Artist Stewardship

A film is a relay race.

Many hands carry labor, risk, time, and belief across the finish line. SHARE LOVE makes that truth structural — in deals, in accounting, in the decisions that come long after premiere night.

These five commitments shape every Representation Agreement we sign and every statement we issue. They are codified in the Artist Stewardship Manifesto, a signed exhibit to every kit.

01

Stewardship over salesmanship.

We say no to deals that diminish a film, even when they pay. A premiere is a beginning, not a deadline — and short-term revenue rarely outruns long-term reputation.

How it shows up in the agreement

Pre-approved minimum terms in every agreement. No deal closes that falls beneath the floor the filmmaker set.

02

Transparency by default.

Quarterly statements, open expense logs, and an audit right that costs nothing when exercised in good faith. The accounting is the relationship.

How it shows up in the agreement

Single Collection Account Manager. Statements include unit allocations and year-to-date totals.

03

Accessibility is the baseline.

Captions, audio description, and sensory-friendly options are part of finishing a film — not a premium tier, not a favor, not an afterthought.

How it shows up in the agreement

CEA-608/708 captions and audio-described tracks delivered at no charge with every educational license.

04

Shared upside.

When we win, the people who made the film win. The MFN Participation Pool keeps that promise structural, not sentimental.

How it shows up in the agreement

Addendum A pools producer net receipts into transparent unit allocations across cast, crew, and creative leads.

05

Education is distribution.

Schools, libraries, and community spaces are first-class venues. A classroom screening is not a smaller deal — it is a longer one.

How it shows up in the agreement

Educational Licensing Addendum with public performance rights, tiered MFN pricing, and a perpetual licensed-term option.

FAQ

Representation, rights, accounting.

What does exclusive representation actually mean?
SHARE LOVE is the sole agent for distribution, licensing, sales, exhibition, festival placement, and ancillary exploitation for a three-year term. Filmmakers retain copyright and reserved rights at all times; we negotiate on their behalf and bring all binding offers back for written approval.
Who owns the film?
The filmmaker. Our agreements explicitly preserve copyright and underlying author rights. SHARE LOVE retains ownership only of its proprietary Toolkit, marks, and JEDI+A stewardship methodology — never the film.
How are filmmakers paid?
Through a single Collection Account Manager that handles waterfall splits per Exhibit C. SHARE LOVE earns a 15% representation fee on Net Receipts (after distributor fees and approved expenses). When the MFN Pool is elected, a 15% talent participation layer sits alongside the fee, with investor recoupment satisfied next and producer net profits last. Quarterly statements and an audit right apply throughout.
What happens after the three-year term?
Active distribution rights revert, but the survival clause keeps relationships SHARE LOVE introduced flowing through us for opportunities seeded during the term. Renewal is by mutual written agreement.
