So here’s the deal. A prodco you’ve heard of is going to option my spec for money. They are a signatory. I don’t have a “quote.” I’ve sold a pitch for about half of scale.
So what should I ask for? (Yes, I’m going to talk to my lawyer) 10% of the minimum plus 10%? Budget is probably 40-50M. I’m figuring the old 10% of X% of the budget isn’t a thing for newer writers? Basically I don’t want to go in asking for 10% of 1% (40k) and they’re like “who’s this a$$hole?” when they are thinking 10% of minimum.
Anyone have any stories to share on this? Thanks!!
