FAQ
Script Assessment Service
I’ve noticed that your service has changed. Why?
I’ve had my script assessed where do I go from here?
The AWG has some exceptional full members, but they aren’t assessors. Is there any chance one of them would take a look at my work?
The assessor I’ve been matched with isn’t a credited writer – why are they giving me advice?
Why can’t I have the assessor I asked for?
Why do I need to provide a synopsis, etc?
What should my script look like?
How long can I expect the process to be?
I’ve just received my report, and it doesn’t mention my dialogue, or that really funny scene where the chicken crosses the road and... Why not?
Which tier is appropriate for me to choose?
Is a script assessment the same thing as script editing?
What’s a script assessment for?
Copyright
Can I copyright an idea?
Can I copyright a name?
Why should I register my script?
Is my copyright recognised overseas?
If I am sending my script to the USA, do I need to register it over there if it is registered in Australia?
How long does my copyright last?
Producers
How do I find a producer for my screenplay?
How do I approach producers and production companies?
Resources
How should I format my script?
What is a Synopsis?
