Film, Television, Theater & Digital Media
One thing in life that is certain is change. Another certainty is that people will always seek to be entertained. We are grateful to be a part of an industry that has stood the test of time and that provides an outlet to the world during good times and bad, whether feast or famine. The convergence of entertainment and technology has disrupted the television and film industries as much as it has advanced them. The result is that there are new devices, monetization methods, platforms, and distribution channels- all of which have changed how content is created and the business models that support it.
The Law Office of Heather Beverly P.C.’s film and television clients have filled many seats at a vast array of tables and are representative of the diaspora of players in the film and television space. They range from veteran executives to seasoned production companies and first-time writers, emerging digital and media companies, streaming platforms, producers, celebrity reality show stars and investors. Content creators, actors, directors, and social media influencers and more have trusted our team’s knowledge and experience to get them across the finish line.
We service a wide variety of needs across the film and television industries. For our film clients, whether shorts, documentaries, or feature films, we assist with entity formations, option and life rights acquisitions, development and production legal, financing and distribution matters, and licensing and protection. We also provide a myriad of services for our television and digital media clientele including production company formation, foundational agreements, development and collaboration deals, rights, licensing and distribution matters.
