Every production — film, television, music, or digital — rests on a framework of agreements that determine who invests, who controls, and who profits. Our production and financing practice builds that framework for producers, financiers, studios, and independent creators.
On the financing side, we structure and document equity investments, gap and bridge financing, presale and negative pickup arrangements, tax incentive and rebate strategies, and co-financing among multiple parties. On the production side, we handle production services agreements, co-production deals, line producer and crew agreements, location agreements, completion guaranty requirements, and collection account management arrangements that ensure revenues flow to the right parties in the right order.
Financing documents are where projects succeed or fail long before cameras roll. Recoupment order, ownership of copyright, creative control, and security interests must all be negotiated with precision and with an understanding of how distributors, bond companies, and guilds will scrutinize the paperwork. We bring that fluency to every deal, whether you are raising money for your first independent feature or structuring a multi-project slate.
