12-Step Screenwriting: Week 9 - WGA Registration vs. U.S. Copyright

It's time for another episode of the Bitter Script Reader YouTube series!

This is the ninth chapter of a 12-part series designed to guide and motivate a writer to complete a screenplay within three months.  Recognizing that I had an opportunity to reach a new audience via YouTube, I decided to start with the basics.

This week's video weighs the merits of registering your script with the Writers Guild of America vs. copyrighting it through the U.S. Copyright office.



For WGA registration, go here.

To register a copyright, go here. "You want the Form PA" PDF.
