Event Review

October 2025

Edwards Creative Law was thrilled to be part of The Animation Conference (TAC) 2025 during the Ottawa International Animation Festival (OIAF). From insightful conversations to inspiring pitches, TAC is a vibrant celebration of Canada’s animation community—and we’re honoured to have contributed regularly over the years.

A special thank you to everyone who attended the seminar “How-to Co-Pro: Connect with Edwards Creative Law,” hosted by our managing partner and entertainment lawyer Mark Edwards on TAC Day 2. Feel free to download the presentation slides via the link below, regardless of attendance.

We were also proud to sponsor the Pitch THIS! award at TAC, and congratulations to the winner “On The Haunt” by Miranda Li and Joy Zhou ($1,000 in legal services), and the runner-up “The Story Tree” by Ri Webb (a free 1-hour legal consultation). We’re excited to see where your projects are going next and honoured to support your creative journey.

Testimonials From Our Clients

Will definitely reach out again.

Michael Duboff was thorough and patient explaining a rather problematic publishing contract that I needed a review for, and his expertise and experience in the legal realm of publishing provided a lot of insight I couldn’t have gotten otherwise. His advice was much needed, and I also greatly appreciated the encouragement he gave me to negotiate for a set of terms I was comfortable with. I will definitely reach out to him should I find myself in such a situation again.
