The Illinois Film Office is part of the Illinois Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity (DCEO), the Governor’s lead economic development agency.
“It’s my pleasure to welcome Betsy Steinberg to the Illinois Film Office. Her extensive industry expertise, both on the creative and business side, will be valuable as we build on the momentum we’ve generated over the last three years and continue growing the film industry in Illinois. With our tremendous cities, locations, actors and crews, Illinois has everything Hollywood productions are looking for, and, with our recently expanded tax credit, Illinois is as competitive as ever. And my thanks to Brenda Sexton for her years of service and dedication in developing this important industry in Illinois,” Gov. Blagojevich said. Read more at commerce.state.il.us.
The title of Option is a defined factor
When a creative entity, such as producer, artist, or studio, discovers a property and evaluates the rights status, they will, in most cases, attempt to negotiate an 'option' for the rights. An option is the right to acquire ownership of an intellectual property for a pre-determined amount of time. Size of the option payment often determines length of the agreement as well as how many forms of the rights will be included in the deal. While most option payments are subject to negotiation, script deals often work out to an even percentage of the purchase price.
