Script Services

This service is for writers who want to improve their script from a story and narrative standpoint.

This Coverage focuses on ways your script could be improved in all areas, including pacing, story structure, character work, and others. The reader will read your script in its entirety and make notes on everything from story structure to on-the-nose dialogue, as well as indicate ways these could be improved. Both the strengths and weaknesses in your script will be assessed so you can confidently head into your next draft! 

Submit a .PDF of your screenplay and receive 3-5 pages of in-depth notes and comments from your reader in 1-2 weeks. 

For 48-Hr. Rush Service: The 48 hours starts from the time you complete your material submission.

MARKETING BONUS! Get a Recommend from your reader, and we'll do one round of personalized marketing to managers and producers (up to 5) for this screenplay for free!

If there's one thing that can get your script tossed in the trash pile right off the bat, it's spelling, grammar, and formatting errors in your screenplay!

Before you send out your script for ANY consideration, you should have it gone over with a fine-toothed comb by a professional to ensure it is immaculate.

Submit a .PDF of your full pilot or feature screenplay, and your proofreader will send it back to you in 2-3 weeks marked up with comments and necessary fixes so that you can see where the technical errors were and avoid falling into the same traps going forward! 

Please note that when a formatting error is consistent throughout your script, standard procedure is the editor will mark the first few instances and explain the rule so that you know how to address it throughout, but not every instance of the same formatting mistake will be annotated. 

For 48-Hr. Rush Service: The 48 hours starts from the time you complete your material submission.

This service is for writers who want to refine their writing style and language on a sentence and paragraph level, and make their script a more efficient read. 

You'll submit your full pilot or feature script as a Final Draft .FDX file, and your line editor will comb through line by line to make your pages as easy a read and as clean as possible. This includes proofreading as well as fixing any formatting, syntax, grammar, and redundancy issues throughout. The editor will only rework what's necessary to ensure nothing distracts from your story and unique voice.

The changes will be made directly in your screenplay file and returned to you within 3 weeks, but each of the changes will be annotated so that you can see exactly what's different.
