Syd Field performs a personal, individual analysis of your screenplay and gives suggestions for the rewrite. This evaluation is ideal for writers who want comprehensive feedback on their screenplay.
In these evaluations each screenwriter will:
- Receive an in depth analysis of the screenplay, focusing on integrating story and premise into the arc of the story line.
- Defining the inciting incident that sets the story in motion.
- Is your character and story set up from page one, word one?
- Integrate your character’s dramatic need through the story line.
- Add more depth and dimension to the characters.
- Understand the purpose and nature of dialogue to effectively reflect your characters inner thoughts, feelings and emotions.
- Examine the emotional dynamics of conflict to expand the tension, purpose and motivation of the character.
Other points to be covered:
- Opening up the action, creating a more dynamic visual arena.
- Are the stakes high enough?
- Are the transitions strong enough?
- Relationships defined enough?
- Does the ending work effectively?
These topics will be assessed and evaluated. There will be a one on one in-person consultation (if you live in the Los Angeles area); or a Skype consultation that will be recorded and sent to each participant.
Turnaround time will be three – four weeks, depending on Syd Field’s schedule.
