The Entertainment Script Clearance, Its Requirements And Purpose

By Linda Hall


A lot of stuff has been written over time, and because of availability or accessibility, online or in print, concerns like plagiarism, copyright infringement, and libel are often in play. Many if not most of these are accidental and have been done with no malice. Laws today however will say that producing works with these contents could make the producers liable.

Liability lies in having new materials in use, which involve creative work for the word. There can be a lot of hassle involved in avoiding or preventing these liabilities, something that entertainment script clearance addresses well. This enables any script that will be used for TV, theater, film and like sectors to have clearance that eliminates the possibility of the said liabilities.

Entertainment companies have to be careful about their content, and the editorial policies of any one company will require the services of experts in this work. Clearing a script requires much research, and knowledge about laws that apply. Also, they are usually the second to the last level of preparation reliant on a script becoming part of a program, show, movie and such.

After the clearance process is done, producers or directors could run them through the program or programs that need the script. Theater also benefits from this process, and the experts provide a way for everyone to cut time from the long process that could be required of writers. This is an intensive one which fortunately many tools available.

Online, for instance, should be an entire world for assisted searches and almost immediate comparison for duplicate content. All lines are words could be checked fast and thoroughly, and more apps could be used. The apps are now standard and provide great ways of checking content, and this is not the only sector which could use such kind of software.

Most directors are impatient, and processing a manuscript is something that they could really delay things. Scripts are needed there, for the entire crew, cast or program managers. Without these, nothing could run in the entertainment industry, and when time stops here, money is likely to be lost big time.

Producers may also look at the money or time lost in the process. Failure in this way will even make any project that much nearer to canning or abandonment. There have been many projects that were shut down in this way, never got into any sort of production level, or passed up and taken on years later with folks who gambled on them.

Many of the things done in this job will not actually be very hard to accomplish. Although these require good experience and the general sense of creativity and knowledge about movies or literature, and related fields. These would be varied, but all will use words as the primary medium.

Things like libeling, plagiarism and copyright infringement are real problems when and if an entertainment program is put up. There have been times that these passed the censorship, proofreading or editorial work. The sector for clearing scripts thus provides an important service for a money making industry.
