BASIC STAFF



Welcome to the Company

This booklet (or folder) is your job description (also called a "Hat".) Its purpose is to brief you on the duties of the job and the products which you, individually, and the company collectively are responsible for creating.

Although it is recognized that you may know far more than the information covered in this Hat, we would like you to regard these materials as the minimum standard for the Company's products. If you perform the duties of your post as written in the hats, functions will not be duplicated or left out and the Company's overall operation will be more efficient.

A Hat will contain Movie Memostm and Tech Memostm. Movie Memos are based on principals that have proven to be useful over the long run and therefor are adopted as policy. They point the direction to what one might consider an "ideal" way things should run. Tech Memos are detailed write-ups on specific technical aspects of the film/video, audio, electronic and computer industries. All Memos and Hats come from basically three different sources: 1) opinions of professionals in the field, such as Lee Garmes, 2) my experience in doing these Hats myself and 3) periodicals, textbooks and computer data bases.

Most of this material has been compiled and written over the last 20 years as it became evident. Hundreds of people have used these materials and helped forge them into useful Memos. Where possible, dates appear on the materials as they were originated so you can read them from that view point in time. Nothing is perfect, so when information needs to be revised, a newly dated Memo will be released.

Change

It is desirable to refrain from changing and redefining Hats, Posts, Org Boards, Memos and words as much as possible. Unfortunately and fortunately, upgrading and improving Memos creates short-term confusion supposedly for long-term benefits. Therefore, please understand that these Job Descriptions will change and be modified from time to time. This should not be used as an excuse, however, to learn your Hat less well on the grounds that, "well it will probably change." As time goes on, and viable methods of doing things become more evident, these Hats and Memos will settle down. Expect changes and adapt to them from the point of view that they are permanent - they very well may be.

Individual Copyrights

Because these Memos are designed to be individually dispensed as they are written to, not only personnel of the Company, but of its franchises and others, each Memo is copyrighted separately because it was written as a unit of thought on a particular subject when some experience inspired its creation on a given day.

Notice

The materials found herein (including the Hats and Memos) are copyrighted and owned by James R. Jaeger II and licensed to Mini Mogul Enterprises, a division of Matrixx Entertainment Corporation (the franchising "Company" sometimes referred to as "MEC"), for use in that Company as well as for the purpose of sub-licensing the materials to other companies established (such as MOVIE PUBS) or franchised through Mini Mogul Enterprises, or as given away in abridged form over the Internet.

The Movie Mogul Manual, The Mini Mogul Manual and the Movie Memos and Tech Memos that comprise same are company-confidential and trade secrets, unless sold or given away over the Internet in abridged. As such it is illegal to copy, lend or give same to anyone not authorized by the copyright owner or its agents, in writing. Anyone, or any company, violating this Notice will be prohibited from using all existing and future Memos and definite legal action will be taken.

New Words & Check Outs

If there are any words you come across that you do not fully understand, please get them defined with a good dictionary. This is one of the most important habits you can develop and we are particularly respectful of the person, professional or student, who does this at the slightest uncertainty.

Within five (5) business days of employment, every person assuming a post for the Company is required to report to the Hatting Officer (in the Quality Control Division) for a full check out, and pass, on their job as delineated in their Hat. As a condition of employment, each person understands and agrees that pay will be withheld until they comply with this policy.

Your Views

Your opinions are valuable and possibly your experience is invaluable, therefore, please let the VP Quality Control know of anything you feel will improve your Hat or the Company. Knowledge of this sort will help others and can very well raise the state of the art of motion pictures and the culture that is influenced by your work. Best Wishes.

Does NOT use the language: "This offer shall remain open for X." The later closes the door while the former, accomplishing the same thing, leaves the door open for the company.

o Sees to it that in any deal that is closed, all sides feel they are profiting and there are no imbalances, that will ultimately recoil the deal.

Pursuant to the By-Laws of the Company: The officers shall be elected at the first meeting of the Board of Directors after each annual meeting. More than two offices may be held by the same person.

The Board of Directors may appoint such officers and agents as it may deem advisable, who shall hold their offices for such terms and shall exercise power and perform such duties as shall be determined from time to time by the Board of Directors.

Therefore, such Duties and Responsibilities shall be as follows:

The Director of Business Affairs is the chief negotiator and head of business affairs of the company who is responsible for negotiating all financing deals on behalf of the company. The Director of Business Affairs may or may not be an attorney - and it is preferable that he or she is an attorney with an excellent math and computer background. Negotiating skill is first priority, knowledge of business/marketing/financing/production is second priority and knowledge of the law is third priority for this hat. He or she must know production and negotiating cold. Being an attorney after this qualification is icing. He or she may or may not be General Counsel for the corporation. In the event the hat of General Counsel and Director of Business are performed by the same individual qualified to do so, he or she shall retain the title of VP Business Affairs.

Reports to the President or the Exec VP Operations if the President is not available.

DIR BUSINESS AFFAIRS RESPONSIBILITIES:
o Skillful and swiftly negotiated deals that are viable, favorably, fair closed on behalf of the Company.

o Creation and coordination of strategies.

o Keeps track of all business affairs of the Company and is responsible for all contract Administration.

o Negotiates and coordinates the negotiation of all company business affairs and deals for the Company.

o Makes certain that no set of rights or any contract item is given away twice.

o Works closely with General Counsel to make certain that anything that is done is not against public policy.

Does NOT use the language: "This offer shall remain open for X." The later closes the door while the former, accomplishing the same thing, leaves the door open for the company.

o Observes the maxim that, if the company is going to hinge its strategy on an offer with an unmatchable element connected, make sure the element or proposition is, in fact, unmatchable.

o Once negotiation starts on any real and solid project, never negotiate directly, always use an agent or attorney. Please be acutely aware of the fact that negotiating and knowing the law are TWO (2) different specialties. People think that the two go hand in hand for some reason or a person good at one is good at the other. That is FALSE. I know some attorneys that don't know the law for beans but they can negotiate you into a flat corner. On the other hand I know one trust attorney who is absolutely brilliant with the law, but his negotiating points get blown around like a hand full of sand in the wind.

Negotiating is debate over terms.

Lawyers are useful in the negotiating process only because they:

a. Know cold the rules of the Game (the law).
b. What Daddy (the court) will probably say if you can't divide the candy. (Precedent)

IF A LAWYER DOESN'T KNOW FILMMAKING AND ALL IT'S MOVING ELEMENTS - HOW CAN HE REALLY NEGOTIATE? If he doesn't really know the difference between an answer print and a release print but calls them "lab materials", your negotiating power will be BLUNT to that degree.

Director of Business Affairs must be a NEGOTIATOR first, a Filmmaker second and a lawyer third. That's is the priority. He must know arithmetic and mathematics cold. If he can't do algebraic word problems - that's a very bad sign. If he reads past words he doesn't know - that's a very bad sign. If he is slow in responding - that's a very bad sign.

o Generally when inexperienced attorneys enter into the scene, unless they are highly experienced and CRACK, they muck everything up and complicate the dealing. NEVER use an attorney as a negotiator, "mouth piece" or communicator, for a speculative deal. If you, or your employee, can do it in a friendly manner, that's the best way. Negotiating is best done by someone who is on salary and paid a discounted agent's percentage. The salary keeps them from closing the deal too fast and the percentage helps them keep it from metamorphosing for too long.

o Is custodian of all Deal Memo originals.

o Must send one (1) copy of each final or interim Deal Memo each to the President and to General Counsel within 24 hours of execution no matter how many drafts have been passed back and forth or are contemplated until settlement.

o Applies the rest of "Negotiating Tips" as in Movie Memo of 18 February 1986 which is hereby made an integral part of this hat.
