German to English translations [PRO]
Law/Patents - Law: Contract(s) / Film Production Contract
German term or phrase: Motivvertrag
This term refers to the contract that is entered into between a film production company and the owner of the location where the film is shot. It regulates all sorts of things like periods when the location can be used by the film company, remuneration for use, and not least the rights related to broadcasting and distributing the recordings/photos. I cannot find a reasonable translation, but the closest I have come to is a "film production contract." That does not seem to capture it. If you believe this is the best translation, please write that in the comments/dialogue box.

I am aware that "Motiv" in the artistic/literary sense can also mean the "subject," i.e., that which is filmed or photographed. This, too, does not seem to work in the context of Motivvertrag (?Subject Contract?). I am not aware of the special meaning of this term in a legal context where a contract is involved.

Any help will be appreciated.
