The Société Civile des Auteurs Multimédia (SCAM - the Association of Multimedia Authors), an association for the collective management of copyright, fights a daily battle on behalf of its members for their moral and financial rights. The Association gives out information on contracts negociated by the authors and directors with production companies. The SCAM can also provide specimen writing contracts (for screenplays, texts, artwork, photographs, etc.), production contracts and a contract for a work on CD-ROM.
