New Blog

Just set up a new blog re: copyright infringement cases and what to do about them. More cases to follow as they're made known to me:

http://filmindustryblacklist.blogspot.com

It's truly disconcerting when this happens. All the more reason to (a) get an entertainment lawyer and (b) not bother sending your work unsolicited to producers. Rip-off artists will always get what's coming to them and get blacklisted.
