Screenwriting : US Copyright Registrations by Julie Gervais

You upload a PDF of the work at the end of the process - no loglines or synopses. If I recall, it's after paying the fees. When you say "received the copyrights" do you mean a copyright registration form mailed to you from the LOC or an email stating the time of receipt?

A suggestion to go back into ECO to check the status. You might need to upload or inadvertently chose to send a physical copy which you should do.

E Langley is absolutely right. A copy of the work needs to be deposited with the Copyright Office to complete an application. This doesn’t always happen at the same time (such as where a completed film is too large to upload through the electronic portal and is mailed in on DVD instead).

Thank you so much I will double check this stuff -- am I the only one who finds the eCO site difficult to navigate?

It can be daunting at first. It's not the most user-friendly site I've ever seen.

Good luck.

Thank you, appreciate the time.

Julie: I've registered 50 screenplays, and the info you received is correct.

Welcome, Julie.

I registered my script before I sent it in to the East Hot Coffee, Alabama Quilting Bee and Screenwriting Competition. I placed quarterfinalist.

E Langley Congratulations!

Everything I've registered with eCO has required me to upload the script, pitch deck, or treatment. There should have been an option to upload your work.

Thanks Dustin and all!
