Legal and business affairs can appear quite daunting, especially in the earlier stages of a career in film and TV. This programme has been designed to address this, and will cover the legal framework that is required for a film or TV series. The course starts with the early stage development, to financing, to distribution and finally reaching your audience.
It will also cover key areas of the legal knowledge needed in order to create confidence in the individual when discussing and preparing contracts.
