Amazon Studios
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Amazon Studios is Amazon.com's division that develops comics, movies and television shows from online submissions and crowd-sourced feedback.[1] It was started in late 2010.[1] Content would be distributed through Amazon Instant Video, Amazon’s digital video streaming service, and a competitor to services like Netflix and Hulu.[2] For film, Warner Bros. is a partner.[3]Contents
Film and television
Scripts for television and film are submitted through the web.[4] They are reviewed and rated by other readers in a crowd-source fashion, and/or by Amazon staff.[4] Scripts may be submitted with the option to allow other people to modify them.[5] In addition there is a separate submission method for professional writers (Writers Guild of America members) with separate rules.[5]Amazon has 45 days to choose a submitted script. If a project is chosen for development the writer receives $10,000.[4] If a developed script is selected for distribution as a full-budget series, the creator gets $55,000 as well as "up to 5 percent of Amazon’s net receipts from toy and t-shirt licensing, and other royalties and bonuses." [6]
Amazon Studios had received more than 10,000 feature screenplay submissions as of September 2012,[1] and 2,700 television pilots as of March 2013.[7] 23 films and 26 television series were in active development but none had reached the production stage (1 March 2013).[1][4]
