File entitled "Les exceptions et limitations en matière de droit d’auteur".

The professional organisation for screenwriters, the Netwerk Scenarioschrijvers (Screenwriter Network), aims to promote the position of the screenwriter.

In the last few years italian audiovisual industry was deeply impacted by the general crisis. Investments decreased dramatically. A huge percentage of screenwriters got unemployed, lots of them simply change their occupation.
In this environment, Writers Guild Italia tried at its best to obtain new opportunities for italian screenwriters. Our goal was – and is – to change the producers' and broadcasters' approach to the industry.

The guild: The Danish Writers Guild represents about 350 members, which are all professional screenwriters, playwrights and translators. We are continuously experiencing a small increase in the number of members.

We have talked about this with our CMOs and they are getting money from the traditional broadcasters for online rights, but it is not a proportional amount based on visits and actual advertisement income, but an estimated bonus added to the traditional broadcasting remuneration rights. Streaming platforms are not paying yet.
