Seminar: From brief to delivery – navigating creative talent mobility

Creative businesses thrive when they bring together the right people at the right time.

As the UK and US creative industries become more closely connected, access to international talent presents new opportunities and challenges for productions, clients and growth. But making cross-border collaboration work smoothly means understanding the practical considerations around immigration, tax and employment.

Join specialists from Moore SGD Law, DeBellis Aviv Pardini and Moore Kingston Smith, alongside industry leaders from the Advertising Producers Association (APA), Uncommon Creative Studio and Biscuit Filmworks for an interactive discussion exploring how businesses can make the most of creative talent and opportunities across the UK and US.

Our panel will cover:

• How can creative businesses assemble the best team for a project, regardless of where the talent is located?
• What opportunities & challenges are emerging for agencies, brands and production companies operating across the UK and US?
• How can businesses plan for international talent mobility without compromising production schedules, budgets or speed to market?
• What do employers need to consider regarding visas, tax and employment obligations when moving talent between the two markets?
• What can businesses learn from organisations already operating across borders and building international creative teams?

Expect practical insight and an open discussion about making international collaboration work, followed by audience Q&A. Alesia Duff-Farrier, APA, will chair the discussion, with panellists including:

• Aja Pardini, Partner, DeBellis Aviv Pardini LLP
• Joseph Choudhury, Solicitor, Moore SGD Law LLP
• Kelly Ricketts, International Tax Director, Moore Kingston Smith LLP
• Ben Major, Global Head of Talent, Uncommon Creative Studio
