READER'S REPORTS FOR WRITERS

As a scriptwriter, you sometimes only get one shot at impressing a producer or production company so it’s essential that your script is the best it can be before you send it in for consideration.

OUR AIM AT SCRIPTREADERS.NET IS TO HELP ENCOURAGE WRITERS TO MAKE A STRONGER DRAFT OF THEIR SCRIPT.

Our Reader’s Report covers structure, premise, story, character, plot, dialogue, scenes, length, genre and provides writers with a logline and synopsis of their work. The readers also advise and suggest solutions to problems to help you in your next draft. Remember: writing is in the rewriting!

COVERAGE FOR PRODUCERS AND PRODUCTION COMPANIES

At scriptreaders.net we understand that
producers and production companies are
inundated with material all year round and
hiring permanent script readers can be very
costly. This is why we offer a freelance
service to help lighten the load and save
you time. Our readers can be hired as a
one-off or on a regular basis to provide
coverage on the scripts that are sent to you.

TREATMENTS

It can be of benefit to identify problems in the early stages of your work. Before you begin writing your film or TV script, you may wish to receive feedback on your treatment. We can provide critical analysis of your treatment and identify areas where you may run into difficulty when writing your script.

SERIES BIBLES

scriptreaders.net can help you create an industry standard series bible by offering feedback and critique. If you are unsure of what a series bible should contain, just drop us an email and ask!

COVER LETTERS AND ONE SHEETS

A scriptwriter usually sends a cover letter and one sheet when first contacting an agent, producer or production company about their work. Cover letters and one sheets are extremely important because they may be the first impresson you have on a producer or agent. Production companies and agents receive hundreds of letters and one sheets so it’s important to make yours stand out from the rest and we can help you achieve this with our feedback.

PROOF READING

When you’ve written a script you can check it a hundred times and still miss mistakes. Our readers can proof read your script or treatment for spelling and format errors to ensure your script is as professional as it can be.

FULL STORY EDIT SESSION

Most often a script will require a few drafts to whip it into shape. Our full story edit session offers writers the chance to receive more than just one round of feedback. If you live in Scotland, we can either arrange to meet you in person to discuss your rewrite plan or we can talk it through over the phone. And because we know how difficult it can be to stick to deadlines, we set them for you. We read 2 drafts of your script, provide you with 2 rounds of feedback, hold a one to one meeting either in person or on the phone, discuss your rewrite plan and set the deadline for your rewrite. All you have to do is write!
