Hello all, glad to find the board. I've got a script that an Indie company is extremely excited about and wants to option. In this case (surprise) they're seeking deferred payment, not only from myself as the writer, but also the cast, etc. After meeting and discussing things with them, I do feel extremely comfortable that they'll do the script justice and after seeing some of their other work, I feel that they're very competent in a lot of aspects of not only producing the script, but also marketing and distribution. The nitty-gritty question is that I'm uncertain of what to ask for back-end profits and points, as the payment is deferred. Is there any standard for something like this?
Any help to a newbie would be greatly appreciated, and I thank you in advance.
