Screenburn Originals

Licence terms

Every sale carries the same terms.

Licence
Exclusive and worldwide. The licence lets you produce the vertical format, and remakes of it, in all languages and in perpetuity.
The author keeps
Copyright, and the film, TV, book and other rights.
Sequel
You have first refusal on a sequel for twelve months.
Reversion
If you shoot nothing within 24 months, the rights return to the author.
Warranty
We warrant the originality of the script. Our liability under that warranty stops at the price you paid.
How the scripts are written
Screenburn Originals are written under Screenburn's editorial direction using the Screenburn method, which includes AI writing tools for analysis, structure, writing, and other practices. Screenburn owns the copyright; the pen name in the credit is a house credit.
Credit
On screen: "Written by [name]. A Screenburn Original."
Law
English law governs the licence.
Price
A fixed price per script, by card or invoice.

Sales are final once the script is delivered. A wrong file is replaced.
