Maybe you've stumbled across an amazing true story that hasn’t been told on the big screen before. You can hardly wait to roll up your sleeves and breathe new life into the tale. It's dynamic, cinematic, and you feel called to tell this story to the best of your ability. There’s just one problem: you don’t have the life rights of the real people featured.
But what even are life rights? How do you go about getting them? Are they really that important? We are thrilled to have Alexa Whiteside break it all down for writers with a few screenplays under their belt who are ready to learn about the technical side of acquiring life rights.
This 67-Minute Webinar Covers:
- The ins and outs of life rights explained
- How do you acquire someone's life rights?
- How to find out what figures are in the public domain
A Magna Cum Laude graduate of Southwestern Law School in Los Angeles, Alexa Whiteside is currently an associate at Ramo Law PC where she provides comprehensive production, distribution and delivery legal services to producers and filmmakers in the creation of their film, television and digital content.
