On Tuesday, March 8th, 2016, Cypress founder and intellectual property expert Bob Muller lectured as a featured panelist at Rio Content Market 2016, Latin America’s biggest international audiovisual production conference, focusing on the best practices for writer’s and producer’s net profit participation in Hollywood film and TV deals as part of the opening program revolving heavily around intellectual work protection in the audiovisual industry.
Presenting alongside Gilberto Toscano, partner and head of Media Practice at Cesnik, Quintino & Salinas Advogados of São Paulo, Muller provided insight into how lawyers analyze the percentage of writer’s and producer’s contingent compensation and how to address the protection of brands and formats. Additionally, he provided insights of highly specialized legal terms which often require clarification for many producers and writers struggling to navigate their way throughout the IP business model.
