Minimum salaries for union screenwriters are set by the Writers Guild of America. Non-union screenwriters may write for free; an established screenwriter may write for millions of dollars. ==Definitions== *Against: A word used to describe a script's unproduced price relative to its value if approved for production—for example, if a script is sold for $300,000, but the writer gains an extra $200,000 if it leads to production, the screenwriter's salary is described as "$300,000 against $500,000" * Option: If a script is not purchased, it may be optioned. An option is money paid in exchange for the right (the "option") to produce—and therefore to purchase outright—a screenplay, treatment, or other work within a certain period. * Feature assignment: The writer writes the script on assignment under contract with a studio, production company, or individual * Pitch: The writer works up a five- to twenty-minute presentation of a prospective movie and presents it to buyers in a short meeting * Rewriting: The writer rewrites someone else's script for pay. The writer pitches his "take", much like he would an original pitch * Spec script: Short for "speculative". The writer writes the script (original or someone else's idea) without being paid, and, subsequently, tries to sell it. 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「Screenwriter's salary」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
