Seeking script doctors or story consultants? A script that struggles to hold the producer's interest usually suffers from a combination of under-developed characters, uneventful dialogue exchanges, and meandering storyline. If you seriously want to increase your script's potential to be turned into a film or a one-hour TV show, consider using our service. We work with repped writers and executive producers, including award-winning producers/writers.

Our scene-specific notes will point out weak links in the story. This service is designed to help clients brainstorm and further develop their stories. The script notes will identify major character(s) and scene(s) that cause story roadblocks. The notes come with some suggestions to improve your story. If you are new to screenwriting, please be advised that this is not "co-writing" service where we rewrite scenes and dialogue exchanges for you. When you get script notes service, what you are getting is professional, subjective feedback on your script. Additionally, it is not a proofreading service. Our script notes service is geared towards providing creative feedback to help you further refine your story and characters.

NOTE: If after placing your order -- and we have not started work on your script/writing material -- you decide to swap out your script for a different script or an updated version of the same script, please be advised that there will be a "swap out" service fee, in addition to your "different" or "updated" script being treated as a new submission with a new turnaround time. Also, please be advised that it will have to go through our pricing team to be assessed for pricing and invoicing since it will most likely have a different page count and different word count. For more info on swapping out your scripts and fees associated with that, please email customer support at info@thescriptjoint.com for details or read our Frequently Asked Questions page.
