Unscripted and Unfiltered: Upcoming Webinar Covers Hot-Button Legal Topics for Reality Producers
If you’re producing unscripted television, it’s not just the talent that’s unpredictable—it’s the legal landscape too. That’s why we’re flagging this one: a must-attend two-part legal webinar series co-presented by Revolution, Three Olive Media Advisors and NPACT.
Part 1 kicks off Tuesday, April 29 at 11:00 AM PT / 2:00 PM ET.
If you work in unscripted, this is the legal check-in you didn’t know you needed—but absolutely do.
What’s On the Agenda?
In this opening session, the panel dives into the most pressing contract and legal trends facing producers right now, including:
✅ Production Services Agreements: What’s standard, what’s shifting, and how to protect your bottom line
✅ Talent Agreements & Participant Releases: Avoiding costly errors and keeping it watertight
✅ Influencers & Content Creators: Navigating the new digital stars without the legal landmines
✅ AI & Digital Rights: How to handle emerging tech before it handles you
This is built specifically for the unscripted world, and that makes it essential. Whether you’re overseeing a docuseries, game show, lifestyle format, or branded digital series, the issues discussed here affect your workflow, your deals, and your risk.
Who Should Attend?
If you’re a producer, showrunner, business affairs exec, or indie shop owner, this one’s for you. It’s also highly relevant to those managing contracts for influencers or developing branded content that sits at the blurry edge of editorial and sponsorship.
Seats are filling quickly. Join the smart folks already signed up and stay ahead of the curve.
We’ll be watching closely—and bringing you takeaways right here on StageRunner. Because when production moves fast, knowing the legal terrain isn’t optional. It’s survival.
