What are screenwriters experiences? Have you ever been paid for your options?
Absolutely. As a rule of thumb I figure the option fee to be 10% of the suggested/intended/agreed purchase price. I have seen option agreements where if they do not conduct the purchase or go to production the option fee must be refunded. I've never signed one of those.
For real, wow, Phil. Hope to never see one of those options. I haven't sold or optioned anything yet. Hope to do so this year with my comedy, Belly Bump.
I have sold my script for a peanut
I once knew a novelist who'd written this terrific alternate/parallel reality history novel everyone loved he used to make a regular check every few years because someone would option the thing figure out it was impossible to adapt then the rights would go back to him.
Hello Marvin, I have yet to find a literary agent to help pitch my scripts/screenplays. So I have not yet gotten paid for my writing (optioning). But I would like too. Good luck.

Hi Harry.. Are you familiar with the Scripped contests -- it was the Romance Redux contest.. and script is called:Here's Lookin' at You, Kid..
Hello Karen, there are no dumb questions. Important to have a good director, assistant director, cinematographer, sound person, script supervisor, gopher or cable wrangler, craft services, great lighting person(s), and patients. Good luck. Can't wait to see the finished film.

Expand commentIf you have a small budget to hire a small crew... Pre Production -- Find an EXPERIENCED Assistant Director -- who can also serve as a Production Manager -- He/She will reach out to 2nd AD who will reach out to PA's etc. Production -- Find an EXPERIENCED cinematographer with a GRIP TRUCK. He/She will get the support based on the scope of your project including Sound, Set Designers, etc. Post Production -- Find an EXPERIENCED editor who will help you find the right resources for color correction, foley, etc etc Oh and find a good craft services person because a FED CREW will be a HAPPY CREW :-) Good luck!

Expand commentHey Matt. I just addressed this to you on FB. Seems as if you are posting this everywhere, so allow me to comment here as well. Trending criteria is a work in progress. There are nearly 100,000 people on this site, and literally tens of thousands of posts a day. It's easier said than done as to how the trending posts are compiled. Having said that, we're fine tuning all the time and are working on this as we speak. Remember...There are only 2 full time people who work on this site....and the site is free. There is a ton to cover every day...I ask you to be patient. Thanks. RB
Marc, the actor in the chair is Rick Lohman.
Although is a small piece of lens, but very comfortable and natural good negotiator, Gary Craig.
