Title Reports, Script and Production Clearances

Are you a TV or Film producer navigating the complex world of clearances? I'm here to simplify the process.

Film and TV Clearances, founded by Jessica Moran, is a leading UK company specialising in title reports, script clearance reports and production clearances.

What services do you offer?

From an initial title report and script clearance report (neg check), to production clearances and post production reviews of cuts, I have the knowledge to negotiate clearance terms and licence agreements with IP owners.

Title reports (NEW): Essential clearance for E&O insurance. Comprehensive multi-jurisdictional searches and risk analysis to ensure your film or TV title is clear for distribution.

Script clearance reports: A thorough analysis of your project to identify potential legal challenges and ensure all necessary rights are secured.

Obtaining & negotiating clearances: Efficient management of permissions and licences, ensuring a smooth production process.

Provision of licences and releases: Navigating the intricacies of copyrights, trademarks, and other legal considerations to protect your creative assets.

Why work with me?

With both legal and practical production experience, I bring a deep understanding of rights and clearance challenges and the importance of commercial terms along with a knowledge of the practicalities of physical production.

I have worked with major studios and production companies, across a wide slate of film and television productions, including BBC, BFI, Film4, Left Bank Pictures, Playground, Netflix and SISTER; and I understand that the position with clearances can differ depending on the platform.

Tailored solutions: Each project is unique, and I customise my services to fit your specific needs and budget.

Efficiency: Timely and precise handling of all legal aspects and a wide bible of contacts with brands and publishers to facilitate fast responses, allowing you to focus on your creative vision without unnecessary delays.

Risk mitigation: Proactive identification and resolution of potential legal hurdles, minimising the risk of complications down the road.

We established easy communication straight away and she has always been reliable, attentive to details and flexible to adapt to each project and workflow. The three projects were quite different from one another: a period independent drama, a low-budget horror and a studio sci-fi drama. She could easily connect with each of them and efficiently liaise with each department despite the different partnerships. She is thoughtful and precise. A trustworthy member of the production team.”
