record producers and entertainment lawyers are a musicians kryptonite.if any of you out there want to become musicians learn as much as possible about producing music,knowing your way around recording studios,and entertainment law BEFORE you get involved in the music business.youll be doing yourself a favor
This was very helpful, thank you for uploading.
Good point about entertainment lawyer. I learned a lot from your video.
This video is very interesting in the standpoint of understanding how the record business has really shrunk. Chances are it will shrink more, but expand in different circumstances.
Great video
Very informative.
Do you have to go to an specific law school or do you just specialize in entertainment law while in school?
Sailing Baylana no man. Every law school pretty much offers the same stuff. It’s a lot of those same things that apply to a Music lawyers job. Example: you’re probably going to be dealing with a lot of copyright stuff if you’re retained by Warner Bros. and loyalty related stuff.
Every entertainment industry is different. Jay was speaking about music specifically. You should research law schools attended by successful entertainment lawyers. Make sure the school offers entertainment law classes and has a significant commitment to intellectual property, as copyright is the heart of all entertainment. Contract law is required in every law school in year one and if you don't do well in that you should probably pivot to another path. You'll also probably want to go to school in the state where you want to practice -- either NY or CA. Internships and clerkships are as important as your law school education if not more important. You'll have to network to get those and alumni may help you. You have to understand the business of the industry you want to serve as well as the law. Keep in mind there are transactional entertainment lawyers and litigation entertainment lawyers.
You could contact me. Sorry a bit late.
Hit me up on FB I'm interested.
Does...does he think every entertainment lawyer works in music?
No. He's probably more involved with the music side of the entertainment industry
