"Steve Monas is one of the top lawyers in the independent film distribution business, and he has brought his thirty-plus years of experience to bear in his chapter on Motion Picture distribution. Clear and concise, practical and interesting, filled with practical tips derived from actual sample agreements, this chapter will be of use to practitioners interested in developing expertise in these types of transactions, and even experienced attorneys will find it informative. It is so well-written that I plan to assign it to my motion picture seminar students, as soon as available."

Jay Dougherty
Professor of Law & Director, Entertainment/Media Law Institute & Concentration Program Loyola Law School (Los Angeles)

“Ken Basin has given us a great primer in the nuts and bolts of the rapidly evolving television business -- told with insight, brevity, and wit.  Basin's experience on both sides of the buyer/seller equation really shows through, and makes this book a valuable tool for anyone who wants to understand the business side of the shows we love to watch.”

Dan Scharf
Amazon Studios, Head of Business Affairs

"Rob Williams’ eminently readable chapter on motion picture financing is a testament to both his intellect and the depth and breadth of his experience in this field. Highly recommended."

Lucy Wainwright
Head of Business Affairs at Raindog Films

"As the managing partner at Singer Burke Zimmer, LLP, I am eager to have a concise resource available that covers the complex legal and taxation environment as it relates to the Entertainment Industry, especially with the level of detail and transparency that Shane and Brad have brought to this subject matter.  I highly recommend this book to the tax practitioner, as well as the non-tax practitioner, for an in-depth look at the intricacies and opportunities of today’s changing laws, including the recently enacted Tax Cuts and Jobs Act.  Congratulations on a book that is bound to help many entrepreneurs, as well as established business owners, as they start/continue their journey.  Job Well Done!"

Matthew A. Burke (SPA, CFP)
Managing Partner, Singer Burke Zimmer, LLP

"The intricacies and details of the legal aspects of theater are skillfully and precisely outlined in this book.  It's not an easy task, and the authors spell everything out so clearly that even this non-lawyer can understand it all!  I was very impressed by how easily things are explained, and I can think of no better guide to help anyone through every step needed in producing for the theater."

Theodore S. Chapin
