In the age of easily accessible self distribution, cheap gear, and the ability to make and distribute a feature film for less than 10,000 dollars it’s understandable to wonder why you would want to spend 10,000-100,000 dollars a day on recognizable name talent.

I’m not a lawyer, but I get a fair amount of questions about the legal structure of a Production company and a film. So I thought I would write a blog about how I’ve learned to structure each individual entity, as well as the benefits and drawbacks of each choice.
Generally, you’ll want to have one legal entity that exists as your production company, and one legal entity for each project you produce.

If you’re producing episodic content, you can probably get by with one entity per season. |
