Professional Studies- Useful Reports

To help build evidence and key points to prove important issues raised in my report, I thought it would be useful to search for existing reports to are relevant to my topic of screenwriting and that could be used in my report. I previously looked into writers guilds and discovered they publish yearly reports on the organisation and a report called "Schedule of Minimums" that look into the minimum salaries for writers. There annual report on employment and earnings can be found here:

This report includes important statistics that will be useful to my report, like the amount of members who are reporting earnings from screenwriting.

Another interesting report I discovered was developed by BFI (British Film Institute) and looks in to the film industries statistics and the film economy in the UK and international. They also offer a statistical yearbook that looks back at all the films of the year through the important numbers they generate. These reports can be found here:

A company by the name of Film L.A. Inc have a report into feature film production in 2013 and has numbers on the amount of films released and the popularity of filming locations which may prove to be useful in some parts of the report and should be considered just in case. This report can be found here:

Of course as well as these reports, I will be conducting my own primary research by developing a questionnaire and distributing it across screenwriting forums to achieve the best responses that will help my report. The questionnaire will have important and relevant questions that are personal to the report and the results will be used to argue its case in the report.
