Representation

Newly formed production company. We are three writers/producers/directors and have multiple projects across all media platforms. Wondering which would be best to reach out to initially... entertainment lawyer, manager, agent? We are all new to this. Thank you in advance for your feedback.

Great to have you in this community, Zoran! You'll definitely learn just about anything you could need to know between the lounge discussions and webinars. Here's a great article for you to read about how to use Stage 32 to further your career: https://www.stage32.com/blog/The-Stage-32-Festival Best of luck to you! :)

Hire the lawyer first. They are the "hired gun" that will advise you on the legal aspects of contracts with managers, agents, and everybody else.

Sounds like you're at an early stage of learning how to produce. If so, I'd recommend joining FilmSpecific.com for advice on how to put together biz plans, budgets, reach out to talent, and fund your projects. Lawyers, managers, and agents come much later on the learning curve.

Everyone has good advice on a lawyer, but what do they charge?
