I provide production and distribution legal services to independent film and television producers in Texas. My role includes advising producers on applicable film incentives programs and providing guidance on dealing with unions such as Screen Actors Guild-American Federation of Television and Radio Artists (SAG-AFTRA), the Directors Guild (DGA), and/or the Writers Guild (WGA). During production, I'm available to draft and negotiate the numerous production contracts and releases that are required of filmmakers. Without carefully crafted written production agreements in place, producers may not be able to secure distribution for their film. Worse, producers may have distribution of your film blocked or yanked by an angry [cast/crew member, musician, publisher, etc.] if they do not have language in their film contracts limiting remedies to monetary damages. In post-production, I often review the rough cut for legal issues, help with errors & omissions insurance applications, and review/negotiate distribution proposals.
