  14. Registration and notice are no longer required for copyright protection, but there are benefits to doing so and I recommend it.
  15. #Film Finance mistake: Not having a realistic budget before you start raising money for your film. Surprised how many make this mistake.
  16. Q from #screenwriter-Should I sign a submission release? No. Studios don't buy from people they don't know. Develop your network instead.
  17. Q:What the difference between 'based on' and 'inspired by'? Maybe nothing. If you're basing your work on someone else's, you need rights.
  18. Fantastic follow up to our #Screenwriting Expo presentation. #filmmakers - see what we're offering the "losers" http://bit.ly/3hZ554
  19. Congratulations to the winners of our drawing for the Film Law DVD set at Screenwriting Expo! http://bit.ly/fwLI7
