Before making contracts and copyright his main hobbies, Shaun worked briefly as a commercial video producer. Unlike many other lawyers who don’t understand the creative world from the inside, he knows that the law is only one way to solve a problem. He has lectured about contracts and intellectual property at various colleges, high schools, and conferences on the West coast. The material for “Copyright for Filmmakers” workshop has been prepared by Shaun jointly with New Media Right’s Founder and Executive Director, Art Neill. (Art is an adjunct professor of law at California Western School of Law teaching the course “Social Media and the Law” primarily focused on intellectual property, licensing, and online publishing law. In 2011, Art was appointed as a member of the Federal Communication Commission’s Consumer Advisory Committee.)
