Audiovisual & Entertainment Law

What is the Audiovisual & Entertainment Law? 

Audiovisual Law is a new discipline in the Legal landscape that arose at the end of the 19th century and expanded in the 20th century as a result of the new technologies that were introduced, creating new realities, which led to the need to adapt it to the regulations in place. 

Understood in a broader sense, audiovisual law includes the rules regulating audiovisual services, which includes the content regime, as well as the networks and infrastructures that are specific to them. It is the set of legal rules that regulate the entertainment industry from a multidisciplinary perspective.
