One-on One Feature or TV Script Consulting

Script consulting generally starts with one of the two options below. 

________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Basic Script Reading (Option 1) 

An analytic read of a feature-length film script. The writer will receive 5-6 pages of typed notes as well as additional notes on the body of the script. The typed-notes will be divided into two main parts: Story and Rendering. Story includes premise, theme, character, structure, plot, and character arcs. Rendering includes scene construction, plot and character dramatization, and the use of an image system.  
Included is a one-hour of follow-up phone consultation.

Advanced Script Reading (Option 2) 

An analytic read of a feature-length film script. The writer will receive 10-12 pages of typed notes, 5-10 pages of creative suggestions and additional notes on the body of the script. The typed-notes will be divided into two main parts: Story and Rendering. Story includes premise, theme, character, structure, plot, and character arcs. Rendering includes scene construction, plot and character dramatization, and the use of visuals. Degree of creative suggestions will be dependent on client and project.
Included are two hours of follow-up phone consultation.
