The duo work to help their clients maximize opportunities in a shifting business landscape. Ramo repped Imagine Entertainment in a podcast division negotiation for a slate deal with iHeartMedia a well as in the sales of “Lucy & Desi” to Amazon and “Downfall: The Case Against Boeing” to Netflix. She also worked on the sale of Amazon original “Something From Tiffany’s.” Chang provided representation for 2022 Tribeca selections “Broadway Rising” (Boardwalk Pictures), “God Save the Queens,” (GSTQ Film ) and “Rudy! A Documusical.” She also repped the Solution Entertainment Group’s “Blacklight,” starring Liam Neeson, as well as the production company behind 2022 Sundance Special Jury Award-winner “Descendant” and selections “TikTok, Boom” (Campfire), “Watcher” (Image Nation) and “We Need to Talk About Cosby” (Boardwalk Pictures).

New landscape, new choices: “We’re seeing a market correction from our studios and our production companies that have the capital where they hibernate and hoard their content,” says Ramo. “So, there’s a bit of an exchange where content creators wonder whether they should do work for hire for a streamer or self-finance a project.”
