I AM MOON MAN® turns entertainment law into a full-scale brand war involving copyrights, trademarks, contracts, talent agency law, nightlife culture, social media empires, merchandising, comic books, anonymous performers, and millions of dollars in disputed intellectual property. The mysterious DJ MOON MAN is selling out shows and festivals world-wide. No one has ever seen his, or her, true face...but if someone did, would it even be the correct face? Inspired by real world entertainment industry dynamics and played in the style of a "Live" client file, I AM MOON MAN forces students to think like real-world entertainment lawyers - balancing legal doctrine, business leverage, human emotion, branding strategy, and litigation risk. Players can't merely identify issues! Players must use their legal and life skills to determine WHAT IS MOON MAN? With so much input from so many individual, WHO IS MOON MAN? Two very different people with different skill sets both claim, "I AM MOON MAN." Is either correct? Are both? Who truly owns the MOON MAN identity and business? Can MOON MAN survive without its true creator? PROJECT: I AM MOON MAN forces players into a game of...what happens when a fictional character becomes more valuable than the person behind, or inside, a story.

MOONRISE: MAKING MOON MAN is the exciting prequel to I AM MOON MAN, taking students to the moment MOON MAN was about to change from an idea to an opportunity. Students are there as Kathy Fraser transforms an idea into a fully developed multi-million dollar entertainment empire. But students do not merely study the law, they practice it. Students build an appropriate entity structure for the business and its various revenue streams, form LLCs and or corporations, obtain EIN(s), prepare corporate formalities, draft business and appearance contracts, and pursue copyright and trademark registrations. They may even respond to trademark office actions. Every component is controlled by the professor, allowing MOONRISE: MAKING MOON MAN to be customized for numerous law school and business classes including Intellectual Property, Business Entities, Contracts, Start-Up Law, Entrepreneurship, Business & Business Law Labs, Entrepreneurial Law, or Entertainment Law. Used as a focused classroom exercise or a comprehensive semester project, MOONRISE: MAKING MOON MAN turns legal doctrine into an immersive, practical, and unforgettable professional experience.
