LES Webinar: Video Game Licensing – The Worst Mistakes I Ever Made

Why are games made from films generally terrible? Why are films made from games generally terrible? Is there something about the nature of the IP in each case that makes it untranslatable into another medium? The cause of the problem is cultural and psychological, legal or creative. Those issues start in the deal terms and manifest themselves in poor contracts and processes in the documents. These same failures have existed for almost forty years and the same failures have occurred since E.T. was simultaneously one of the best films ever made and one of the worst Atari games ever made.

In this hour, I am happy to share my mistakes, train wrecks, and occasional triumphs with the hopes that your next media licensing deal will go better than mine.
