First Look deal

On Thursday, Lizzo and TV co-chairs Vernon Sanders and Albert Cheng announced during a press conference at a virtual television critics’ association. Lizzo briefly phoned the meeting to express her excitement about the deal.

In the entertainment industry, a first-hand contract pays a negotiated price for an independent writer or artist to allow a particular studio first-tips in their work. This happens before they complete a script or pitch. 

This gives the studio the first look of the finished product and the first opportunity to purchase it. By law, Amazon bought the first disclaimer.

In this case, it’s like a freelance contact. Amazon Studios has such a big budget to go with its huge audience that they can win any bidding war they want to enter. Translated; Lizzo will create exclusive content for their streaming site.

Honeymoon phase

“Lizzo is one of the most enthusiastic, creative and happy artists in the industry. It’s a great pleasure to announce this new deal with her … She has such a unique perspective, and we’re so excited to hear her ideas for new content that our Prime Video clients want to make sure.”

The beloved singer was delighted to have a new platform to create art. She said:

“I am so happy to be partnering with the amazing team at Amazon… Thanks to Jen Salke and the rest of the team for making this dream come true. I can’t wait to get started and share my vision with the world. “
