  • Patent number: 7865510
    Abstract: A script management and asset development system is disclosed. The system includes user activated menus for facilitating the distribution, viewing, listening, analyzing, storage, archiving, retrieving, searching, sorting, annotating, prioritizing, quantifying, tracking, printing and managing of assets. Each asset can include one or more of a document, image, literary piece, script, manuscript, treatment, book, synopsis, logline, song. Assignable Asset Restriction Levels within the system facilitate the imposition of restrictions, limitations, and permissions to both users and assets. A Rubric is assignable to each asset. The Rubric includes elements to which a user can respond for each asset thereby producing a numeric value. Also, a numeric value grading system, which implements a running calculation of an RPA (Rubric Point Average) to provide a grade or rank to each asset, is provided based upon scoring of the elements on the Rubric.

  • Publication number: 20080016211
    Abstract: A web application for public use and market sample groups includes a record creator for generating user demographic profiles, and allows users to critique entertainment pieces by way of Rubrics. Each Rubric relating to a given entertainment piece and presents grading elements to a user pertaining to the entertainment piece. Each element presents a choice of one or more statements to grade against. The completed Rubrics produce numeric scores that are attached to entertainment pieces along with user demographics from the profiles for quantification of the entertainment pieces' overall value based upon selectable demographic parameters.
