Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
GENERAL | NOTE 1 GENERAL Dolphin Entertainment, Inc., a Florida corporation (the Company, Dolphin, we, us or our), is a leading independent entertainment marketing and premium content development company. Through its acquisitions of 42West LLC (42West), The Door Marketing Group LLC (The Door) and Viewpoint Computer Animation Incorporated (Viewpoint), the Company provides expert strategic marketing and publicity services to all of the major film studios, and many of the leading independent and digital content providers, A-list celebrity talent, including actors, directors, producers, celebrity chefs and recording artists. The Company also provides strategic marketing publicity services and creative brand strategies for prime hotel and restaurant groups. The strategic acquisitions of 42West, The Door and Viewpoint bring together premium marketing services with premium content production, creating significant opportunities to serve respective constituents more strategically and to grow and diversify the Companys business. Dolphins content production business is a well-established, leading entertainment producer, committed to distributing premium, best-in-class film and digital entertainment. Dolphin produces original feature film and digital programming primarily aimed at family and young adult markets. Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Dolphin, and all of its wholly owned subsidiaries, comprising Dolphin Films, Inc. (Dolphin Films), Cybergeddon Productions, LLC, Dolphin SB Productions LLC, Dolphin Max Steel Holdings, LLC (Max Steel Holdings), Dolphin JB Believe Financing, LLC, Dolphin JOAT Productions, LLC, 42West, The Door and Viewpoint. The Company enters into relationships or investments with other entities, and, in certain instances, the entity in which the Company has a relationship or investment may qualify as a variable interest entity (VIE). The Company consolidates a VIE in its financial statements if the Company is deemed to be the primary beneficiary of the VIE. The primary beneficiary is the party that has the power to direct activities that most significantly impact the operations of the VIE and has the obligation to absorb losses or the right to benefits from the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE. The Company has included in its condensed consolidated financial statements the following VIEs: Max Steel Productions, LLC, and JB Believe, LLC. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP) for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act), and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of the Companys management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been reflected in these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2019. The condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2018 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date but does not include all the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read together with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018. Reclassifications Reclassifications have been made to our condensed consolidated financial statements for the prior year period to conform to classifications used in 2019. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. The most significant estimates made by management in the preparation of the financial statements relate to the expected revenue and costs for investments in digital and feature film projects; estimates of sales returns and other allowances, provisions for doubtful accounts and impairment assessments for investment in feature film projects, goodwill and intangible assets. Actual results could differ materially from such estimates. Update to Significant Accounting Policies Our significant accounting policies are detailed in "Note 3: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" within Item 8 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018. Significant changes to our accounting policies as a result of adopting ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) Leases In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at the lease commencement date. In addition to the Companys lease agreements, we review all material new vendor arrangements for potential embedded lease obligations. The asset balance related to operating leases is presented within right-of-use (ROU) asset on the Companys consolidated balance sheet. The current and noncurrent balances related to operating leases are presented as Lease liability, in their respective classifications, on the Companys consolidated balance sheet. The lease liability is recognized based on the present value of the remaining fixed lease payments discounted using the Companys incremental borrowing rate as of January 1, 2019. The ROU asset is calculated based on the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments paid to the lessor at or before the commencement date (i.e. prepaid rent) and initial direct costs incurred by Dolphin and excluding any lease incentives received from the Lessor. The lease term for purposes of lease accounting may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option as of the commencement date of the lease. For operating leases, the lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company accounts for its lease and non-lease components as a single component, and therefore both are included in the calculation of lease liability recognized on the consolidated balance sheets. See Note 18 for further discussion. The Company did not adopt any other accounting pronouncement during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019. Recent Accounting Pronouncements Accounting Guidance not yet adopted In March 2019, the FASB issued new guidance on film production costs ASU 2019-02, (Entertainment Films- Other Assets Film Costs (Subtopic 926-20)). The new guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 and interim periods within those fiscal years and may be adopted early. The new guidance aligns the accounting for the production costs of an episodic series with those of a film by removing the content distinction for capitalization. It also addresses presentation, requires new disclosures for produced and licensed content and addresses cash flow classification for license agreements to better reflect the economics of an episodic series. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the new guidance on its consolidated financial statements. In October 2018, the FASB issued new guidance on consolidation ASU 2018-17, Consolidation (Topic 810): Targeted Improvements to Related Party Guidance for Variable Interest Entities. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 and interim periods within those fiscal years and should be applied retrospectively with a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings at the beginning of the earliest period presented. Early adoption is permitted. The new guidance provides that indirect interests held through related parties in common control arrangements should be considered on a proportional basis for determining whether fees paid to decision makers and service providers are variable interests. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the new guidance on its consolidated financial statements. In August 2018, the FASB issued new guidance on fair value measurement (ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure FrameworkChanges to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement) In June 2016, the FASB issued new guidance on measurement of credit losses (ASU 2016-13, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments) with subsequent amendments issued in November 2018 (ASU 2018-19) and April 2019 (ASU 2019-04). This update changes the accounting for credit losses on loans and held-to-maturity debt securities and requires a current expected credit loss (CECL) approach to determine the allowance for credit losses. It is applicable to trade accounts receivable. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 with a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the year of adoption. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the new guidance on its consolidated financial statements. |

Going Concern | |
GOING CONCERN | NOTE 2 GOING CONCERN The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with U.S. GAAP and contemplate the continuation of the Company as a going concern. The Company had net loss of $891,867 and $769,259, respectively for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, and had an accumulated deficit of $95,298,433 as of June 30, 2019. As of June 30, 2019, the Company had a working capital deficit of $16,143,485 and therefore does not have adequate capital to fund its obligations as they come due or to maintain or grow its operations. The Company is dependent upon funds from the issuance of debt securities, securities convertible into shares of its common stock, par value $0.015 per share (Common Stock), sales of shares of Common Stock and financial support of certain shareholders. If the Company is unable to obtain funding from these sources within the next 12 months, it could be forced to liquidate. These factors raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern. The condensed consolidated financial statements, of which these notes form a part, do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties. In this regard, management currently plans to raise any necessary additional funds through additional issuance of its Common Stock, securities convertible into its Common Stock, debt securities, as well as available bank and non-bank financing, or a combination of such financing alternatives. There is no assurance that the Company will be successful in raising additional capital. Any issuance of shares of Common Stock or securities convertible into Common Stock would dilute the equity interests of our existing shareholders, perhaps substantially. The Company currently has the rights to several scripts, including one currently in development for which it intends to obtain financing to produce and release following which it expects to earn a producer and overhead fee. There can be no assurances that such production, together with any other productions, will be commenced or released or that fees will be realized in future periods or at all. The Company is currently exploring opportunities to expand the services currently being offered by 42West, The Door and Viewpoint while reducing expenses of their respective operations through synergies with the Company. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in expanding such services or reducing expenses. Under the Companys currently effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3, the Company may sell up to $30,000,000 of equity securities. However, pursuant to applicable SEC rules, the Companys ability to sell securities registered under this shelf registration statement, during any 12-month period, is limited to an amount less than or equal to one-third of the aggregate market value of the its common stock held by non-affiliates; therefore, there is no assurance that the Company will be able to raise capital through the issuance and sale of equity securities under this registration statement, irrespective of whether there is market demand for such securities. |

MERGERS AND ACQUISITIONS | NOTE 3 MERGERS AND ACQUISITIONS Viewpoint On October 31, 2018, (the Viewpoint Closing Date) the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Viewpoint, a Massachusetts corporation (the Viewpoint Purchase), pursuant to a share purchase agreement (the Viewpoint Purchase Agreement), among the Company and the former holders of Viewpoints outstanding capital stock (the Viewpoint Shareholders). Viewpoint is a full-service creative branding and production house that has earned a reputation as one of the top producers of promotional and brand-support videos for a wide variety of leading cable networks, media companies and consumer-product brands. The total consideration payable to the Viewpoint Shareholders in respect of the Viewpoint Purchase comprises the following: (i) $500,000 in shares of Common Stock, based on a price per share of Common Stock of $2.29, (ii) $1.5 million in cash (as adjusted for certain working capital and closing adjustments and transaction expenses). On the Viewpoint Closing Date, the Company issued to the Viewpoint Shareholders 218,088 shares of Common Stock and paid the Viewpoint Shareholders an aggregate of $750,000 in cash (the Initial Consideration), adjusted for working capital, indebtedness and certain transaction expenses. Pursuant to the Viewpoint Purchase Agreement, the Company paid to the Viewpoint Shareholders an additional $230,076 cash ($250,000 less a working capital adjustment) on April 30, 2019 and has agreed to pay $250,000 on each of October 31, 2019 and April 30, 2020 for a total of $750,000, less any adjustments for working capital (the Post Closing Consideration and, together with the Initial Consideration, the Viewpoint Purchase Consideration). The Viewpoint Purchase Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants of the parties thereto. The Common Stock issued as part of the Initial Consideration has not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Securities Act). As a condition to the Viewpoint Purchase, two of the Viewpoint Shareholders, Carlo DiPersio and David Shilale have entered into employment agreements with the Company to continue as employees after the closing of the Viewpoint Purchase. Mr. DiPersios employment agreement is through December 31, 2020 and the contract defines base compensation and a bonus structure based on Viewpoint achieving certain financial targets. Mr. Shilales employment agreement is for a period of three years from the Viewpoint Closing Date and the contract defines the base compensation and a commission structure based on Viewpoint achieving certain financial targets. The bonus for Mr. Shilale is determined at the sole discretion of the Companys board of directors and management. Neither agreement provides for guaranteed increases to the base salary. The employment agreements contain provisions for termination and as a result of death or disability and entitles the employee to vacations and to participate in all employee benefit plans offered by the Company. The provisional acquisition-date fair value of the consideration transferred totaled $1,960,165, which consisted of the following: Common Stock issued at closing (218,088 shares) $ 427,452 Cash Consideration paid at closing 750,000 Working capital adjustment, net 32,713 Cash Installment paid on April 30, 2019 250,000 Cash Installment to be paid on October 31, 2019 (included in other current liabilities) 250,000 Cash Installment to be paid on April 30, 2020 (included in other current liabilities) 250,000 $ 1,960,165 The Company has engaged an independent third-party valuation expert to determine the fair values of the various forms of consideration transferred, which is not yet complete. The final amount of consideration may potentially change due to any working capital or other closing adjustments, which have not yet been determined. The fair value of the 218,088 shares of Common Stock issued on the Viewpoint Closing Date was determined based on the closing market price of the Companys Common Stock on the Viewpoint Closing Date of $1.96 per share. The following table summarizes the provisional fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the Viewpoint Closing Date (as adjusted). Amounts in the table are provisional estimates that may change, as described below. Cash $ 206,950 Accounts receivable 503,906 Other current assets 102,411 Property, equipment and leasehold improvements 183,877 Prepaid expenses 32,067 Intangible assets 450,000 Total identifiable assets acquired 1,479,211 Accrued expenses (165,284 ) Accounts payable (77,394 ) Deferred tax liability (182,416 ) Contract liability (190,854 ) Total liabilities assumed (615,948 ) Net identifiable assets acquired 863,263 Goodwill 1,096,902 Net assets acquired $ 1,960,165 Of the provisional fair value of the $450,000 of acquired identifiable intangible assets, $220,000 was assigned to customer relationships (5 years useful life) and $100,000 was assigned to the trade name (5-year useful life), that were recognized at fair value on the acquisition date. The customer relationships will be amortized using an accelerated method, and the trade name will be amortized using the straight-line method. In addition, the Company recognized a favorable lease intangible asset from the Companys Massachusetts office lease in the amount of $130,000. The favorable lease intangible asset was amortized using the straight-line method over the remaining lease term of 26 months. On January 1, 2019, the Company adopted ASC 842 and reclassified the favorable lease asset recognized at the date of acquisition to right-of-use asset. The unamortized balance of the favorable lease asset on January 1, 2019 was $120,000. The provisional fair value of accounts receivable acquired is $503,906, with the gross contractual amount being $509,406. The Company expects $5,500 to be uncollectible. The provisional fair values of property and equipment and leasehold improvements of $183,877, and other assets of $102,411, are based on Viewpoints carrying values prior to the acquisition, which approximate their provisional fair values. The provisional amount of $1,096,902 of goodwill was assigned to the entertainment publicity and marketing segment. The goodwill recognized is attributable primarily to expectations of continued successful efforts to obtain new customers, buyer specific synergies and the assembled workforce of Viewpoint. Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Statements of Operations The following represents the Companys unaudited pro forma consolidated operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 as if Viewpoint had been acquired on January 1, 2018 and its results had been included in the consolidated results of the Company for such period: For the three months ended June 30, For the six months ended June 30, Revenue $ 6,262,785 $ 14,335,476 Net (loss) income $ (107,321 ) $ 1,210,392 The pro forma amounts have been calculated after applying the Companys accounting policies to the financial statements of Viewpoint and adjusting the combined results of the Company and Viewpoint to reflect the amortization that would have been charged assuming the intangible assets had been recorded on January 1, 2018 and applying the Companys effective tax rate to the net income of Viewpoint. The impact of the Viewpoint Acquisition on the Companys actual results for periods following the acquisition may differ significantly from that reflected in this unaudited pro forma information for a number of reasons. As a result, this unaudited pro forma information is not necessarily indicative of what the combined companys financial condition or results of operations would have been had the acquisition been completed on January 1, 2018, as provided in this pro forma financial information. In addition, the pro forma financial information does not purport to project the future financial condition and results of operations of the combined company. The following table summarizes the original and revised estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date of October 31, 2018 and the related measurement period adjustments to the fair values recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2019: October 31, 2018 Measurement Period Adjustments June 30, Cash $ 206,950 $ $ 206,950 Accounts receivable 503,906 503,906 Other current assets 102,411 102,411 Property, equipment and leasehold improvements 183,877 183,877 Prepaid expenses 32,067 32,067 Intangible assets 450,000 450,000 Total identifiable assets acquired 1,479,211 1,479,211 Accrued expenses (165,284 ) (165,284 ) Accounts payable (77,394 ) (77,394 ) Deferred tax liability (190,854 ) (190,854 ) Contract liability (206,636 ) 24,220 (182,416 ) Total liabilities assumed (640,168 ) 24,220 (615,948 ) Net identifiable assets acquired 839,043 24,220 863,263 Goodwill 1,141,046 (44,144 ) 1,096,902 Net assets acquired $ 1,980,089 $ (19,924 ) $ 1,960,165 The above fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed are based on the information that was available as of the Viewpoint Closing Date to estimate the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed. As of October 31, 2018, the Company recorded the identifiable net assets acquired of $839,043 as shown in the table above in its consolidated balance sheet. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, the Companys measurement period adjustments of $24,220 were made and, accordingly, the Company recognized these adjustments in its June 30, 2019 condensed consolidated balance sheet to reflect the adjusted identifiable net assets acquired of $863,263 as shown in the table above. The Company also made a provisional working capital adjustment of $19,924 that was deducted from the second installment paid to the Viewpoint Shareholders on April 30, 2019. The following is a reconciliation of the initially reported fair value to the adjusted fair value of goodwill: Goodwill originally reported at October 31, 2018 $ 1,141,046 Changes to estimated fair values Deferred tax liability (24,220 ) Working capital adjustment (19,924 ) Adjusted goodwill reported at June 30, 2019 $ 1,096,902 The estimated fair value of the deferred tax liability decreased by $24,220 primarily due to the estimated expected future tax rate applied. The Door On July 5, 2018 (the Closing Date), the Company, entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the Merger Agreement), in respect of its acquisition of The Door. On the Closing Date, The Door merged with and into Merger Sub, with Merger Sub surviving the merger and continuing as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. Upon consummation of the Merger, Merger Sub changed its name to The Door Marketing Group, LLC. The Door is an entertainment public relations agency, offering talent publicity, strategic communications and entertainment content marketing primarily in the hospitality sector. The total consideration payable to the former members of The Door (the Members) in respect of the Merger comprises the following: (i) $2.0 million in shares of the Common Stock, based on a price per share of Common Stock of $3.25, (ii) $2.0 million in cash (as adjusted for certain working capital and closing adjustments and transaction expenses) and (iii) up to an additional $7.0 million of contingent consideration in a combination of cash and shares of Common Stock upon the achievement of specified financial performance targets over a four-year period as set forth in the Merger Agreement (the Contingent Consideration). On the Closing Date, the Company issued to the Members 307,692 shares of Common Stock and paid the Members an aggregate of $1.0 million in cash (the Initial Consideration). In October of 2018, the Company agreed to advance $274,500 of the second installment due January 3, 2019 to the Members so they could meet their tax obligations. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, on January 3, 2019, the Company paid an aggregate of $725,500 and issued 307,692 shares of Common Stock to the Members (the Post-Closing Consideration and, together with the Initial Consideration and the Contingent Consideration, the Merger Consideration). The Merger Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants of the parties thereto. The Common Stock issued as Stock Consideration has not been registered under the Securities Act. Each of the Members has entered into a four-year employment agreement with The Door, pursuant to which each Member has agreed not to transfer any shares of Common Stock received as consideration for the Merger (the Share Consideration) in the first year following the closing date of the merger, no more than 1/3 of such Share Consideration in the second year and no more than an additional 1/3 of such Share Consideration in the third year. On the Closing Date, the Company entered into a registration rights agreement with the Members (the Registration Rights Agreement), pursuant to which the Members are entitled to rights with respect to the registration of the Share Consideration under the Securities Act. All fees, costs and expenses of underwritten registrations under the Registration Rights Agreement will be borne by the Company, other than underwriting discounts and commissions. At any time after July 5, 2019, the Company will be required, upon the request of such Members holding at least a majority of the Share Consideration received by the Members, to file up to two registration statements on Form S-3 covering up to 25% of the Share Consideration. The acquisition-date fair value of the consideration transferred totaled $5,999,323, which consisted of the following: Common Stock issued at closing (307,692 shares) $ 1,123,077 Common Stock issued on January 3, 2019 (307,692 shares) 1,123,077 Cash paid to Members on Closing Date 882,695 Members transaction costs paid on Closing Date 117,305 Cash paid October 2018 274,500 Cash paid on January 3, 2019 725,500 Contingent Consideration 1,620,000 Working capital adjustment ($46,000 paid in cash on March 12, 2019. $87,169 will be issued in shares of stock at a later date) 133,169 $ 5,999,323 The Company has engaged an independent third-party valuation expert to determine the fair values of the various forms of consideration transferred. The fair values of the 307,692 shares of Common Stock issued on the Closing Date and the 307,692 shares of Common Stock issued on January 3, 2019 were determined based on the closing market price of the Companys Common Stock on the Closing Date of $3.65 per share. The Contingent Consideration arrangement requires that the Company issue up to 1,538,462 shares of Common Stock and up to $2 million in cash to the Members on achievement of adjusted net income targets, (as set forth in the Merger Agreement), based on the operations of The Door over the four-year period beginning January 1, 2018. The fair value of the Contingent Consideration at the Closing Date was $1,620,000. The fair value of the Contingent Consideration was estimated using a Monte Carlo Simulation model, which incorporates significant inputs that are not observable in the market, and thus represents a Level 3 measurement as defined in ASC 820. The unobservable inputs utilized for measuring the fair value of the Contingent Consideration reflect managements own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in valuing the Contingent Consideration as of the Closing Date. The key assumptions in applying the Monte Carlo Simulation model are as follows: a risk-free discount rate of between 2.11% and 2.67% based on the U.S government treasury obligation with a term similar to that of the contingent consideration, a discount rate of between 20.0% and 20.5%, and an annual asset volatility estimate of 62.5%. Changes in the fair value on the Contingent Consideration are recorded at each balance sheet date with changes reflected as gains or losses on the condensed consolidated statement of operations. See Note 10 for further discussion on the fair value as of June 30, 2019. The following table summarizes the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the Door Closing Date. Cash $ 89,287 Accounts receivable 469,344 Property, equipment and leasehold improvements 105,488 Prepaid expense 31,858 Other assets 30,667 Intangible assets 2,110,000 Total identifiable assets acquired 2,836,644 Accrued expenses (203,110 ) Accounts payable (1,064 ) Unearned income (15,500 ) Other liabilities (1,913 ) Deferred tax liabilities (593,949 ) Total liabilities assumed (815,536 ) Net identifiable assets acquired 2,021,108 Goodwill 3,978,215 Net assets acquired $ 5,999,323 Of the calculation of $2,110,000 of acquired intangible assets, $1,010,000 was assigned to customer relationships (10-year useful life), $670,000 was assigned to the trade name (10-year useful life), $260,000 was assigned to non-competition agreements (2-year useful life) and $170,000 was assigned to a favorable lease from the New York City location (26 months useful life), that were recognized at fair value on the Closing Date. On January 1, 2019, the Company adopted ASC 842 and reclassified the favorable lease asset recognized at the date of acquisition to right-of-use asset. The unamortized balance of the favorable lease asset on January 1, 2019 was $130,769. The fair value of accounts receivable acquired is $469,344. The fair values of property and equipment and leasehold improvements of $105,488, and other assets of $62,525, are based on The Doors carrying values prior to the Merger, which approximate their fair values. The amount of $3,978,215 of goodwill was assigned to the Entertainment publicity and marketing segment. The goodwill recognized is attributable primarily to expectations of continued successful efforts to obtain new customers, buyer specific synergies and the assembled workforce of The Door. Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Statements of Operations The following presents the Companys pro forma consolidated operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 as if The Door had been acquired on January 1, 2018 and its results had been included in the consolidated results of the Company for such period: For the three months ended June 30, For the six months ended June 30, Revenue $ 6,848,310 $ 14,247,354 Net income $ 519,443 $ 1,509,350 These amounts have been calculated after applying the Companys accounting policies and adjusting the results of The Door to reflect (a) the amortization that would have been charged, assuming the intangible assets had been recorded on January 1, 2018 and (b) interest expense from the convertible note payable used to partially pay the consideration for The Door, calculated as if the convertible note payable was outstanding as of January 1, 2018. The impact of the acquisition of The Door on the Companys actual results for periods following the acquisition may differ significantly from that reflected in this unaudited pro forma information for a number of reasons. As a result, this unaudited pro forma information is not necessarily indicative of what the combined companys financial condition or results of operations would have been had the acquisition been completed on January 1, 2018, as provided in this pro forma financial information. In addition, the pro forma financial information does not purport to project the future financial condition and results of operations of the combined company. The following table summarizes the original and revised estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the Closing Date and the related measurement period adjustments to the fair values recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2018: July 5, 2018 Measurement Period Adjustments June 30, 2019 (As adjusted) Cash $ 89,287 $ $ 89,287 Accounts receivable 469,344 469,344 Property, equipment and leasehold improvements 105,488 105,488 Prepaid expenses 31,858 31,858 Other assets 30,667 30,667 Intangible assets 2,110,000 2,110,000 Total identifiable assets acquired 2,836,644 2,836,644 Accrued expenses (203,110 ) (203,110 ) Accounts payable (1,064 ) (1,064 ) Unearned income (15,500 ) (15,500 ) Other liabilities (1,913 ) (1,913 ) Deferred tax liability (584,378 ) (9,571 ) (593,949 ) Total liabilities assumed (805,965 ) (9,571 ) (815,536 ) Net identifiable assets acquired 2,030,679 (9,571 ) 2,021,108 Goodwill 3,835,475 142,740 3,978,215 Net assets acquired $ 5,866,154 $ 133,169 $ 5,999,323 The above fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed are based on the information that was available as of the Closing Date to estimate the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed. As of the Closing Date, the Company recorded the identifiable net assets acquired of $2,030,679 as shown in the table above in its condensed consolidated balance sheet. The Company has reflected adjustments of $142,740 made during the Companys measurement period on its June 30, 2019 condensed consolidated balance sheet to reflect the adjusted identifiable net assets acquired of $2,021,108 as shown in the table above. The following is a reconciliation of the initially reported fair value to the adjusted fair value of goodwill: Goodwill originally reported at July 5, 2018 $ 3,835,475 Changes to estimated fair values Working capital adjustment 133,169 Deferred tax liability 9,571 Adjusted goodwill at June 30, 2019 $ 3,978,215 The estimated fair value of the deferred tax liability increased by $9,571 primarily due to the estimated expected future tax rate applied. 42West On March 30, 2017, the Company entered into a purchase agreement (the 42West Purchase Agreement) pursuant to which the Company acquired 100% of the membership interests of 42West and 42West became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. 42West is an entertainment public relations agency offering talent, entertainment and targeted marketing, and strategic communication services. On January 1, 2019, the Company adopted ASC 842 and reclassified the favorable lease asset recognized at the date of acquisition to right-of-use asset. The unamortized balance of the favorable lease asset on January 1, 2019 was $277,878. The Company agreed to settle change of control provisions with certain 42West employees and former employees by offering cash payments in lieu of shares of Common Stock. As a result, the Company made payments in the aggregate amount of (i) $20,000 on February 23, 2018; (ii) $292,112 on March 30, 2018 and (iii) $361,760 of March 29, 2019 related to the change of control provisions. Also, in connection with the 42West acquisition, on March 30, 2017, the Company entered into put agreements (the Put Agreements) with each of the sellers. Pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Put Agreements, the Company has granted the sellers the right, but not the obligation, to cause the Company to purchase up to an aggregate of 1,187,087 of their respective shares of Common Stock received as consideration for the Companys acquisition of 42West for a purchase price equal to $9.22 per share during certain specified exercise periods set forth in the Put Agreements up until December 2020 (the Put Rights). During the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, the sellers exercised Put Rights with respect to an aggregate of 74,891 and 202,602 shares of Common Stock.

Variable Interest Entity, Primary Beneficiary, Does Not Hold Majority Voting Interest, Disclosures [Abstract] | |
VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES | NOTE 12 VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES VIEs are entities that, by design, either (1) lack sufficient equity to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support from other parties, or (2) have equity investors that do not have the ability to make significant decisions relating to the entitys operations through voting rights, or do not have the obligation to absorb the expected losses or the right to receive the residual returns of the entity. The most common type of VIE is a special-purpose entity (SPE). SPEs are commonly used in securitization transactions in order to isolate certain assets, and distribute the cash flows from those assets to investors. The legal documents that govern the transaction specify how the cash earned on the assets must be allocated to the SPEs investors and other parties that have rights to those cash flows. SPEs are generally structured to insulate investors from claims on the SPEs assets by creditors of other entities, including the creditors of the seller of the assets. The primary beneficiary of a VIE is required to consolidate the assets and liabilities of the VIE. The primary beneficiary is the party that has both (1) the power to direct the activities of an entity that most significantly impact the VIEs economic performance; and (2) through its interests in the VIE, the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE. To assess whether the Company has the power to direct the activities of a VIE that most significantly impact the VIEs economic performance, the Company considers all the facts and circumstances, including its role in establishing the VIE and its ongoing rights and responsibilities. To assess whether the Company has the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE, the Company considers all of its economic interests, including debt and equity investments, servicing fees, and derivative or other arrangements deemed to be variable interests in the VIE. This assessment requires that the Company apply judgment in determining whether these interests, in the aggregate, are considered potentially significant to the VIE. The Company performs ongoing reassessments of (1) whether entities previously evaluated under the majority voting-interest framework have become VIEs, based on certain triggering events, and therefore would be subject to the VIE consolidation framework, and (2) whether changes in the facts and circumstances regarding the Companys involvement with a VIE cause the Companys consolidation conclusion to change. The consolidation status of the VIEs with which the Company is involved may change as a result of such reassessments. Changes in consolidation status are applied prospectively with assets and liabilities of a newly consolidated VIE initially recorded at fair value unless the VIE is an entity which was previously under common control, which in that case is consolidated based on historical cost. A gain or loss may be recognized upon deconsolidation of a VIE depending on the amounts of deconsolidated assets and liabilities compared to the fair value of retained interests and ongoing contractual arrangements.

Stockholders' Equity Note [Abstract] | |
STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY | NOTE 13 STOCKHOLDERS EQUITY A. Preferred Stock The Companys Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation authorize the issuance of 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock. The Board of Directors has the power to designate the rights and preferences of the preferred stock and issue the preferred stock in one or more series. On February 23, 2016, the Company amended its Articles of Incorporation to designate 1,000,000 preferred shares as Series C Convertible Preferred Stock with a $0.001 par value which may be issued only to an Eligible Series C Preferred Stock Holder. On May 9, 2017, the Board of Directors of the Company approved an amendment to the Companys articles of incorporation to reduce the designation of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock to 50,000 shares with a $0.001 par value. The amendment was approved by the Companys shareholders on June 29, 2017, and the Company filed Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation with the State of Florida (the Second Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation) on July 6, 2017. Additionally, on July 6, 2017, the Second Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation eliminated previous designations of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, no shares of which are outstanding. Pursuant to the Second Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, each share of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock will be convertible into one share of Common Stock (one half of a share post-split on September 14, 2017) subject to adjustment for each issuance of Common Stock (but not upon issuance of common stock equivalents) that occurred, or occurs, from the date of issuance of the Series C Convertible Preferred Stock (the issue date) until the fifth (5th) anniversary of the issue date (i) upon the conversion or exercise of any instrument issued on the issued date or thereafter issued (but not upon the conversion of the Series C Convertible Preferred Stock), (ii) upon the exchange of debt for shares of Common Stock, or (iii) in a private placement, such that the total number of shares of Common Stock held by an Eligible Class C Preferred Stock Holder (based on the number of shares of Common Stock held as of the date of issuance) will be preserved at the same percentage of shares of Common Stock outstanding held by such Eligible Class C Preferred Stock Holder on the issue. An Eligible Class C Preferred Stock Holder means any of (i) DE LLC for so long as Mr. ODowd continues to beneficially own at least 90% of DE LLC and serves on its board of directors or other governing entity, (ii) any other entity in which Mr. ODowd beneficially owns more than 90%, or a trust for the benefit of others, for which Mr. ODowd serves as trustee and (iii) Mr. ODowd individually. Series C Convertible Preferred Stock will be convertible by the Eligible Class C Preferred Stock Holder only upon the Company satisfying one of the optional conversion thresholds. Specifically, a majority of the independent directors of the Board, in its sole discretion, must have determined that the Company accomplished any of the following (i) EBITDA of more than $3.0 million in any calendar year, (ii) production of two feature films, (iii) production and distribution of at least three web series, (iv) theatrical distribution in the United States of one feature film, or (v) any combination thereof that is subsequently approved by a majority of the independent directors of the Board based on the strategic plan approved by the Board. While certain events may have occurred that could be deemed to have satisfied this criteria, the independent directors of the Board have not yet determined that an optional conversion threshold has occurred. Except as required by law, holders of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock will have voting rights only if the independent directors of the Board determine that an optional conversion threshold has occurred. Only upon such determination will the Series C Convertible Preferred Stock be entitled or permitted to vote on all matters required or permitted to be voted on by the holders of Common Stock and will be entitled to that number of votes equal to three votes for the number of shares of Common Stock into which the Series C Convertible Preferred Stock may then be converted. The Certificate of Designation also provides for a liquidation value of $0.001 per share and dividend rights of the Series C Convertible Preferred Stock on parity with the Companys Common Stock. B.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract] | |
EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE | NOTE 14 EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted income per share: Three months ended June 30, Six months ended June 30, 2019 2018 2019 2018 Numerator Net(loss) income attributable to Dolphin Entertainment shareholders and numerator for basic earnings per share $ (891,867 ) $ 170,474 $ (769,259 ) $ 1,003,432 Change in fair value of put rights (251,350 ) (333,043 ) (1,778,376 ) (1,416,639 ) Numerator for diluted earnings per share $ (1,143,217 ) $ (162,569 ) $ (2,547,635 ) $ (413,207 ) Denominator Denominator for basic EPS - weighted-average shares 15,969,926 12,349,014 15,957,085 12,432,872 Effect of dilutive securities: Put rights 3,202,161 1,682,987 3,714,039 2,100,352 Denominator for diluted EPS - adjusted weighted-average shares 19,172,087 14,032,001 19,671,124 14,533,224 Basic (loss) income per share $ (0.06 ) $ 0.01 $ (0.05 ) $ 0.08 Diluted (loss) per share $ (0.06 ) $ (0.01 ) $ (0.13 ) $ (0.03 ) Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing income attributable to the shareholders of Common Stock (the numerator) by the weighted-average number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (the denominator) for the period. Diluted earnings per share assume that any dilutive equity instruments, such as put rights and convertible notes payable were exercised and outstanding Common Stock adjusted accordingly. In periods when the Put Rights are assumed to have been settled at the beginning of the period in calculating the denominator for diluted (loss) income per share, the related change in the fair value of Put Right liability recognized in the consolidated statements of operations for the period, is added back or subtracted from net income during the period. The denominator for calculating diluted income per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 assumes the Put Rights had been settled at the beginning of the period, and therefore, the related income due to the decrease in the fair value of the Put Right liability during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 is subtracted from net income. Other potentially dilutive equity instruments such as convertible notes payable, were not included in the calculation diluted (loss) income per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 because they were determined to be anti-dilutive. |

Warrants and Rights Note Disclosure [Abstract] | |
WARRANTS | NOTE 15 WARRANTS A summary of warrants outstanding at December 31, 2018 and issued, exercised and expired during the six months ended June 30, 2019 is as follows: Warrants: Shares Weighted Avg. Balance at December 31, 2018 2,727,253 $ 3.62 Issued 137,500 2.00 Exercised Expired (1,000,000 ) 2.29 Balance at June 30, 2019 1,864,753 $ 4.06 On November 4, 2016, the Company issued a Warrant G, a Warrant H and a Warrant I to T Squared (Warrants G, H and I). A summary of Warrants G, H and I issued to T Squared is as follows: Warrants Number of Shares Exercise Original Exercise Exercise Expiration Warrant G 750,000 $ Expired $ 10.00 $ 2.29 January 31, 2019 Warrant H 250,000 $ Expired $ 12.00 $ 2.29 January 31, 2019 Warrant I 250,000 $ 2.00 $ 14.00 $ 2.29 January 31, 2020 1,250,000 The Warrants G, H and I contain a round down provision providing that, in the event the Company sells grants or issues any Common Stock or options, warrants, or any instrument convertible into shares of Common Stock or equity in any other form at a deemed per share price below the then current exercise price per share of the Warrants G, H and I, then the then current exercise price per share for the warrants that are outstanding will be reduced to such lower price per share. Under the terms of the Warrants G, H and I, T Squared has the option to continually pay the Company an amount of money to reduce the exercise price of any of Warrants G, H and I until such time as the exercise price of Warrant G, H and/or I is effectively $0.02 per share. At such time when the T Squared has paid down the warrants to an exercise price of $0.02 per share or less T Squared will have the right to exercise the Warrants G, H and I via a cashless provision. Due to the existence of the round down provision, the Warrants G, H and I were carried in the consolidated financial statements as derivative liabilities at fair value. However, on July 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASU 2017-11 that states down round provisions no longer preclude equity classification when assessing whether the instrument is indexed to an entitys own stock. As a result, the Company used the modified retrospective approach and recorded a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings to classify the instruments as equity. Warrants G and H were not exercised and expired on January 31, 2019. In the Companys 2017 offering of its Common Stock, the Company issued 1,215,000 units, each comprising one share of Common Stock, and one warrant exercisable for one share of Common Stock for $4.74 per share. In addition to the units issued and sold in this 2017 offering, the Company also issued warrants to the underwriters to purchase up to an aggregate of 85,050 shares of Common Stock at a purchase price of $4.74 per share. On January 22, 2018, the underwriters exercised their over-allotment option with respect to 175,750 warrants to purchase Common Stock at a purchase price of $4.74 per share. In connection with the exercise of the over-allotment option, the Company issued to the underwriters warrants to purchase an aggregate of 1,453 shares of Common Stock at a purchase price of $4.74 per share. The Company determined that each of these warrants should be classified as equity and recorded the fair value of the warrants in additional paid in capital. On May 21, 2019, the Company issued warrants to purchase up to 137,500 shares of Common Stock at a purchase price of $2.00 per share to Lincoln Park related to the Lincoln Park Note (the Lincoln Park Warrants). The Lincoln Park Warrants become exercisable on the six-month anniversary and for a period of five years thereafter. If a resale registration statement covering the shares of Common Stock underlying the Lincoln Park Warrants is not effective and available at the time of exercise, the Lincoln Park Warrants may be exercised by means of a cashless exercise formula. The Lincoln Park Warrants had a fair value at issuance of $89,543. The Company determined that the Lincoln Park Warrants should be classified as equity and recorded the fair value of the warrants in additional paid in capital. |

The Company evaluated the provisions of the lease and determined that (i) it does not have the right to obtain the partially constructed underlying asset during the construction, (ii) the lessor does not have an enforceable right to payment for its performance to date (iii) the asset has an alternative use to the lessor and (iv) the Company does not own the land or the property improvements being constructed. As such this lease was not included in the right of use asset or lease liabilities on the Companys consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2019. The Company adopted ASU 2016-02 with respect to leases effective January 1, 2019. In July 2018, the FASB added an optional transition method which the Company elected upon adoption of the new standard. This allowed us to recognize and measure leases existing at January 1, 2019 without restating comparative information. |

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] | |
COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES | NOTE 19 COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Litigation On or about January 25, 2010, an action was filed by Tom David against Winterman Group Limited, Dolphin Digital Media (Canada) Ltd., Malcolm Stockdale and Sara Stockdale in the Superior Court of Justice in Ontario (Canada) alleging breach of a commercial lease and breach of a personal guaranty. On or about March 18, 2010, Winterman Group Limited, Malcolm Stockdale and Sara Stockdale filed a Statement of Defense and Crossclaim. In the Statement of Defense, Winterman Group Limited, Malcolm Stockdale and Sara Stockdale denied any liability under the lease and guaranty. In the Crossclaim filed against Dolphin Digital Media (Canada) Ltd., Winterman Group Limited, Malcolm Stockdale and Sara Stockdale seek contribution or indemnity against Dolphin Digital Media (Canada) Ltd. alleging that Dolphin Digital Media (Canada) agreed to relieve Winterman Group Limited, Malcolm Stockdale and Sara Stockdale from any and all liability with respect to the lease or the guaranty. On or about March 19, 2010, Winterman Group Limited, Malcolm Stockdale and Sara Stockdale filed a Third-Party Claim against the Company seeking contribution or indemnity against the Company, formerly known as Logica Holdings, Inc., alleging that the Company agreed to relieve Winterman Group Limited, Malcolm Stockdale and Sara Stockdale from any and all liability with respect to the lease or the guaranty. The Third-Party Claim was served on the Company on April 6, 2010. On or about April 1, 2010, Dolphin Digital Media (Canada) filed a Statement of Defense and Crossclaim. In the Statement of Defense, Dolphin Digital Media (Canada) denied any liability under the lease and in the Crossclaim against Winterman Group Limited, Malcolm Stockdale and Sara Stockdale, Dolphin Digital Media (Canada) seeks contribution or indemnity against Winterman Group Limited, Malcolm Stockdale and Sara Stockdale alleging that the leased premises were used by Winterman Group Limited, Malcolm Stockdale and Sara Stockdale for their own use. On or about April 1, 2010, Dolphin Digital Media (Canada) also filed a Statement of Defense to the Crossclaim denying any liability to indemnify Winterman Group Limited, Malcolm Stockdale and Sara Stockdale. The ultimate results of these proceedings against the Company cannot be predicted with certainty. On or about March 12, 2012, the Court served a Status Notice on all the parties indicating that since more than (2) years had passed since a defense in the action had been filed, the case had not been set for trial and the case had not been terminated, the case would be dismissed for delay unless action was taken within ninety (90) days of the date of service of the notice. The Company has not filed for a motion to dismiss and no further action has been taken in the case. The ultimate results of these proceedings against the Company could result in a loss ranging from 0 to $325,000. On March 23, 2012, Dolphin Digital Media (Canada) Ltd filed for bankruptcy in Canada. The bankruptcy will not protect the Company from the third-party claim filed against it. However, the Company has not accrued for this loss because it believes that the claims against it are without substance and it is not probable that they will result in loss. As of June 30, 2019, the Company had not received any other notifications related to this action. Incentive Compensation Plan On June 29, 2017, the shareholders of the Company approved the Dolphin Digital Media, Inc. 2017 Equity Incentive Plan (the 2017 Plan). The 2017 Plan was adopted as a flexible incentive compensation plan that would allow us to use different forms of compensation awards to attract new employees, executives and directors, to further the goal of retaining and motivating existing personnel and directors and to further align such individuals interests with those of the Companys shareholders. Under the 2017 Plan, the total number of shares of Common Stock reserved and available for delivery under the 2017 Plan (the Awards), at any time during the term of the 2017 Plan, will be 1,000,000 shares of Common Stock. The 2017 Plan imposes individual limitations on the amount of certain Awards, in part with the intention to comply with Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code). Under these limitations, in any fiscal year of the Company during any part of which the 2017 Plan is in effect, no participant may be granted (i) stock options or stock appreciation rights with respect to more than 300,000 shares, or (ii) performance shares (including shares of restricted stock, restricted stock units, and other stock based-awards that are subject to satisfaction of performance goals) that the Compensation Committee intends to be exempt from the deduction limitations under Section 162(m) of the Code, with respect to more than 300,000 shares, in each case, subject to adjustment in certain circumstances. The maximum amount that may be paid out to any one participant as performance units that the Compensation Committee intends to be exempt from the deduction limitations under Section 162(m) of the Code, with respect to any 12-month performance period is $1,000,000 (pro-rated for any performance period that is less than 12 months), and with respect to any performance period that is more than 12 months, $2,000,000. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company did not issue any Awards under the 2017 Plan. Employee Benefit Plan The Company has a 401(K) profit sharing plan that covers substantially all of its employees. The Company matches 100% of the first 3% contributed by the employee and then 50% up to a maximum of 4% contributed by the employee. The contribution is also limited by annual maximum amount determined by the Internal Revenue Service. The Companys contributions were $51,777 and $149,220 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019. Contributions to the 42West 401(K) plan that was in existence during the six months ended June 30, 2019, are at the discretion of management. The Companys contributions were $44,030, for the six months ended June 30, 2019. 42West adopted the Companys plan during the quarter ended June 30, 2019. Employment Contracts As a condition to the Viewpoint Purchase, two of the Viewpoint Shareholders, Carlo DiPersio and David Shilale entered into employment agreements with the Company to continue as employees after the closing of the Viewpoint Purchase. Mr. DiPersios employment agreement is through December 31, 2020 and the contract defines base compensation and a bonus structure based on Viewpoint achieving certain financial targets. Mr. Shilales employment agreement is for a period of three years from the Viewpoint Closing Date and the contract defines the base compensation and a commission structure based on Viewpoint achieving certain financial targets. The bonus for Mr. Shilale is determined at the sole discretion of the Companys board of directors and management. Neither agreement provides for guaranteed increases to the base salary. The employment agreements contain provisions for termination and as a result of death or disability and entitles the employee to vacations and to participate in all employee benefit plans offered by the Company. Each of the Members has entered into a four-year employment agreement with The Door, pursuant to which each Member has agreed not to transfer any shares of Common Stock received as consideration for the Merger (the Share Consideration) in the first year following the closing date of the merger, no more than 1/3 of such Share Consideration in the second year and no more than an additional 1/3 of such Share Consideration in the third year. During the year ended December 31, 2017, 42West renewed two senior level management employment agreements each with a three-year term. The contracts define each individuals base compensation along with salary increases. The employment agreements contain provisions for termination and as a result of death or disability and entitles each of the employees to bonuses, commissions, vacations and to participate in all employee benefit plans offered by the Company. A third senior management level employee with an employment contract with similar terms as described above, left 42West during the six months ended June 30, 2019. As a condition to the closing of the acquisition of 42West each of the three principal sellers entered into employment agreements (the Employment Agreements) with the Company and have agreed to continue as employees of the Company for a three-year term. Each of the Employment Agreements provides for a base salary with annual increases and contain provisions for termination and as a result of death or disability. During the term of the Employment Agreement, these persons are entitled to participate in all employee benefit plans, practices and programs maintained by the Company as well as are entitled to paid vacation in accordance with the Companys policy. Each of the Employment Agreements contains lock-up provisions pursuant to which each such person has agreed to certain transfer restrictions with respect to the shares of Common Stock received in connection with the acquisition of 42West. On April 5, 2018, the principal sellers of 42West signed amendments to their respective employment agreements that modified the annual bonus provisions. These amendments eliminated the rights of each of them (i) to be eligible to receive in accordance with the provisions of the Companys incentive compensation plan, a cash bonus for the calendar year 2017 if certain performance goals were achieved and (ii) to receive an annual bonus, for each year during the term of each such employment agreement, of $200,000 in shares of Common Stock based on the 30-day trading average closing price of such common stock. The amendment provides for each of the Principal Sellers to be eligible under the Companys incentive compensation plan to receive annual cash bonuses beginning with the calendar year 2018 based on the achievement of certain performance goals. No cash bonuses were paid during the six months ended June 30, 2019 to the principal sellers of 42West. Letter of Credit Pursuant to the lease agreements of the 42West New York and Los Angeles office locations, the Company is required to issue letters of credit to secure the leases. On July 24, 2018, the Company renewed the letter of credit issued by City National Bank for the 42West office space in New York. The letter of credit is for $677,354 and originally expired on August 1, 2018. This letter of credit renews automatically annually unless City National Bank notifies the landlord 60-days prior to the expiration of the banks election not to renew the letter of credit. The Company granted City National Bank a security interest in bank account funds totaling $677,354 pledged as collateral for the letter of credit. On June 29, 2018, the Company issued a letter of credit through Bank United, in the amount of $50,000, reducing the borrowing capacity under the Loan Agreement by that amount. The letters of credit commit the issuer to pay specified amounts to the holder of the letter of credit under certain conditions. If this were to occur, the Company would be required to reimburse the issuer of the letter of credit. The Company was not aware of any material claims relating to its outstanding letters of credit as of June 30, 2019. Motion Picture Industry Pension Accrual Until April 2, 2019, 42West was a contributing employer to the Motion Picture Industry Pension Individual Account and Health Plans (collectively the Plans), two multiemployer pension funds and one multiemployer welfare fund, respectively, that are governed by the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended. The Plans conducted an audit of 42Wests books and records for the period June 7, 2011 through August 20, 2016 in connection with the contribution obligations to the Plans. During 2018, 42West came to an agreement with the Plans to pay $314,256 over a twelve-month period. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, it paid an aggregate amount of $83,764 and $167,527, respectively, to the Plans related to this agreement. The remaining balance of $27,921 is recorded in other current liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2019. As of December 31, 2018, the Company had accrued $174,651 in its consolidated balance sheet related to the audit. |

Subsequent Events [Abstract] | |
SUBSEQUENT EVENTS | NOTE 20 SUBSEQUENT EVENTS On July 10, 2019, the Company paid $75,000 to one of the sellers of 42West for a Put Right that was exercised on June 24, 2019. On July 9, 2019, the Company issued a convertible promissory note agreement to a third-party investor and received $150,000. The convertible promissory note bears interest at a rate of 10% per annum and matures on July 9, 2021. The balance of the convertible promissory note and any accrued interest may be converted at the note holders option at any time at a purchase price based on the 30-day average closing market price per share of the Common Stock On July 17, 2019, the Company paid $100,000 to one of the sellers of 42West for a Put Right that was exercised on June 28, 2019. On July 23, 2019, pursuant to the terms of the securities purchase agreement with Lincoln Park, the Company issued Series B Warrants that entitle the holder to purchase up to 137,500 shares of Common Stock at $2.00 per share. The initial exercise date of the Series B Warrants is January 23, 2020 and can be exercised thereafter for a period of five years. On August 12, 2019, the Compensation Committee of the Companys Board of Directors unanimously approved a salary increase of $50,000 each to the Companys Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer effective January 1, 2019. In connection with the Put Agreement with 42West co-CEO Leslee Dart, on August 12, 2019, the Company entered into an amendment, waiver and exchange agreement (the Dart Exchange Agreement) pursuant to which Ms. Dart waived her Put Right with respect to 76,194 shares of Common Stock in exchange for a convertible note (the Dart Convertible Note) in the aggregate principal amount of $702,500, issued on the date of the Dart Exchange Agreement. The Dart Convertible Note is convertible at any time into shares of Common Stock (the Conversion Shares) at a conversion price (the Conversion Price) equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (i) the principal and interest being converted by (ii) the average closing price per share of Common Stock, as reported by the Nasdaq Stock Market (or such other exchange or quotation system on which the Common Stock is then traded) for the 30-trading days immediately prior to, but not including the date on which the holder delivers the notice of conversion. The Conversion Price subject to adjustments for stock splits, reclassifications and certain other transactions involving the Company or its securities. The Dart Convertible Note bears an interest rate of ten percent per annum. The Dart Convertible Note matures on August 12, 2020 unless earlier converted or redeemed. The Company may, at its option, prepay all or any portion of the outstanding balance under the Dart Convertible Note without penalty or premium. The Dart Convertible Note provides for customary events of default, which include (subject in certain cases to customary grace and cure periods), among others, the following: nonpayment of principal or interest; failure to maintain corporate existence; and certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency. Generally, if an event of default occurs and is continuing under the Dart Convertible Note, the holder may declare the principal of, and accrued interest on, the Dart Convertible Note due and payable. In the case of certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency, all amounts outstanding under the Dart Convertible Note, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon, would automatically become due and payable. The Dart Convertible Note was issued to the holder in reliance upon the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act, based upon the representation made by the holder that she is an accredited investor and that she is acquiring the Dart Convertible Note solely for the purposes of investment and not with a present view to, or for sale in connection with, any distribution or resale thereof. In addition, there was no general advertisement conducted by the Company in connection with the issuance of the Dart Convertible Note.

In addition, there was no general advertisement conducted by the Company in connection with the issuance of the Mayer Common Stock. |

Basis of Presentation | Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Dolphin, and all of its wholly owned subsidiaries, comprising Dolphin Films, Inc. (Dolphin Films), Cybergeddon Productions, LLC, Dolphin SB Productions LLC, Dolphin Max Steel Holdings, LLC (Max Steel Holdings), Dolphin JB Believe Financing, LLC, Dolphin JOAT Productions, LLC, 42West, The Door and Viewpoint. The Company enters into relationships or investments with other entities, and, in certain instances, the entity in which the Company has a relationship or investment may qualify as a variable interest entity (VIE). The Company consolidates a VIE in its financial statements if the Company is deemed to be the primary beneficiary of the VIE. The primary beneficiary is the party that has the power to direct activities that most significantly impact the operations of the VIE and has the obligation to absorb losses or the right to benefits from the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE. The Company has included in its condensed consolidated financial statements the following VIEs: Max Steel Productions, LLC, and JB Believe, LLC. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP) for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act), and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of the Companys management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been reflected in these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2019. The condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2018 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date but does not include all the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read together with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018. |
Reclassifications | Reclassifications Reclassifications have been made to our condensed consolidated financial statements for the prior year period to conform to classifications used in 2019. |
Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. The most significant estimates made by management in the preparation of the financial statements relate to the expected revenue and costs for investments in digital and feature film projects; estimates of sales returns and other allowances, provisions for doubtful accounts and impairment assessments for investment in feature film projects, goodwill and intangible assets. Actual results could differ materially from such estimates. |
Update to Significant Accounting Policies | Update to Significant Accounting Policies Our significant accounting policies are detailed in "Note 3: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" within Item 8 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018. Significant changes to our accounting policies as a result of adopting ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) Leases In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at the lease commencement date. In addition to the Companys lease agreements, we review all material new vendor arrangements for potential embedded lease obligations. The asset balance related to operating leases is presented within right-of-use (ROU) asset on the Companys consolidated balance sheet. The current and noncurrent balances related to operating leases are presented as Lease liability, in their respective classifications, on the Companys consolidated balance sheet. The lease liability is recognized based on the present value of the remaining fixed lease payments discounted using the Companys incremental borrowing rate as of January 1, 2019. The ROU asset is calculated based on the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments paid to the lessor at or before the commencement date (i.e. prepaid rent) and initial direct costs incurred by Dolphin and excluding any lease incentives received from the Lessor. The lease term for purposes of lease accounting may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option as of the commencement date of the lease. For operating leases, the lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company accounts for its lease and non-lease components as a single component, and therefore both are included in the calculation of lease liability recognized on the consolidated balance sheets. See Note 18 for further discussion. The Company did not adopt any other accounting pronouncement during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019. |
Recent Accounting Pronouncements | Recent Accounting Pronouncements Accounting Guidance not yet adopted In March 2019, the FASB issued new guidance on film production costs ASU 2019-02, (Entertainment Films- Other Assets Film Costs (Subtopic 926-20)). The new guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 and interim periods within those fiscal years and may be adopted early. The new guidance aligns the accounting for the production costs of an episodic series with those of a film by removing the content distinction for capitalization. It also addresses presentation, requires new disclosures for produced and licensed content and addresses cash flow classification for license agreements to better reflect the economics of an episodic series. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the new guidance on its consolidated financial statements. In October 2018, the FASB issued new guidance on consolidation ASU 2018-17, Consolidation (Topic 810): Targeted Improvements to Related Party Guidance for Variable Interest Entities. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 and interim periods within those fiscal years and should be applied retrospectively with a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings at the beginning of the earliest period presented. Early adoption is permitted. The new guidance provides that indirect interests held through related parties in common control arrangements should be considered on a proportional basis for determining whether fees paid to decision makers and service providers are variable interests. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the new guidance on its consolidated financial statements. In August 2018, the FASB issued new guidance on fair value measurement (ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure FrameworkChanges to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement) In June 2016, the FASB issued new guidance on measurement of credit losses (ASU 2016-13, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments) with subsequent amendments issued in November 2018 (ASU 2018-19) and April 2019 (ASU 2019-04). This update changes the accounting for credit losses on loans and held-to-maturity debt securities and requires a current expected credit loss (CECL) approach to determine the allowance for credit losses. It is applicable to trade accounts receivable. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 with a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the year of adoption. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the new guidance on its consolidated financial statements. |
