Free Comedy Writer
Service Agreement
You crack a joke, the studio loves it, but if someone else claims you stole the punchline, their lawyers will burn your savings account down to a pile of ash. Never work for free; otherwise, you're just paying your client to waste your time and risk getting sued.
Pro Contractor Tip
Stick a substantial 'Kill Fee' in every agreement so when the client scraps the script, you still get paid for moving the dirt.
Why use a written agreement?
Handshake deals are risky. As a Comedy Writer, "scope creep" is your biggest enemy. A clear agreement ensures everyone agrees on the deliverables before money changes hands.
