Mayor Bloomberg And Mpaa Unveil Anti-Video Piracy Campaign
Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg today unveiled a public awareness campaign featuring a series of print and broadcast advertisements designed to combat the creation, distribution, and sale of illegally recorded films in New York City. Featuring PSAs to run on TV and in movie theaters and several bus shelters advertisements, the campaign sends the message that movie piracy harms our economy, kills jobs and impacts all New Yorkers. The Mayor also signed legislation that strengthens the penalty for illegally videotaping a film from a violation to a misdemeanor with increased jail time. The campaign and bill signing follow the October 2006 announcement of the City's three-pronged approach to combating piracy: tougher legislation, stepped-up enforcement and increased public awareness. The Mayor was joined by Police Commissioner Ray Kelly, Criminal Justice Coordinator John Feinblatt, Film, Theatre & Broadcasting Commissioner Katherine Oliver, Councilman David Yassky, MPAA Vice President and Director of U.S. Anti-Piracy Operations Mike Robinson, Tribeca Film Festival founder Jane Rosenthal, and Director Jay Roach at the announcement and bill signing at City Hall.

Treatment is one of the starting blocks in the development process
The treatment takes the outline a step further, adding depth to character and story by filling in missing blanks. The treatment's main purpose is to tell the complete story before setting it in script form. Most are written in prose and range from ten to twenty pages. The treatment is the best place to hammer out initial story and character problems. Unless a script is sold on spec, most buyers require a treatment (or very detailed) outline from its writers before commencement of the actual screenplay. If financed independently, the treatment's often a part of the initial fundraising package.
