SCRIPT CREATION

We will develop and write an entire script based on your notes or your ideas.

There are a limitless number of stories, and each story can be told in countless ways. We will find the best way to tell your story.

Your notes or your ideas can be on paper, or in the form of an audio recording. They will be our guide for your script.

We will tell your story the way that you want it to be told.

We can write your Screenplay from your original story/transcript recordings/synopsis with scene outlines or script in progress.

Writing the Screenplay

The writing occurs in stages as follows:

The Treatment

A treatment is an abridged version of the story. It includes a brief summary of each major scene, descriptions of the significant characters.

The completed treatment is delivered to the client for their review. Changes can then be made to adjust the treatment to the client's visualization.

The First Draft

With the client’s approval of the treatment we write the first or "rough" draft of the screenplay. The first draft is sent to the client for their comments and recommendations. Changes are then made to match the work to the client's requests.

The Second Draft

The first draft is adapted to the client’s recommendations and all the required action and dialog is integrated.

The Final Draft

Upon client approval of the second draft, we begin work on the final draft. After client review of this final draft, any polish work is done and the finished script is delivered in the format requested by the client.

We also offer editorial and revision services for screenplays in progress.

We work on contract for hire contracts with strict non disclosure clauses.

Rates:

Generally we find it preferable for both parties to try to agree on a fixed fee for a project, but we can also work on a “per stage” basis or on an hourly, daily or weekly rate basis.

An initial clear understanding of expectations for the project is essential to a successful outcome.

Screen writing: $60 per screenplay page.
Min. rate / hour: $60.00
Min. project budget: $600.00

Short term projects are usually initiated with a 50% deposit upon commencing the project and 50% upon completion. First payment is non-refundable. Longer term projects are billed on a monthly payment plan.

We ask clients to please understand that long delays in providing feedback can set delivery dates back .

We deliver on time, with professional quality and ask that payments be made in a timely fashion and that communications and expectations are clear.
