If he manages to sell a screenplay to a major studio, will he/she be allowed on set, or to speak with the actors that will star in their movie? How about if the screenplay isn't aiming very high and it's being bought by a beginning company tight on budget and with actors that aren't yet that...

I just had these ideas the other days, but I thought to ask here first about it. I wrote a few screenplays(both short and feature), but I know they aren't written at a professional level and couldn't stand a chance. My idea was to post a thread in the Market section of this forum, where I would...

Here is how I thought to describe it(before the final battle): He turns himself into a four-headed dragon. It is red and black. Its teeth are like sharp swords. One head breaths fire. Another one breaths ice. The third breaths poison. The last one fires red lightning. 1)What is the right way to...

I read about option agreements and some websites said different things. Some said that, if a producer doesn`t buy your screenplay, you keep the option money and can submit it to someone else. Other said that if you want your screenplay back(the ability to send it to someone else for...

I read on a webpage that neither bad, nor good scripts ever get made. They said that you must have a ”killer script”, unlike 99% others. Could you please explain what does it mean? Thanks for answering!:)
