The Federation of Screenwriters in Europe has published a survey of European screenwriters’ income in 2012.

The survey was undertaken to inform a series of workshops for screenwriters’ guilds in European countries entitled Freedom of Association and Collective Bargaining in the Digital Economy. The online survey, asking seven questions, was distributed by 21 European screenwriters’ guilds belonging to the FSE (including WGGB).

Seven hundred professional screenwriters for both TV and film in over 25 countries responded and provided information about their income in 2012. The anonymous survey provides factual information to illuminate the discussion about authors remuneration.
