Hello End Scene fans! Tony and Evan are excited to welcome the very first guest of 2024 to the pod: entertainment and IP attorney Nicole Dolgon. Nicole is a partner at ESCA Legal and brings a wealth of knowledge and experience in the celebrity and IP licensing space. This week, Nicole joins Tony and Evan to talk about Bad Bunny's copyright infringement lawsuit against a fan who recorded full-length songs and uploaded them on YouTube (08:40). Later, Nicole shares her background in celebrity licensing, what she looks for in accepting clients, and shares her legal takeaways on celebrity licensing in Super Bowl commercials (21:35). Later, Tony, Evan, and Nicole wrap up by sharing their favorite celebrity collaboration with a brand (45:46).
Special thanks to Nicole for joining End Scene! You can follow her on Instagram, and you can learn more about ESCA Legal on their website and on Instagram. Also, if you're in the NYC area on Friday, April 5, 2024, you can purchase tickets to this year's Escapades event, a panel and networking event catered to those in the IP and entertainment law space!
