Script Consulting & Doctoring, (hourly rate, sliding scale for students/retirees)

$140.00

This is hands-on.

Script consulting involves offering notes on how to develop a project further, highlighting plot holes, identifying weak arcs, and offering actionable suggestions for the next draft.

Script doctoring involves:

  • Polishing dialogue to make it sound more natural, funnier, or impactful, fixing camera directions and elements of setting so scenes come to life clearly and vividly;

  • Repairing structural issues to make sure the story’s pace and dramatic intensity are sustained, strengthening characters to make sure they come alive as authentic, three-dimensional humans with complexities and layers and collaborating with you to add character beats;

  • Ensuring the film’s tone and flow is consistent with its intended genre, such as adding or punching-up jokes to a comedy or intensifying action in a thriller
