Work Made for Hire (WMFH)

If you were hired to write the screenplay, that screenplay may be a Work Made for Hire. Under this rule, the law considers the hiring party to be the “author” of the screenplay and, therefore, also the initial copyright owner. The Copyright Office will only accept registration applications from the author(s) or copyright owner(s).


If you still have questions about screenplay registration, you may find answers in our blog on this subject. You can also email info@rightsclick.com.
