Outstanding Acheivement in Writing Derivative New Media
I hadn't noticed this. I've just been reading a book of essays on fan fiction. One essay used the term "derivative" in a consideration of what to call fan fic. Anyway, I had that in mind when you brought this category to my attention. While the award went to productions that NBC had commissioned for one of its shows (30 Rock), this sounds like fan fic might be eligible (but would probably never be considered by WGA members):
a derivative new media production is a production for new media based on an existing television motion picture that was produced for “traditional” media – e.g., a free television, basic cable, or pay television motion picture (Source)
