FAQ
Do you work with both stage and screen scripts?
Yes — I’ve worked professionally in both theatre and screen environments and tailor my coverage to your format.
Will you help with structure or rewrites?
Absolutely — just let me know how deep you want the feedback to go. For rewrite coaching or dramaturgy, message me for a custom quote.
Do you work with comedy, horror, or experimental scripts?
Yes! I love scripts that push boundaries. I’ll always give feedback with your intended tone and audience in mind.
What’s a logline, and do I need one?
A logline is a one- or two-sentence summary of your story — the “elevator pitch.” It highlights your main character, their goal, and the stakes. If you don’t have one yet, no problem — I’ll create or refine one as part of your script coverage.
What’s a script score sheet?
It’s a quick breakdown of your script’s strengths and areas to improve, rated across categories like plot, dialogue, pacing, character, and originality. Think of it like a festival reader’s scorecard — fast, clear, and useful.
What is script coverage exactly?
Coverage is a professional script report used in film, TV, and theatre to assess a script’s potential. It usually includes a summary of the story, comments on structure and tone, and a recommendation. I adapt this to be more writer-friendly and development-focused.
