Get an exec's perspective on the opening pages of your script.
- The executive of your choice will spend 10 minutes reading the opening pages of your script.
- The exec will provide a feedback report on that read which you will receive within 7 to 10 business days of the scheduled session.
Keep it punchy, moving, and true to you. Have visuals that bring the world you're writing to life, especially if it's a world most people aren't familiar with. It also helps executives from checking their phones. Have fun with it! Make a supplementary playlist or something else that feels organic to your series. For my series, I got my development deal after soft pitching it in a general with a ton of enthusiasm.
Half-hour streaming, cable, network, multi-cam, single cam. Big, fun weirdo comedies. Anything with a heart. Messy characters who can't get their lives together. Coming of age stories. Female-driven series and features. Musically-driven series and features. Rom coms. Silly, raunchy comedies.
Procedurals, mainly because I've never written one.
