potentially career-saving resource.” The book quickly became a best-seller in the industry, finding a favored place on the bookshelves of both indie filmmakers and studio executives.
The Pocket Lawyer for Filmmakers was designed to help producers reduce legal costs by providing the vital information needed to make informed decisions on the legal aspects of film, video, and TV productions. Written by a TV-producer-turned-entertainment-lawyer, this no-nonsense reference provides fast answers in plain English: no law degree required!
With the New Year comes the much anticipated new edition of The Pocket Lawyer for Filmmakers! This second edition features sections on production services agreements, film tax credits, DIY distribution, product placement, and more!
Come hear author/attorney Thomas A. Crowell, Esq. discuss the new edition and learn tips and tricks on how to avoid some of the more dangerous legal problems that regularly destroy indie films.
