Our core work is representing major film and television production companies in brand integration and marketing activation deals. In short, we pitch entertainment projects on behalf of producers to seamlessly integrate brands into the storylines of feature films, TV, new media, and music properties; negotiate and document those deals; follow through during pre-production, production, and post-production to ensure the integrations and/or make-goods; and further follow through during distribution to "activate" on the integrations.
Moreover, as a lawyer, I have in the past represented large brands (such as Coca-Cola, AT&T, Toyota, Sears/Kmart, Johnson & Johnson, Samsung, American Express, and Diageo) and smaller brands (such as popchips, Godiva, Pabst, Gallo, and King's Hawaiian) in their Hollywood deals in production and licensing.
