UPCOMING WORKSHOPS
UNDERSTANDING BASIC OPTION AGREEMENTS
For Emerging Producers & Writers
Wednesday, July 2, 2025
4:00pm – 5:30pm PT
In this 90-minute workshop, we’ll break down the option agreement, one of the most misunderstood tools in early development.
Whether you’re a writer trying to protect your original screenplay or novel, or a producer seeking to secure the rights to someone else’s, this workshop gives you the clarity and language you need to move forward with confidence.
You’ll Learn:
• What every option agreement must include to be enforceable
• The difference between a shopping agreement and an option agreement
• What reasonable option fees, purchase prices and renewal terms might look like
• How to avoid vague terms that stall or kill your project later
• What a “reversion clause” is—and why it matters
• How to structure fair, professional purchase terms and renewal clauses
• Smart negotiation tactics for both sides of the table
Especially Valuable For:
• Producers acquiring scripts, books, or other Intellectual Property (IP)
• Writers being offered option or shopping agreements
• Anyone preparing to pitch a project or secure funding
Learn how to protect your project, your relationships, and your future.
