WHY
YOU NEED A SCREENPLAY CONSULTANT
You
know how hard you've worked on that
script--the weeks, months, even years you've
dedicated to the final product.
Congratulations! You have accomplished
something many people never do.
Now,
what can you expect? Will self-doubt kick in?
Will you ask yourself, "How good is my
script, really? Is it truly as "ready" as
my friends and family seem to think? Will my
script withstand the buffeting of the Reel
World?"
Should
you submit your script to a contest, attend a
pitchfest, post it on one of the Internet
sites or try to find an agent? Will you be
able to handle the harsh critique of a
producer, or worse yet, the agony of not
knowing why your script was turned down?
Before
you do anything, consider the value of
obtaining a quality second opinion. Otherwise,
you'll be wasting your money and someone
else's valuable time.
My
goal is to give screenwriters the tools they
need to achieve the next level. I strive to
provide you the best guidance to assist you on
your journey.
THE
BENEFITS OF A HIGH QUALITY SCREENPLAY
CONSULTANT
Whether
it's your first script or your twentieth,
objective feedback is one step you can't do
without. Why not get the advice you need to
improve your script?
If
you're ready, you'll receive notes on concept,
plot, structure, dialogue, characters, and
formatting. Even though your own opinion
on the quality of your screenplay will
ultimately determine your course of action,
you need to know you are on the right track
before the script goes to market. Screenplay
consultation and analysis are indispensable
tools.
Chances
are, you could use some help in pin-pointing
areas that need improvement. A good script
consultation can help you identify problems
and weaknesses in your screenplay and provide
ways to help you overcome them.
Does
my beginning hook the reader? Does my
protagonist have a "character arc"? Does
my dialogue sprint off the page or lie
lifeless? Are there any faults in the logic of
my plot? Does my story fall flat in the middle
of Act 2? Is my ending so striking that the
audience will be talking about it for
days?
You
need the answers to those questions.
WHAT
IS A LINE-BY-LINE
SCRIPT ANALYSIS?
If
you need precise, detailed suggestions of how
to improve your plot structure, tighten the
description and keep the reader interested,
then a script analysis is exactly the next
step for you.. Do you know how to make your
descriptions brief and your dialogue sparkle?
If the script has become overly long, script
analysis can help you chop out the dead wood
and hone your story down to its essence. And
isn't that what you wanted to convey all
along?
You
want to get your vision across. You need to
know that the story in your head is now the
story on the page. That’s what a good
screenplay consultant can do for you.
