Script Consulting

As a professional screenwriter, I provide bespoke script consultancy and story development services for writers, directors, and production companies looking to elevate their material before taking it to market.

My approach is grounded in visceral cinematic structure and rigorous thematic excavation. I don’t just point out what isn’t working; I provide actionable, character-driven solutions to ensure your script is undeniable by the time it reaches an executive’s desk.

"Charlie’s notes are incredibly sharp. He identified structural flaws I couldn't see and provided brilliant, practical solutions that completely unlocked my second act. An indispensable asset to any writer."

— Jacob Thomas, Award-Winning Feature Film Producer

CONSULTING SERVICES

1. The Script Diagnostic (Feature or Pilot)

A comprehensive read and detailed 3-to-4 page written analysis of your screenplay. This covers the foundational pillars of the script: structural integrity, character arcs, pacing, dialogue, and commercial viability. Includes a breakdown of what is working, what isn’t, and specific directives for the next draft.

2. The Deep Dive & Consultation

For writers seeking a highly collaborative approach. This includes the full written Script Diagnostic, followed by a 60-minute Zoom consultation to brainstorm solutions, untangle specific plot issues, and outline an actionable roadmap for your rewrite.

3. Pitch Deck & Treatment Review

A great concept will die on the page if the pitch isn’t structured properly. I review your show bible, pitch deck, or feature treatment to ensure the tone, stakes, and engine of the story are communicated with maximum impact.
