Core practice
We trade rights in film and video content. Selection, chain-of-title checks, licence negotiation, contracting and settlement — we can handle all of it, or just the part you need.
Product lines
The buyers, the way pricing works and the licensing cycles differ a lot across these four, so we run them separately. Typical licence structures and delivery times are listed below.
Licensing of AI-generated video assets for advertisers, short-video creators, and content platforms. Supplied in volume and licensed by package — suited to buyers with continuous creative burn.
Licensing footage for training AI video models. We supply source material and structured annotation, and the licence states explicitly whether the footage may be used for model training. Leaving that unstated is what causes disputes later.
Acquisition and distribution of short-form drama from and into Chinese-speaking markets. Single titles or packaged slates, with subtitling, dubbing, and localized versions arranged in the license.
Rights acquisition and licensing representation for features, series, and documentaries — new releases, library titles, and territory sub-licensing.
Services
You can hand over all four of these, or just one or two.
Deal terms
If any one of these is left vague it tends to cause trouble later, so we go through them one by one before signing.
| Dimension | Common options | What to watch |
|---|---|---|
| Exclusivity | Exclusive / non-exclusive / limited exclusive | Exclusivity typically carries a 30–100% premium — be honest about your distribution reach first |
| Territory | Single market / Greater China / worldwide | Wider costs more, and any territory you acquire but never work is sunk cost |
| Term | 1 / 3 / 5 years, or outright buyout | Check renewal priority at expiry and what happens to delivered materials |
| Windows | Theatrical / TVOD / SVOD / AVOD | Window order and spacing determine total recoverable revenue per title |
| Settlement | Flat buyout / MG plus revenue share / pure revenue share | A revenue share without a stated reporting cadence and audit right is unenforceable in practice |
