Description
Ask An Entertainment Lawyer: FLLCs, Releases, and more! In this new semi-monthly series we let our audience ask any production related legal questions their hearts desire to Entertainment Lawyer & Filmmaker Chris Edgar.  This week, some topics covered:  -When do you need to form an LLC for your film and how long do you need to keep it? -AI – where are we currently at with legal clearances? -What do you need to do to protect yourself for your documentary? -If you have multiple producers on a film should you have multiple lawyers to protect each? Or is one enough?
