Entertainment Labor Law
Leading Role
Those who work in the entertainment, videogame and music businesses understand that their industries are highly labor-intensive, particularly the creation of audiovisual entertainment product such as motion pictures, television, new media, videogames, live theatrical presentations and music. That creative or technical labor is frequently unionized, with complex collective bargaining agreements that can impact production and encumber the final product.
The lawyers in Barnes & Thornburg's entertainment labor practice provide guidance to producers, investors and financiers who are involved with the creation of entertainment product, and to those who distribute and exploit that product in traditional markets and new media.
