520 |a "Revised and updated to reflect the latest case law, this 6th edition of The Biz incorporates much new material, including new chapters on securities laws, artificial intelligence (including copyright and guild concerns), defamation, and union strikes, and new sections on non-fungible tokens, virtual reality content, accounting riders, fair use, the transformative defense to the right of publicity, an expressive work's use of a trademark, and tax audits. Today's film industry is a legal and financial obstacle course that independent filmmakers must learn to master. The most comprehensive guide to negotiating that obstacle course is The Biz, a highly accessible overview of the industry's important business, legal, and financial aspects. Filled with industry-savvy advice, it clearly explains raising financing, business structuring, securities laws, budgeting essentials, loans, completion guarantees, distribution deals, dealing with the guilds, screen credits and talent demands, video on demand, artificial intelligence, virtual reality, copyright law, publicity law, trademark law, litigation problems, film-industry accounting practices and contingent payments, calculating net profits, bankruptcy, taxation of film companies, film-industry business jargon, and much more, including many useful sample forms and agreements"--  |c Provided by publisher.
