Script and Film Consultation
Film is a collaborative effort and it can never hurt to have another set of eyes looking at your project. We understand that every project is unique and will make every attempt to work within the boundaries of your schedule, budget, and artistic vision. Let us help you find the pitfalls in your script or finished film BEFORE you start spending your hard earned budget, and once your film is finished, let us give you a hand preparing you for what to expect when you submit to film festival, film critics, and distributors.
We want to get to know you and your project personally before we decide to make any commitments to you and your film. We want to make sure we are the right fit for you. For this we offer a FREE two hour consultation where we will review:
- Where you are in your production process
- What your project is about
- What your proposed budget is
- The timeframes of your production, post-production, and festival/distribution plans
The following is what is included in each package. Pricing is given after initial FREE consultation, and is on a “per project” basis.
Script Consultation -
- We will evaluate your script in several ways. We will look for obvious spelling and grammar errors and correct them for you.
- We will look at your overall plot, theme, and story beats to determine the script’s pacing and general structure, and then recommend changes based upon what we find.
- We will analyze your characters to determine strengths and weaknesses in their story development.
- We will consider your proposed budget while evaluating your script and give you advice on whether or not your fiscal needs are in line with your artistic vision.
The earlier you bring your project to us the better we can help you. If you feel that your script is camera-ready then you are ready to start your pre-production phase. We have plenty to offer you at this juncture as well!
