Screenplay Coaching and Consulting
Our job, as a consultant, is to identify, analyze, and help solve script problems and almost all scripts do have issues and areas to address in a rewrite, ranging from structure, integration of theme, character dimensionality and having a clear character spine of motivation and action and their goal, issues of style, creating cinematic images, etc. I write a report and identify the area to address in the rewrite, and give possible solutions for the writer and examples of ways to approach the rewrite.
Script Overview
Includes 10-12 pages of notes. The notes include an analysis of structure, story, character, and theme, plus comment on what works, what doesn't work, and how to strengthen, tighten, and clarify the work.
Additional read with polish notes after rewrite.
Script Treatments

Script Integration
Sometimes producers or writers need to integrate two different drafts, choosing the best of both but it's difficult to see the forest for the trees when integrating scripts. This service includes cutting and pasting and, if necessary, re-structuring the script to use the best of two different scripts.
Script Cutting
Sometimes writers need to cut a script down to size, but have difficulty seeing what should be cut, and what needs to remain. This service includes the cuts on the script, and annotations for any writing that the writer will then need to add or rephrase.
