Screenplay Analyst/Consultant/Story Editor

THE BENEFITS OF SCRIPT ANALYSIS

Whether it's your first script or your twentieth, objective, informed feedback is the one step every screenwriter needs for EVERY script.

YOU NEED A GOOD SCRIPT ANALYST!

You should obtain a QUALITY SECOND OPINION. I will provide you with guidance and a map to assist you on your journey. To this end, I offer a HIGH QUALITY SCRIPT CONSULTATION SERVICE at a reasonable price.

YOU NEED A THOROUGH, OBJECTIVE SCRIPT ANALYSIS!

You may think you can’t afford the professional advice you need to improve your script. Think again. YOU CAN’T AFFORD NOT TO!

You may think you have a grasp of all that’s required, but you’re too close to the material to really be sure.

Your script must be in its best possible shape before it goes anywhere.

You don’t want to waste your money and someone else's valuable time! If you send out your script before it’s ready, you may forever close a door that might have been open to a more polished script. You don’t want to ruin your future chances!

At the very least, you’ll need marketing tools: a SYNOPSIS and a LOGLINE. Click here for more information.

TAKING THE FIRST STEP TOWARD SUCCESS…

For a Basic Screenplay Critique, you'll receive notes on concept, plot, structure, dialogue, characters, and formatting. Though your own judgment will ultimately determine a further course of action, you need to know you are on the right track before the script goes to market. Script consultation and analysis are indispensable tools.

Editing for Formatting and Grammar For those who ONLY want to make sure that their script is in prime shape and ready to send to a producer. For this service I will ONLY be reading for formatting and grammatical errors. For this service I will NOT comment on the script's content.
