  • Pay for a co-writer?

    Both of my movies had a co-writer for them. He says if my movies sell he wants to be paid the WGA standard payment for rewriting a script. How do I ensure that this is done?

    What does it say in your agreement? I've had one for everything I've written with another person. You can find them on this site.

      NB: this is not legal advice. get a lawyer to draft or review any actual contract/agreement before you sign

      but typically a clause to the effect of: ". . . and in no event shall [payment term] be less than the applicable minimum payment under the current Minimum Basic Agreement of the Writer's Guild West for the work described above"
