Script Coverage & Consultation

It's extremely important that writers get honest, thoughtful and constructive feedback. Hollywood is looking for good scripts. Make sure yours is the best that it can be before submitting it to contests, agents, or producers.

I will spend hours with your script, giving it a thoughtful read; and preparing professional feedback in written and/or verbal form. 

1. Coverage

These are written notes starting with the standards used by studios, producers and agencies to evaluate your script; as well as providing concrete suggestions for improvement of the screenplay.

Cost: $400 

This includes reading your screenplay, and 3-pages of written coverage 

2. Consultation

This is a meeting that can take place face-to-face, over the phone or via ichat. My goal is to make this conversation as valuable to you as possible, by providing feedback, and helping you find the answers to unlock story problems that will make your script measurably better.

Cost: $300 for the first hour, $150 per hour thereafter 

The first hour includes reading your screenplay, preparation, and the first hour of discussion with you. Consultation beyond that initial hour, is charged at the $150 rate in 30 minute increments. 

3. Coverage + Consultation

By combining both written coverage and consultation, you can maximize your investment in gaining feedback, and mapping a course of action for your script.

Cost: $500 for the first hour, $150 per hour thereafter

The first hour includes reading of your screenplay, preparation, 3-pages of written coverage, and the first hour of discussion with you. Conversation beyond that initial hour is charged at the $150 rate in 30 minute increments.
