Should come with the cd September 30, 2008
A good, albeit US centric book, with some handy contracts. Unfortunately the digital version of these contracts are only available buy paying much more seperately. Would be nice if these were included or downloadable.

Great! September 30, 2008
Although he is based in L.A. and this book can throw New Yorkers off a tad, Litwak offers great information, clean and concise. Could not ask for more. Happy with the purchase and do recommend this to anyone needing these types of contracts. Although I do wish his CD (with these contracts) was alot more cheaper than what it is going for now.

For those serious about producing June 8, 2007

Good basic legal information oriented towards the independent feature film producer but useful for anyone who wants to produce film or other distributed video. Won't replace having an attorney but will allow you to do some things by yourself and understand what is going on when you need to hire one. Similar to "The Independent Film Producer's Survival Guide" but with enough distinct material (example contracts for instance) to be worth having both.

Comprehensive and a terrific resource. The goal is not to use the book instead of legal advice, but it is a terrific starting point.

This is a useful and inspirational book that explains a variety of legal film production matters and provides drafts of contracts for basically every aspect of film & TV production. And it covers all major players in the colossal process of making a film, helping to make sure that whatever your role in the production is, you understand your rights.
