🛡️ Intellectual Property Stewardship

​

"Our Stories Are Protected with Integrity and Foresight"

​

At Film For Good Productions, we take the integrity and authorship of our creative work seriously — not only as artists, but as responsible stewards of the stories we develop. Our IP assets, including original screenplays, visual concepts, and film prototypes, are secured through an internationally recognized legal structure designed for resilience, clarity, and fairness.

​​

💼 Why We Use a Dutch STAK (Stichting Administratiekantoor)

​​

To safeguard the long-term creative and legal integrity of our film projects, we’ve chosen to place ownership of all intellectual property within a Dutch STAK, a civil law foundation designed to:

​​

• Separate economic value from legal control

• Shield core IP from outside risk or misuse

• Maintain a transparent, timestamped chain of title

• Enable licensing without ever exposing ownership

​​

This structure is used by multinationals, family offices, and major media producers throughout Europe and beyond. It allows us to create with confidence — and share our ideas with trusted partners — knowing the legal footing is secure.

​​

🔐 What This Means Practically

​​

All creative work developed under our banner is:

​​

Feature                                                                        Description

​​

Legally Owned:                                 By a Dutch STAK, a neutral holding foundation governed by                                                                       fiduciary duties and legal clarity

Timestamped & Registered:         At multiple levels: USCO (US Copyright), WGA (Writers Guild),                                                                    and international proof chains

Licensed, Never Exposed:               Any trailer, pitch, or script is only licensed temporarily —                                                                             never given up or assigned away

Protected by Counsel:                         All materials are managed in tandem with experienced                                                                               contingency-based IP attorneys

​

🧾 Legal Chain of Title

​​

Every asset within our slate is backed by an unbroken chain of documentation, including:

​​

• Script drafts and generation logs

• AI attribution and authorship memos

• Voiceover and treatment copyright registrations

• Trailer metadata, timestamps, and export records

• USCO and WGA certificates

• Legal disclaimers issued prior to any disclosures

​​

This package ensures that our authorship is not just claimed — it is proven, recorded, and ready for review by legal professionals at any time.

​​

🤝 Our Invitation

​​

We welcome genuine collaboration and ethical industry engagement. If you’re a studio, investor, distributor, or creative team interested in working with us, we’re happy to open the vault — under mutual NDAs and clear licensing agreements.

​​

For anyone unclear about the status of our materials or the legal protection surrounding them, we encourage respectful inquiry. Our legal counsel is fully briefed and ready to address any concerns proactively and constructively.

🕊️ Creating with Integrity

​​

Our goal is never to intimidate — only to create from a place of integrity, protect the rights of those who labor to imagine new worlds, and ensure that every creative contributor is treated fairly. That begins with clarity, preparation, and lawful stewardship.

​​​

Thank you for respecting our process.

​​​​​​

✅ IP Protection Checklist (Pre-STAK Formation)

​

For 3 Premium Studio-Grade Feature Films: 2 Thrillers + 1 Comedy

​

To ensure bulletproof protection of all creative and legal rights before incorporating our Dutch STAK (Stichting Administratiekantoor), this checklist outlines the critical steps taken during development to safeguard ownership, prepare for investor confidence, and enable a seamless future transfer of rights.

​

🔐 1. Lock in Original Creative Ownership

​

• Timestamp All Assets: Secure creation dates for each screenplay, treatment, concept, and visual work using:

  • Email-to-self logs

  • Cloud-based edit histories

  • WIPO PROOF or blockchain tools (OpenTimestamps, Binded, etc.)

• Track Editable File History: Maintain source files in Final Draft, Word, and PDF with creator metadata intact.

• Organize Authorship Logs: Include prompt logs and AI attribution memos (if any) to distinguish human vs. AI contribution.

📂 Stored in: /IP_Proof/01_Timestamps/

​

✍️ 2. Obtain Full IP Assignment from Collaborators

​

• Use a standardized IP Assignment Agreement to transfer all rights from:

  • Co-writers

  • Designers

  • Editors or AI collaborators (if applicable)

• Include clauses for:

  • Full transfer of present and future rights

  • Warranties of originality

  • Assignment to you as the sole pre-incorporation owner

📂 Stored in: /IP_Proof/02_Assignments/

​

📝 3. Draft a "Pre-STAK Declaration of Intent"

​

A legally mindful declaration that:

“All intellectual property rights for the 3 film projects — working titles: [Thriller 1], [Thriller 2], [Comedy 1] — are fully owned by John Homan as of 20/06/2025, and will be formally transferred to a Dutch STAK upon incorporation. No rights have been licensed, optioned, or sold to third parties.”

​

✅ Signed, dated, and ready for submission to banks, investors, and counsel

📂 Stored in: /IP_Proof/03_Declaration/

​

🚫 4. Avoid Binding Agreements Pre-STAK

​

Until our Dutch STAK is formed:

• Do not sign long-term co-production, distribution, or licensing deals under personal name.

• If urgent, use temporary Memoranda of Understanding (MOUs) or NDAs that include:

“All rights remain with the original creator and will be assigned to a Dutch IP holding foundation (STAK) currently in formation.”

📂 Store all interim agreements in: /IP_Proof/04_Provisional_Deals/

​

🗂️ 5. Professionally Structure Each Film Project

​

Create dedicated, version-controlled folders for each of the three films:

​

📁 Thriller 1 – [Working Title] └─ Treatments └─ Script Drafts └─ Concept Art └─ Legal Docs 📁 Thriller 2 – [Working Title] 📁 Comedy 1 – [Working Title]

​

Each folder should include:

• All creative assets

• Timestamps and drafts

• Signed agreements

• Pitch materials and development logs

📂 Back up regularly to cloud and encrypted drives

​

🏗️ 6. Timeline our Dutch STAK Incorporation

​

• Plan the formation of our Dutch STAK with our IP attorney, including:

  • Drafting the Foundation Statutes

  • Naming initial board/trustees

  • Aligning with Dutch notarial services

• Once formed:

  • Execute an official IP transfer agreement assigning all rights from yourself to the STAK.

  • Record the transfer in both internal logs and external registration systems (USCO, WGA, WIPO, etc.)

✅ This enables tax neutrality, litigation shielding, and licensing clarity under Dutch law

✅ Why This Structure Works — Even Before Incorporation

​

Benefit                                                                             How it’s Achieved

​

IP is provably owned:                     Timestamping + signed author and contributor agreements

No accidental exposure:                Avoiding premature deals under personal capacity

Clear investor pathway:                 Declared plan for transfer to a Dutch STAK holding structure

Future-proofed for co-productions:         Clean legal trail supports global licensing and EU film                                                                                                                          funds

Contingency-ready legal protection:              All agreements and declarations enforceable in                                                                                                                  pre-litigation IP defense

​​​

I am a bold, independently-driven film strategist known for fusing fearless creativity with sharp business insight. My work sits at the intersection of cinematic vision and market viability — where storytelling becomes an asset, and packaging becomes power.

​​​

I specialize in developing studio-grade feature film packages designed to attract investment, top-tier talent, and distribution. With an instinct for story structure and a precise understanding of global market demands, I don’t just guide projects — I position them for success in an increasingly competitive landscape.

​​​​

As a solopreneur, I thrive in the focused intensity of independent work — where clarity of vision, creative control, and strategic precision align. This autonomy fuels my ability to craft uncompromising, high-impact assets for discerning clients.

​​

Yet, I also value select one-on-one collaborations — especially those rooted in mutual respect for artistic integrity and commercial ambition. When aligned, these partnerships become powerful engines for world-class cinematic outcomes.

​​

If you’re a studio, distributor, or producer ready to invest in standout storytelling with global potential — I build the kind of film assets that don’t just pitch… they command attention.

​​

I am a solopreneur who thrives when working independently, as it allows me to fully immerse myself in my creative process and maintain a strong sense of direction. I’m most productive and focused when I have control over my time, decisions, and workflow.

​

That said, I also value one-on-one collaboration—especially on projects where artistic integrity is respected and complemented. In these partnerships, I enjoy the exchange of ideas and the mutual enhancement of vision, as long as the collaboration supports rather than compromises the core creative essence. This balance between independence and selective collaboration allows me to do my best work.​
