You can also receive 24 units for a long-term project, such as a story bible for a series that is at least four hours long. A Rewrite: If you rewrite a script, you receive half the units you would receive if you wrote the entire script.
Therefore, writing a film script nets you 24 units, so a rewrite of that same script would net you 12 units. Therefore, a feature screenplay polish is worth six units. An Option: Many scripts are written and optioned but never produced. In this instance, a writer receives half the number of units normally allotted, up to eight units. So a feature script is worth 24 units produced, but optioned would be half of 24, putting the writer at 12 units.
However, the maximum for a year is eight, so ultimately, the writer receives eight units. If the option expires and the writer nabs an option from another production company, they do not receive another eight credits. When the script finally sells, the writer will receive the remaining units to hit 24 units total. Ultimately, if you are overwhelmed by the process of understanding the units, or even the payments , you can always call the WGA who can help walk you through the process.
