Entertainment Lawyers.com Terms

 


Today's Terms

Bleed

Definition:
Printing to the edge of the page, leaving no margin.

Financier

Definition:
The financier is a non-developing financial provider for a film. Simply, financiers are usually money sources looking to invest in complete, packaged scripts. Although they have the ability to bring a significant amount of a movie's budget, financiers are often money people looking at the bottom line - does the project have marketable elements already in place? Unlike most developing studios, these money sources move from script to screen quickly, however, most of the initial footwork must already have been done.

Kill Date

Definition:
The expiration date of advertising materials. Kill dates notify media outlets that an advertisement should not be broadcast or placed after that date.
