I don't know much about entertainment law but a quick search on google reveals plenty of information.

Anyway, I don't think it really matters what or where you do undergrad; however, make sure your g.p.a. is good and your LSAT is high.

For law school I found this here:

Quote:
Question: Out of the UC schools here in California, which is the best one to attend for intellectual property and copyright and/or entertainment law?

Answer: UCLA is certainly a good school for entertainment law. Many other law schools also offer such courses. Law students who want to go into entertainment law should take contracts and torts, which all students take, and such electives as copyright, trademark, and maybe patent law. Besides the course work, attending a law school in the vicinity of where you want to practice may have advantages. If you think you will be working in Los Angeles, then attending a school there will allow you to participate in internships and summer jobs that may help you establish the relationships needed to get that first job. Most entertainment lawyers are located in New York or Los Angeles, although those who specialize in music might reside in Nashville, and those who are in multimedia might reside in Seattle or Silicon Valley.
Browse the page for any other information.
