Signed, Sealed,
Delivered, I'm Yours
A recent NSW Supreme Court case provides a useful reminder on the benefit of
having a clear date of contract and a good deal making and contracting process.
Its cast of entertainment industry characters included Dame Kiri Te Kanawa, John
Farnham, Leading Edge Events (a concert and event promotion company), and their
respective agents, managers and directors. The takeaway from the case - it is
far easier to find that there is a contract under law when one has a document
clearly agreed and effective on and from a particular date.

Use design briefs
to shape your projects
Many projects begin life in a brief. A brief defines project needs and sets
the path towards a solution. A design brief helps in the document-intensive job
of project definition and execution. Like all good project management, this
reduces legal issues.

genres to answer copyright questions

to understand and apply know-how regarding formats and genres. This is another
way to reduce legal issues.
