Script Reading

Writers normally only get one shot at interesting a company or producer with a script so it’s essential the script is as good as it can possibly be. Our script reading and appraisal service aims to match up writers with people from the industry whose comments and advice will guide the writer to produce a better rewrite. Our script readers are either university/college lecturers or professional writers with numerous writing credits and/or qualifications. Several of our readers also read scripts for TV companies and theatres.

The length of the reader’s report will usually be 2-3 pages for a short script and 3-4 pages for a full length script. If you have selected our ‘in-depth’ service a report will usually be approximately 6 pages. We aim to send out appraisal reports within 4 weeks. If you wish to have feedback on a short synopsis or pitch for your script please email us with the length of the document and we will quote you a price.
