I am looking to turn it into a feature but looking for someone to write the feature. How do i protect my idea before I hand it over to another writer? I don't have a treatment for the feature, all I have is my short. Any advice would be appreciated

Expand commentMarvin is oh so right. I'm also a book publisher and cringe every time an author sends me their entire manuscript. Similar situation; your idea can be easily stolen and there isn't much you can do about it. And if you'd like to go a step further, consider this... it's even easier and often more profitable to steal an idea from someone and sell it overseas and/or make the film or show overseas so the threat of a concept being stolen is very real and easily concealed. Do your best to write the script yourself and protect that instead or scope out writers to script ideas you aren't attached to and learn script writing that way and then you can write the one you care about yourself if you are looking for a writer because you don't know how to write a script. Or you could scope out writers with ideas you aren't attached to until you find one you can trust with an idea you do care about but ... the family of a serial killer is always shocked so.... you think you know someone .... :)
Handy advice T Sanders.... I appreciate your thoughts on sending out full manuscripts....
You can't copyright an idea, but you can copyright a treatment. Remember to always track who you give what, so that in the event you feel someone stole your idea you can justify why. You do this by nu...
Expand commentYou can't copyright an idea, but you can copyright a treatment. Remember to always track who you give what, so that in the event you feel someone stole your idea you can justify why. You do this by numbering every copy you distribute. Treatment's 1-3 sent to Company ABC. Treatment's 4-6 sent to Company XYZ and so on. If you need a crash course on the basics of film, go here. http://www.webfilmschool.com/ Dov is the best! More importantly... he's fun!
