Bounce Patrol • Temps plein

Apr 2014 - Sep 2022 • 8 yrs 5 mos

My role with Bounce Patrol involved addressing the legal responsibilities associated with producing and distributing entertainment designed for children and families. I provided guidance on creative ownership, commercial partnerships, performer relationships, and the protection of original music and audiovisual productions. Children's entertainment required particular attention to how creative material was developed, presented, and commercially distributed. I examined agreements covering original songs, musical compositions, choreography, character designs, costumes, animations, and recorded performances to establish ownership and permitted uses. Working with musicians, performers, composers, producers, and creative contractors introduced questions concerning compensation, recording rights, royalties, credits, confidentiality, and intellectual property assignments. I structured contractual arrangements to clarify each contributor's rights and responsibilities while protecting the company's creative catalogue. Digital distribution and promotional activities presented additional considerations involving streaming platforms, licensing, advertising standards, sponsorships, merchandising, and content directed toward younger audiences. I assessed privacy requirements, commercial disclosures, brand collaborations, and permissions for using protected material across different media channels. Disputes involving unauthorized uploads, copyright infringement, royalty disagreements, licensing restrictions, or misuse of original characters required careful examination of ownership records and contractual evidence. My legal involvement helped Bounce Patrol preserve its intellectual property, manage commercial relationships, protect its brand identity, and expand the reach of its children's entertainment content.
