Essential Producer Agreement Deal Points
Introduction by Tess Taylor
Deal Points by Dina LaPolt, Esq.

May 2, 2008

At last, here is an excellent check list to use in your next producer deal negotiation.  No matter at what level your career may be, it's incumbent upon you to be informed, to take the time to educate yourself and surround yourself with the highest caliber people.  A producer (or any professional) who hires an attorney must give clear direction even if he doesn't get directly involved in the negotiation.  At a recent NARIP program, we brought in top music biz attorneys Dina LaPolt and Zach Katz (who is also an artist manager) to walk us through the most critical points of a producer agreement.  And here they are, courtesy of Dina LaPolt.

How To Approach Music Supervisors
By Tess Taylor
April 9, 2008

Last week I received an email from a NARIP member who is preparing to send his client’s music to music supervisors nationwide. He wanted to know “best practices” in pitching them, what they like to see, how they prefer to receive music (CD or e-mail attachments, for example), how many cuts they like to get, and what kinds of background material they like to get about the artist (reviews, clippings, photos, etc.).

I gave him a detailed answer, which he so appreciated that I thought I'd share it in case others may benefit from it as well.
