Genre-Specific Notes

ScreenCraft’s script development service is consistently regarded as the best in the industry. Because of our attention to detail, our high quality services are sought by producers, literary managers, agencies and studios. We don’t just match you with a random reader. We make sure your script is read by a professional reader well-versed in your specific genre with at least 1 year of relevant industry experience.

Pick Your Genre

Select a genre so that we can match you with a specialized reader for your story. The notes you receive will be about all aspects of your script, but the reader will provide additional comments for your writing through the lens of the genre you choose.
Not every script fits into a perfect genre box. Choose the genre you want your reader to have the most experience with, and you will still receive notes on all aspects of your script. If you can’t decide, choose ‘other genre’ and your reader will focus on your script’s genre elements.

I absolutely loved the feedback I got from the ScreenCraft Fellowship reader. Whoever it was had paid attention and seemed to really get it - such a joy. They also highlighted problems, which are spot on. I now know where to prioritise changes. Thank you!

2E9AD reviewed my book, 'Annie Weaver, OORAH!' The feedback was very useful, and I absolutely recommend the site. When I got 2E9AD's feedback, I immediately went to work to on the recommended changes, and then submitted the revisions. Thanks, 2E9AD!

I got some great ideas from the Screencraft reviewer. There were things obvious to me as the author, but not quite well enough fleshed out for a reader. I will take these comments to heart, and apply them in my next novel.

I was excited to read ScreenCraft's analysis for my horror comedy script, THEATER CRAWLERS! On pins and needles to see if I can make the cut!

My feedback from ScreenCraft was terrific. There were things that I knew had to be fixed and the feedback pinpointed it, so I definitely know what to do. Great!😀

My reader's notes were very thoughtful and constructive. I will be implementing a lot of their notes. I'm so happy I paid a little more to have someone provide notes for my screenplay. I will be using Screencraft for more of my projects.

ScreenCraft does what they say they'll do and are prompt. And they liked my play!(which I entered into the ScreenCraft play writing competition) and for which I received very useful, doable feedback.

I was worried about monologues. But they worked. I have done many revisions and I believe the reader could see that. The final suggestions for tightening up some of the dialogue as well as using a particular event earlier in the play to bring it home later for the plot was great. Thanks very helpful.

I had a review of the first 15 pages of my screenplay. I wanted to know the weaknesses that a reader will find as they make up their mind about what is coming. The reviewer gave me a few pointers that were very important for the rewrite. I had wasted precious initial space on exposition, while I had not given a stronger sense of who the characters were. Some elements that are very important to the build of the plot were not clear yet. These were subtle things that a reader who has to read beyond page 15 would have noticed. All the things he pointed out were already in the script, but later on, where a studio reader may not have reached. I completely and wholeheartedly recommend to have your 15 first pages read by a Screencraft reader. Fixing the first pages will help future readers to read to page 16, or more.

ScreenCraft offered amazing feedback on my feature script. It was constructive, actionable and very thorough. It reflected a complete and detailed read of my full draft as well as targeted and insightful feedback on story arc, character, and writing styles. I'm definitely able to integrate what I've learned in order to make desired improvements.

Had my first attempt at writing a Pilot episode covered by ScreenCraft. The feedback from the Reader was concise, on point, and most importantly it helped me see where improvements can be made. Will definitely use again! Recommend! Worth the money spent.
