A screenplay is one form of writing that needs to be near flawless when it comes to structure, storyline, dialogue, and character development. Anything short of perfection will get rejected. Slight irregularities and story imperfections can destroy a script's chance of ever getting produced. Is your script perfect?

It is estimated over 200,000 screenplays are written every year. Only three or four hundred of those are produced and printed for theatrical distribution. Even if your script is flawless, the chances of it getting produced are slim to none. That's reality.

For those that are interested in taking their script to the next level, I provide in-depth, screenplay analysis based upon my book.

Please note: I do not provide cover. You can buy cover from hundreds of different online sources for a relatively inexpensive price. The analysis I provide can only be performed by me or by someone who has thoroughly studied my method of analysis.

Production companies: Before you invest tens of thousands of dollars into producing a film, I can help you improve your script. Or, if you have several scripts to choose from, I can help you decide which screenplay is worth your time and money.

Writers: If you're a professional screenwriter and you think your latest screenplay is ready for submission, let me review it. Before you pitch your script to producers (or their lackeys), you should take the time to perfect it.

Actors: If you're a working actor and you have multiple screenplays to choose from for your next job, you'd be wise to choose the one that's going to help your career and not hurt it! I can help you decide which script is worthy of your best efforts.

I will do the following for your screenplay:

• Provide a numerical analysis of the seven moments throughout your script
• Find the three weakest scenes (and I'll explain why)
• Find the three strongest scenes
• Expose weak dialogue
• Expose irrelevant information or unnecessary character details
• Expose storyline inconsistencies

• Recommend scenes that should be eliminated altogether (and explain why)
• Provide suggestions on how you can strengthen your best scenes

I charge U.S. $2,500 for screenplays up to 100 pages. For each additional page, please add $35.

Before you hire me to analyze your screenplay, I recommend you purchase my book for $20 and get a feel for my method of screenplay analysis. If you don't agree with my opinions, then you can return the book and we don't have to do business together. But I believe once you read my book, you will view screenplay structure in a whole new light.
