The New Zealand Writers Guild (NZWG) is a New Zealand trade union which represents writers in the fields of film, television, radio, theatre, video and multi-media. It provides services, events, networks, lobbying, and legal advice to those in the film and television industry. The Guild is affiliated to three major union organisations, the New Zealand Council of Trade Unions, the International Affiliation of Writers Guilds and the Union Network International. ==Description== The Guild's members include most of the professional script writers working in New Zealand. There were 507 registered members of the Guild as of 22 May 2008. The Guild was founded in 1975. It was initially established to set minimum rates and conditions for writers working in television. It has expanded to encompass all script writing fields. The NZWG lobbies government to improve conditions for writers, comments about matters relevant to writers and represents the interests of writers when dealing with funding bodies and other industry organisations. The guild also publishes and provides information and advice to writers. Some of the services offered include negotiating on script credits, advice for (contracts ) with producers, (minimum rates for writers ) and a (script registration service ) to help writers to protect their ideas. The NZWG provides members with a weekly e-bulletin. Members are also provided with access to the (NZWG library ) which includes film and television scripts, books on screen writing and industry publications from around the world. Recent successful initiatives include NZWG Seed Grants - providing NZ writers with support to develop scripts, and the annual (SWANZ Awards ) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「New Zealand Writers Guild」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
