+ | |||
+ | ^ Pitch | An idea for an upcoming project that has been presented and sold to a production company, which agrees to develop it. | | ||
+ | ^ Optioned Property | A piece of literary work (book, short story, play, news article, etc.) where the exclusive rights to purchase the property are currently held by a production entity for consideration to develop into a feature length film or television project for a defined period of time. | | ||
+ | ^ Treatment/ | ||
+ | ^ Script | Completed, copy written manuscript, which has been picked up by a production entity for development. A script may take the form of a screenplay, shooting script, lined script, continuity script, or a spec script. | | ||
+ | ^ Turnaround | A project, which was previously picked up by a production entity, but has been dropped and is currently in a state of limbo allowing the producers to set up the project with another studio. | | ||
