Screenplay Development Notes

from $150.00

Get a producer’s perspective on your screenplay before your next draft. I’ll provide a full read with detailed, actionable development notes on story, structure, character, stakes, pacing, dialogue, clarity, and overall effectiveness, along with clear priorities for your next pass.

A note on length: For short films, I generally recommend aiming for 20 pages or fewer. If your short exceeds that, part of our development work may focus on identifying what can be tightened.

For features, approximately 90 pages is a strong target for many projects, with 120 pages generally considered the upper end of the recommended range. If your feature exceeds 120 pages, I’ll specifically look for opportunities to streamline the screenplay without sacrificing the story you’re trying to tell.

Submission Guidelines

Submit one screenplay per booking as a PDF. Please include your project title, format, genre, and logline, along with up to two specific questions or areas you’d like me to keep in mind during the read.

Feedback applies to the submitted draft. Review of a revised draft requires a new booking.
