WRITING & STORY DEVELOPMENT SERVICES

Our writing and story development services can be done as ghostwriting or collaboration, there is no difference in price or process, only how the final product is marketed.

You can’t solve your story problems with the same thinking used to create them. We offer full story development services, listen closely to your ideas, sign all copyright and credit over to you, and offer affordable rates and flexible payment options. Since 2005, we have been working with studios, directors, producers, writers and IP generators to get their ideas on paper in a creative, professional way. The results are emotional and designed for success.

Stories From Scratch

From action, to romantic comedy, to thriller, to biopic, to drama, to family/animated and more – our skilled and experienced writers will write your film treatment, feature film screenplay, TV Pilot or Episode, and Reality Show Pitch, a book to adapt or a book to write, with a combination of great listening skills, professional writing ability, and industry-grade execution and formatting – all for extremely reasonable rates.

Story Triage

Whether you are a writer, producer or director, if your script is on life-support and needs a page-one rewrite or it’s just going through some growing pains, the script doctor is in.

SCREENPLAY CONSULTING: If you have a script but can’t figure out why it’s not gaining traction, our in-depth analysis will put your vision on track to succeed.

We take pride in being in the thick of the industry so we understand the business marketplace today, not last year or decades ago.

ADAPTATIONS & THINGS YOU DON’T KNOW HOW TO PUT INTO WORDS:

Compelling life story? Or dry business expert? Or maybe you’re just savvy enough to know that the IP of a published book suits your story better.

Even if your writing assignment has nothing to do with a published book, you may still need someone who can frame your story for an important presentation, Ted Talk, or (ahem) a closing argument. Yep. We do that too.

DEVELOPMENT SERVICES

It’s true, there is a place called development hell but it can be avoided by presenting your project in the right way. We cut to the heart of your story, its character arcs and themes to deliver compelling and comprehensive material that can sell your project in a quick presentation.

Most often decision makers don’t have time to read a script and we all know that screenplays are considered the blueprint to a film. Our presentation material is the next step in the rendering of the screenplay. Our team of professional writers and artists create presentation material that compels decision makers to read the script and convinces them that your project makes good business sense. 

Pitch Decks &   Business Plans

Most decision makers don’t have time to read your script and many do not need to. They would much rather see a pitch deck before committing to the script.  Our pitch decks are not tmeplates, they are custom for each project. We are professional artists and do not use any A.I. 

Detailed business plans that are used for investors and financiers include some promotional content to provide context and are designed as a branded and professional document that demonstrates the business case for your project. Our custom business plans include everything from financial analysis, to marketing, marketplace, distribution plan and waterfalls of revenue for investor recoupment,

One Sheets

Whether you need a leave behind, a promotional piece, or single pitch document, we will review your material and create the One-Sheet best suited to your needs. If we are creating pitch deck material for you, we brand everything to look professional and cohesive, so you have just what you need for any situation.

Show Bibles

Television and web series need a two-pronged approach to complete your presentation package. You need to be able to present the pilot episode as well as the series potential for not only one season but for its longevity potential… Whether it’s a reality show, drama, limited series, sitcom or web series we will help you frame it in concise yet thorough presentation.

À LA CARTE PRODUCTION SERVICES

First and foremost, we are very selective in the projects we produce; most come from those who hire us for development services. However, most recently, with the industry being at a pivotal point of transformation, we have found that our uniquely qualified producing model is in more demand than ever. Everything needed to get a screenplay ready for production There is no question that the better prepared you are before “action” the fewer surprises and costly delays you will encounter on-set. We also understand that sometimes a production team just needs an extra set of hands without the hassles of hiring someone, and just like our writing and development services, we can provide what you need at a reasonable rate without demanding screen credits.

Budgets, Line Producing, Waterfalls

Whether you need to know how much money you need to raise or you are pitching your project,  we provide a comprehensive budget using the latest industry information, tax incentives and wages. Our budgets include script breakdowns for Doods, Line item details, Account level details, and Top Sheets.

WATERFALLS

When an investor asks for your waterfall they are asking when they will be paid.  We will help you figure it out and compile a low-medium and high return scenario.

COMPS

Our industry analysts will gather all of the data to justify the worth of your project based on realistic comps for all revenue data (not just theatrical box office).

 

Shooting Script

Before a budget can be created your script needs to be refined so that all locations, characters, effects, props and scenes are properly accounted for and identified for all department heads to be on the same page.

Breakdowns & Reports

A script breakdown will inform the budget, the schedule and what every department needs to get ready for production. Reports include scene and character breakdowns, props, VFX, wardrobe, shot lists and set pieces.

DooDs

DAY OUT OF DAYS “DooD” SCHEDULING

The DooD goes far beyond a White Russian loving Jeff Bridges. Many times a casting director will need to know how many days a character will be needed to see if the talent being sought can accommodate the schedule. A DooD report breaks down all locations and characters throughout the entire production schedule and most importantly shows how many days it will take to shoot at each location for each character.
