Our Approach

Our consulting process is built on collaboration and clarity. We begin by understanding your vision, the themes you want to explore, and the audience you wish to reach. Our goal is to help you shape your ideas into a structured story that is both engaging and clear. We provide honest feedback and actionable suggestions to elevate your script from its early drafts to a polished final version.

Key aspects of our approach include:

• Understanding Your Vision: We listen carefully to your ideas, goals, and the message you wish to convey.

• Structural Analysis: We evaluate your narrative structure to ensure a clear beginning, middle, and end that keeps the audience engaged.

• Character Development: We work with you to develop characters that feel real and contribute meaningfully to the overall story.

• Dialogue and Pacing: We review dialogue to ensure it sounds natural and serves the plot, while also examining the pacing to maintain tension and flow.

• Market Readiness: We provide insights on how your script aligns with industry standards and current market trends, helping you position your work for success.

​

Our Process

Our process for Script and Story Consulting is both comprehensive and flexible, designed to meet the needs of writers at any stage of their project.

​

Initial Consultation

The first step is an in-depth consultation where we discuss your project in detail. During this phase, we cover:

• Project Overview: A discussion of your story, genre, and intended audience.

• Goals and Objectives: Clarification of your goals—whether it’s for personal development, pitching to producers, or seeking publication.

• Existing Material: Review of any drafts, outlines, or notes you have already prepared.

​

Detailed Review and Feedback

Once we have a clear understanding of your project, our team conducts a detailed review. This involves:

• Script Analysis: We read through your script or outline carefully, noting areas that work well and those that may need improvement.

• Structural Breakdown: We break down the script into its core elements—plot, character arcs, conflict, resolution—and analyze each component.

• Feedback Report: We compile a comprehensive report that includes specific feedback, suggestions for improvement, and questions to consider as you revise your work.

​

Collaborative Revision Sessions

After providing our initial feedback, we move into the revision phase. In this stage:

• One-on-One Consultations: We schedule sessions to discuss the feedback in detail and answer any questions you might have.

• Revised Draft Review: We review subsequent drafts to ensure that the revisions align with the overall vision and improve the narrative structure.

• Iterative Improvement: Our process is iterative; we work with you until the script reaches a point where it is clear, engaging, and market-ready.

​

Final Consultation and Strategy

Once your script is refined, we provide a final consultation that focuses on:

• Industry Alignment: We offer advice on how to position your script in the current market, including tips for pitching and potential next steps.

• Preparation for Submission: We help you prepare your final draft for submission to agents, producers, or festivals, ensuring that it meets industry standards.

• Long-Term Strategy: For writers planning future projects, we offer ongoing consulting services to help maintain a consistent level of quality and voice across multiple works.
