Anyone already did or is thinking of submitting to Jordan Peele's Monkeypaw Productions after the announcement this week? If so, is Copyrighting your script enough to protect you? Here is the link. https://monkeypawproductions.com/submit

Hmmm...have a careful read of T&Cs’ and make sure you are happy with them before submitting. I did and decided not to apply as didn’t like some of their wording. But each to their own! :)

Does seem a little over written and ambiguous. On one hand they’re saying you have no rights then on the other they’re saying only to parts of the story if they rewrite it? Am i right?

Martina, I'm with you on this matter... It's a little stinky. Personally, I'd steer clear.

It sounds like they can use parts of your screenplay to make a new one and you don’t even get the email saying thank you. I think it’s not professional, they either commit to pick one (or none) and at least give credits for the original story. Just my thoughts, but if you feel it’s okay, go with it :)
