Hey everyone! So I made these new contract test templates for shows and movies of how I think we should start formatting the contracts to make it neater, more set in stone, and easier to revise.

The first test template is titled NewContract and is for shows. First off, I think we should completely change the whole "series contract" thing to "season contract" and each season should get it's own contract so that's what I did here. You'll see in the example below that having a season contract makes a lot more sense than having one series contract. Here is an example of it:

As you can see on the NewContract template page, everything is originally set as N/A so if you don't have anything for a certain section it'll say N/A. At the bottom where it says "Threads" would just give a link to the threads where the contract was approved for proof. Here is the CSS code for that example above:

The second test template I made NewContract2 is for movies! This one is much simpler since movies are simpler.

And the CSS code for that example above:

So yeah, what do you guys think, should we go with this? If you think this is good and should replace the current contract, do you think we should add or take away anything? Thanks. :)

Additional note, a while ago we made the rules that with contracts we'd have to start specifying the time span that a show's season will air. For example, if G.I. Jennings season 3 is pitched then with it we'd decide on when it'll air (ex: July 2015 to February 2016). I kind of forget the reason why we made this rule but it never was put into action. Should we do this? One good thing about it is that it'll give us a better view of our schedule so like, we'd know what to expect on the channel in the future but I don't really think it'll matter if we don't do it.
