I have a question.

I'm about to complete a set of 7 scripts for a mini-series (or a serial, if you're British). Would I need to copyright/WGA register each script individually or can I have one file will all parts in it?

Because if it's seperate, that would kinda stink. We're talking about $148 in that case, or over $300 if I do both.

One of the selections for material type at the WGA is "series". That's what we use when we register our stuff. One price for the entirety.

You should be able to copyright the entire series as one work with Part/Chapter 1, 2, 3, etc.

I cannot imagine why you could not.

One big, fat work.
