Contract Management Services
Expert handling of production contracts and legal documentation.
Contract management in Chinese film production covers the drafting, negotiation, and administration of agreements with crew, talent, vendors, locations, and rights holders. NRTA (National Radio and Television Administration) regulations, Chinese contract law requirements, and the unique landscape of talent management through agencies in Beijing and Shanghai all require careful navigation to ensure productions comply with Chinese legal and regulatory frameworks.
We provide contract management support that addresses the specific legal and administrative needs of your production in China. Our team coordinates with local entertainment lawyers familiar with NRTA approval processes, Chinese labor contract law, and foreign co-production requirements to prepare and manage production agreements across Beijing, Shanghai, Hengdian, and other major production hubs.
