Production Contracts Deep Dive

Join us for an introductory look into the main clauses and considerations for location, contributor, talent, crew and standard paid development agreements.

This online Pact event with Mint & Co will provide an introductory look into the main clauses and considerations for location, contributor, talent, crew and standard paid development agreements.

The seminar will cover: 

  1. Development Agreements: when are they used? What are their terms, their applications and their negotiables?
  2. Release forms:
    • Location releases: key clauses and when to use an access agreement instead
    • Material releases: key clauses and understanding an exclusive/non-exclusive licence vs an assignment
    • Contributor releases: key clauses and additional considerations when the contributor is a minor
  3. Presenter Agreement: key clauses and looking specifically at exclusivity and further series options.
  4. Ensuring your releases/contracts are suitable when working with brands
  5. Creative Diversity Network & project Diamond, producer responsibilities
  6. Case Study: a presenter agreement for an entertainment programme - requested agent changes and push-backs.

There will also be time for Q&A at the end.
