Writers Workshop Feedback
 
Zeke F.    10/2009
Thank you so much. The reader did an EXCELLENT job. Not only is it clear that the script was read with extreme attention, the critical notes are thoughtful and VERY helpful as opposed to destructive. And also, thanks for the praise, that's always nice, though the suggestions for improvement were even nicer! I would say the best aspect of the coverage was the acute understanding by the reader of the script I am trying to achieve. The notes address the script I would like to write, not some fictional notion of the script I might have written.

Steve M.    09/2009
I've used your service before, and actually won third prize in a screenplay competition thanks to some of your suggestions. Thanks again!

Mark A.    08/2009
As for your evaluator, I would give him/her a 10 across the board. Although I didn't agree with everything, the comments and suggests were all valid and smart. In my revised script, I incorporated many of the suggestions. Money well spent. Thanks again.

Cynthia Pullham    04/2009
I want to thank the reviewer. After all this time and all the revisions I've made to this play, they STILL found ways to make it better and sent comments that had the palm of my hand flying straight to my forehead with a "God, yes!"

And, finally, thank you for the detailed action plan you provide for making the most of the Recommend grade. What an incredible service you folks deliver.

Sarah R.    03/2009
Not being a writer by training, I feel like I’ve gotten a college level education at a massive discount – not to mention at my own pace and in my own time frame. . . Script Pimp promotes a constructive and encouraging approach.

Sammie M.    03/2009
Thanks a lot for the coverage that your company did on my script. It has really helped me as a screenwriter. I'm utterly sure and confident that writing my subsequent scripts will not be a problem. I'm looking forward to doing more business will your company.

Gary M.    03/2009
I owe you and Script Pimp a debt of gratitude [for your notes]. And, perhaps most important of all, I feel that all this work-shopping has actually made me a better writer overall. Needless to say, I'm now looking forward to the circulation phase.

Carlton W.    03/2009
I just reviewed your notes and indeed, they make a lot of sense to me. I will get right on them and resubmit to you soon.

Louise G.    02/2009
My feedback notes are amazing--really insightful and very inspiring.

Bettie Styfurak    02/2009
I couldn't be more pleased with the insights you provided. Thank you so much.

Tony S.    01/2009
I thank you guys for the notes. It's a great help to receive such a professional and accurate notes for the script. I'm grateful for your comments.

Todd E.    01/2009
Thanks for the quick turnaround. As far as rating the quality of the reader's comments, 10s across the board. I feel (the reader's) comments were fair and also very thorough.

Tim M.    01/2009
Just a quick email to thank you for the notes. I have to say I'm impressed with the quality and clarity of the suggestions that were made - they will definitely help me with the next draft.

Forrest G.    12/2008
I'd like to say thanks to you guys for the feedback provided on my screenplays. The readers' realistic, knowledgeable approaches and insights helped me to develop the scripts greatly, and they also helped me to grow as a writer and editor of my own work.”

Enza F.    11/2008
You guys are exceptional! Not only do you find all the weaknesses in the script and make your recommendations on how to make the script great, but you also acknowledge the good parts of the script. All hope is not lost. That's what exceptional teachers do: first praise then lay out the positive criticism.

Jami D.    11/2008
Great notes--felt like the evaluator really got the story and what I was trying to do. I will be re-submitting my next draft.

Roy L.    11/2008
I just want to say that your notes are incredible. I've read through them a couple of times because there is so much good information and things to think about regarding my script. You've given me a lot of great ideas and great direction.

D. Friedman    11/2008
Thank you for your evaluation. Your keen and thorough observations were greatly appreciated! Also, all your feedback scales were clearly a ten including the length of the evaluation and the quick turnaround time. The only thing I wish was better was the script itself, which I naively thought was ready based on (an online course). Thanks again for your outstanding analysis and I look forward to improving it.

Ken L.    11/2008
Thanks for the feedback, very informative.

Lori J.    11/2008
I just looked over my notes. They look thorough, on the mark, and of total use as a tool for me to rewrite and resubmit to you in a timely manner.

Matt O'Neill    11/2008
I just wanted to shoot you a quick thank you email for all your help and great feedback over the years.

Douglas L.    11/2008
I shall only wish I had found you guys sooner. The notes are superior in every respect. I will be busy now. Many thank yous. Moreover, I found your customer service excellent, please thank Matt Misetich for me.

Larry S.    10/2008
Had a consultation with (my consultant) on Sunday. He is exceptional. After speaking with him, I'm recharged on the project and filled with lots of new ideas.

Simon R.    10/2008
Thanks for the notes--complimentary, but incisive and very helpful. Exactly what I was hoping for, in fact. I'll definitely be doing a re-write based on the notes.

Thanks again to whoever did the notes. Much appreciated!

Elke Weiss    10/2008
Thanks for the notes. Again, simply fantastic feedback, no word wasted. I got development notes from you before, and they were right on. Thanks so much, also in regards to the production constraints you beautifully weaved that into the review.

Cynthia P.    09/2008
Thank you, as always, for the insightful feedback! It amazes me to get four solid pages of stuff that never occurred to me about my own screenplay. You folks never disappoint.

I'm going to digest the feedback, work on the script some more, and send it back.

In the meantime, please convey my sincere thanks to the analyst who read (my script) and gave me so much food for thought!

Simon C.    09/2008
Thank you. Your notes were clear, concise, thorough, and encouraging.

Mark M.    09/2008
Beyond the money (and paying such a small fee for such brilliant notes at that), your time and energy given to my script is so deeply appreciated. Especially because I feel that I received such enlightening (very educational) notes. Very touched by how attentively you pondered my work. By virtue of your kindness, I am in high spirits to better it!

M.L. Willis    09/2008
I really want to thank you, and Script P.I.M.P., you guys (girls) are like a light at the end of a very dark and lonely tunnel. I hope no matter how successful you become that you will always be around to help us. For all your good, honest, hard, and fair work. . . thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Curtis King    09/2008
Was very satisfied with the evaluation. I was initially afraid that it would have been a standard cut and paste review, but was amazed at how thorough was the examination into the life of the script. Made me feel as though you were in my head and asking the same questions I've had; and answered many of them. I feel that I can take the month to give it the refined polish it deserves before resubmitting. Thanks again.

Tom Zmiarovich    09/2008
Thanks for the great feedback. Lots of good suggestions to digest. I feel all of them are strong elements that can and should strengthen the story and characters.

One great feedback note I can give to you and your team is that at this point in the process I may be too close to this story and characters to always see the best fixes or problems. But you, as an independent outside reader, can. This is absolutely what I need, what any serious writer needs. Thanks for having this service. Not only does your feedback help me on this script, but it keeps me in line on other scripts I am working on.

Adewale O.    09/2008
I received the notes from my script. . . and was very pleased with the comments, observations, and suggestions made by my analyst. The analyst posseses a keen story sense. a genuine interest in the story, and a solid grasp of the craft of writing. I thought the feeedback itself was very professionally written and communicated a thorough understanding of the story.

I will definitely be incorporating many of the suggestions in the next draft. Please express my appreciation.

Eric Werner    09/2008
Just wanted to say thank you. I was really pleased to get a "consider" from Script P.I.M.P.

Please tell the reader her notes are great.

P. Samuelson    09/2008
This analyst was perfect. It was plainly obvious (the reader) gave it a close read and understood where it was going and what the issues were. Perfect as usual!

A. Fox    08/2008
What a speedy and spot-on analysis. . . Thank you again for such a thoughtful and incisive set of notes. You truly are the jedi swami masters of the screenplay arts.

Gary Milin    08/2008
I just spent the past few days assimilating the notes I got. I thought they were by far the most insightful and constructive feedback I've ever received. . . I'll definitely be incorporating a lot of these suggestions into my script.

Please convey my thanks and appreciation to your senior analyst, and I will definitely be resubmitting my script once I finish my new draft.

Gary T.    07/2008
Many thanks for your superb notes. Your suggestions are first class and have given me immense food for thought.

In such a solitary business as writing can be, it is very warming to have experts like yourself provide such encouraging critiques.

Tom A.    06/2008
The notes where well thought out and worth every penny I spent. Will use you again. Thank you.

William Tyback    06/2008
My objective has been achieved, and I cannot thank your reader enough. They (the notes) were brilliant, thanks!

Lisa D.    06/2008
Thank you for your thoughtful notes. It will take me a few weeks to fully digest the information, but your insights have provided a lot of needed direction.

Michael S.    06/2008
Got the notes. What can I say? They're right on point. Thank you and please thank the reader/analyst for me.

Mark M.    05/2008
I am deeply touched by the notes and thoughtfulness from the inspiring person who laboured over my script. I look forward to sending Script P.I.M.P. an improved version, all based on the profound notes I received. Thank you!

Ron F.    05/2008
We really appreciate the thorough analysis on our script, PLAYING MARCO POLO. Your service is worth every penny.


Philip C.    05/2008
Thank you so much for your insightful and detailed notes on my script. They were highly
helpful and (thankfully) gracious. I was also pleased to see that you 'got' my script - certainly writing a dual story is bound to lose some people, and I'm glad you seem to have understood the true spirit of the piece, with all
its points both broad and fine.

Ian Noakes & Scott Parisien    04/2008
Only months after receiving a grade of RECOMMEND on our script DARK PASSENGER, we were able to use the endorsement letter and coverage we received to secure an option agreement for our script. The producer hopes to have the script into production within a year, and all eyes coming in contact with the script continue to be impressed. We couldn't have done it without you guys!

Allie Davidson    04/2008
I don't know who read my script and provided the notes, but all I have to say is they are BRILLIANT. THANKS SO MUCH! You folks have been so helpful and patient and your suggestions are definitely not falling on deaf ears.

Charles Suozzi    02/2008
Thanks again for taking the time to read my script. Your notes were a lot of help and I definitely think will aid in taking the script to
the next level.

JORDAN BREEN    02/2008
Your customer service is OUTSTANDING. Your development notes and reviews are detailed and helpful.

Thank you SCRIPTPIMP

Scott Parisien    01/2008

Excellent coverage. Excellent. It pointed out the areas where I was unsure of the directions and chances that were being taken. I will definitely be getting back with a few questions once I get into the rewrite process, but thanks for the consider, and I look forward to resubmitting for that recommend.





Philip Samuelson    01/2008
"You guys are great, the comments are always awesome and intuitive, and even
when you see something wrong, you give suggestions on where the story could
be read. By far the best service I've ever dealt with, thanks again!

My evaluator's understanding of your story: 10
My evaluator's ability to provide useful constructive criticism: 10
My overall experience with Script Pimp to date: 13 1/2"

Lynne Logan    12/2007
"THANKS so much for taking so much answering my questions and making further comments on my script. I REALLY APPRECIATE IT."

Julie    11/2007
Just a quick note of thanks for your thorough notes on the current draft of my screenplay, Epiphany.

For me, your services offer the best "bang for the buck" out there. Not only are your notes extensive and thorough, but you have a wonderful grasp of the story I'm trying to tell and have helped me tremendously. Not only do I agree with you on most of your suggestions but you've picked up on one aspect of the story that I was struggling with: the development of Joe Sheppard (the reporter) and how much to include about him and his background. You've given me a lot to work with by way of your easily understood notes; precise, clear, and to the point.

Thanks again. I look forward to submitting another draft and hopefully reaching "recommend" status.

Micki    11/2007
Thanks for the quick turnaround and for the constructive comments, which we found very helpful.

Kevin Schmadeka    11/2007
Thanks for all these ideas, this will be immensely helpful.

Harold Katkov    11/2007
Your critique was awesome! Both of them. Thanks.

Joseph Nutter    10/2007
Chadwick,

Just a quick note to let you know that Sean's consultation was well worth the time and money. At first defensive to his criticisms, he quickly proved he knew my script inside and out. He brought his industry experience to bear pointing at issues at a high level then dove deep into the scenes and dialogue suggesting changes and re-arrangements to better tell the story. He pointed out where the momentum stumbled, holes in my logic, etc...all the while offering sound suggestions to improve. And, I'm not saying this because he liked my script˜he didn't have many positive things to say about it.

Regards,

Joseph T. Nutter


Jack Bunce    10/2007
Thanks to your help with the notes I have a intriguing slate for the new draft.

Thanks again,

Jack Bunce

James Furkin    10/2007
Thanks so very much for your comments and insight........

James Furkin

Mark Golik    10/2007
Thank you for the excellent feedback. I've already worked on implementing a number of your suggestions.

Marissa Cerar    10/2007
Thanks very much for the notes.

Julie Howe    09/2007

I just received your notes and wanted to say thanks for your input and suggestions. Since this is my first "real" script, I am looking for any kind of feedback I can get and yours was very helpful and appreciated. Any insight I can get from those in the industry is invaluable and, although I got a "pass" grade, I am encouraged by your positive comments on my story and its presentation. I hope I can take it to another level and get it ready for circulation.

Best



Jack Davidson    09/2007
Chad,

Just went through notes from the polish. Great job. Thank the reader for me -- the notes about Cross and Sigrid's relationship feeling rushed and foreshadowing her ultimate actions are spot on. I took a stab at handling both issues in as deft a manner as I could -- hope it worked. Corrections too -- great, I never would have seen them.

Big thanks again to everyone there. What Script Pimp does for writers is amazing.

Jack

Matthew Atwood    08/2007
Chad,

Thanks for everything. My recommended script has been picked up, so there is no need to continue circulating it or keeping it up on InkTip. Once again, thanks for all the help with coverage.

Matthew

Robert Garmany    07/2007

Chad,

Thank you so much for your support and understanding in this matter. I want you to know I did receive the set of notes from the new evaluator and I couldn't be happier. I found almost all the suggestions made by this evaluator to be very constructive, and insightful. I truly believe I'm going to come away with a better screenplay once I make the changes suggested by your evaluator.

Thank you again for your efforts. I would/will recommend your service to anyone.

Robert Garmany

Neil G.    07/2007
Chad,

I will e-mail you my second script for Sean to read by tomorrow. Sean was impressive and on-the-money with his comments.

It surpassed my expectations, which is a rarity.

Andrew Freiburghouse    07/2007
Fantastic notes as usual. The Pimp is The Shit. I am always impressed by the quality of the notes provided and I will definitely remain a customer for the future.

Andy

Aaron J. Patton    05/2007
If not for your service, I would not be growing as a screenwriter the way that I am. So thank you very much.

Best,

Aaron J. Patton

Suzanne Gill    05/2007
Your evaluator - 10 out of 10
Your overall experience with Script Pimp - 10 out of 10

Craig Peters    05/2007
Your evaluator - 9 out of 10
Overall evaluator's experience - 10 out of 10

Clea was great. I appreciate her ability to recognize and help shape the main threads of the story. Her comments about being too "on the nose" and recommendations for cuts were likewise very useful. I know my script is much stronger thanks to her feedback.

John Richardson    05/2007
I have learned so much from your service. I've also found that the label "recommend" is very helpful to get attention to the work from a complete unknown such as myself.

Thank you for the great service,

John Richardson

Jack Bunce    05/2007
Very strong set of notes and short turn around. Good for me, I wanted to keep working on the script. 

Thanks,

Jack

Gary Wright    05/2007

After three rounds of notes with you guys last year, I managed to
option my historical piece. There's no doubt in my mind that it
wouldn't have happened without your help.

Thank you!

Gary Wright

Yarrow Wayman    04/2007
your consulting feedback notes were absolutely brilliant! thank you so much. very thorough and intuitive -- drilled down to the structure level in key places, rather than just critiquing at the dialogue/action level.

your insightful eye motivated me into ripping the whole thing apart and coming up with a totally new direction and story line. the result is a much stronger (can you say organic?) read with lots of heart.

i will definitely be using your services for future writes/rewrites.

yarrow wayman

David Towner    04/2007
Thank you for being so thorough. This was my first draft of my screenplay and I really could use the advice.

Scott Lindquist    03/2007
Thank you for the excellent notes. I appreciate the insight and thoroughness with which my script was reviewed.

Matthew J. O'Neill    03/2007
Just wanted to say thanks for the coverage and placement of my screenplay. InkTip recently posted it on their site thanks to you guys, and I've already received 5 or 6 leads which I'm persuing.

Jack Davidson    03/2007
I'm very excited that you feel strongly enough about the material to give me a recommend. Your notes are excellent and I would like to first work on implementing them into the script before it goes to anyone. Thanks again for all your help.

Andreas Van Ginneken    03/2007
I would like to comment that these notes were very helpful. They are indicative of a thorough read of my script for which I thank the reader.

James Justice    03/2007
Thanks for the excellent notes. I'll take advantage of them and do a polish before sending it back to you to present to your execs.

Brian Levine    03/2007
You gave me some wonderful notes on my screenplay. The story is very very different now but much stronger. It was partly thanks to your excellent notes that I started to question large parts of what I'd written, and to be more brutal with myself. I think you perfrom a wonderful service.

Natalie Lemar    03/2007
Thanks for those final story notes....you really know how to lead a writer to a finer story.

Thomas McCobb    03/2007
From a scale of 1 - 10, with 10 being perfect, I gave Script P.I.M.P. three 10s for:
1. The evaluator's understanding of my story.
2. The evaluator's ability to provide useful constructive criticism.
3. My overall experience with Script P.I.M.P. to date.

Suzanne Gill    03/2007
We loved your suggestions. Hopefully we utilized them correctly for a better script! Thank you!


Natalie LeMar    03/2007
Thank you, thank you! The quick response and the additional Notes were great.

Thanks for your time, for your thought-provoking Notes, and for potentially opening the door for me.


Nate Gubin    03/2007
Thanks for the notes. I'm going to chew on them and come back to you with some questions.

Thanks again!

Thomas McCobb    03/2007
Thank you very much for your thoughtful and well-written notes on my script sent for review. All of your points are well-taken and worthy of careful consideration.

I certainly hope reading it was not too painful.

Thank you very much again.

Harold Katkov    03/2007
Thanks tons for the feedback. It's been very cool working with Script P.I.M.P. I am DEF a better writer since being P.I.M.P.ed. I'll have a totally new script to submit in about 3 weeks. I will submit MATRI-MONEY to the manager you suggested - thanks so much, I'm submitting to 3 other managers in the next few days. Make it a great week.

Thanks again.

Robert Nadler    03/2007
I believe my money was well spent. In general, your readers criticisms showed good insight and are well founded.

Thanks.

Jesse Kobayashi    03/2007
I just wanted to say how impressed I have been by ScriptPIMP and the coverage I've received. The notes have been concise and thorough. Though I was initially very skeptical to use an online source for coverage and development, I now believe it be money well spent. The objectivity is something I've needed for some time. Thanks ScriptPIMP!

Derek Lively    03/2007
Thanks again for the thorough notes and quick (really quick) response!


James Monroe Justice    02/2007
Thanks for the notes.

Jack Davidson    01/2007
Thanks for the timely notes on my script. Great insights -- that I'm sure will improve the next draft. I will definitely re-submit and try to raise this piece to something you might recommend.

Best regards,

Jack Davidson

Justin Samuels    01/2007

Thanks for the speedy return of the notes.

Don Caron    01/2007
Dear Mr. Clough,

Thank you for your very impressive notes on Different Drummers. I appreciate the care and insight and my writing partner and I are excited about the rewrite which we got started on right away. Your comments all ring true and have given us a clear path to follow to riase the script to the next level. Thanks again. Don

Ron Cecchini    01/2007
Hey Chadwick.

I just wanted to send a quick shout out (how "hip" of me...)
and say that my consult with Sean this morning was great!
We talked for 3 1/2 hours and he gave me tons and tons of
great ideas - specific, detailed ideas - for doing, essentially,
a complete overhaul and rewrite of my story. The result is
much more compelling and much more character-driven.

I'm chomping at the bit to get home and tackle this thing!
I'm setting July 1st as a deadline to get the rewrite done.
And when it is, you'll be hearing back from me - because
I will again want to meet with Sean!

Thanks again, and I'll talk to ya in the near future.

Sincerely,

Ron
Boston, MA

Thanks for the great notes.

Patrick Bosald    01/2007
Hi, Chadwick,

I got a well written and helpful evaluation on my other current script. I've done the rewrite and would like to submit the reworked script for another review by the same reviewer.

Thank you,

Patrick Bosold

Tina Juarez    01/2007
Dear Chadwick,

I don't have the words to adequately express my appreciation for the quality of the analysis the script has received through your Writer's Workshop program. It has been exciting and gratifying to see the screenplay come alive over the course of the past year that I've worked with your evaluator. I have learned so much. I hope to someday have the chance to personally thank the evaluator(s). I appreciate your assistance in circulating the script.


Sincerely,

Tina

Derek Lively    01/2007
Wonderful. Thank you very much for the great notes.

Gary Milin    01/2007
Chadwick,

Just wanted to let you know that I'm very happy with
my notes. I thought the feedback and suggestions were
top notch and will certainly help me a great deal with
the rewrite. I will definitely be submitting a new
draft to ScriptPIMP in the future.

Best regards,

Gary

Mike McGeever    01/2007
Thanks so much! I never believed you were actually going to respond before Christmas, but once again you exceeded my expectations.

Please send my deepest thanks to your reviewer. His very enthusiastic and constructive review was the best Christmas present I could have received.

-Mike McGeever

-Suzanne Gill

James Watts    12/2006
I thought your notes were excellent. Actually the best I have ever received on any script, even notes from real live producers.
(Seriously!) I tried to address all of the concerns
raised in your notes. I look forward to your
comments.

Patrick Nichols    12/2006
My consultation with Sean was worth every penny... thank you Chadwick!

William Christie    12/2006
Thank you very much for the truly excellent notes. I am now at work to implement your comments! Many thanks and I shall be re-submitting shortly.

Chadwick,

The feedback was great. I was looking for another
fresh set of eyes to provide us more insight or
another perspective. They have been
very helpful.


Tina Juarez    12/2006
I want to thank you all for helping me bring the script to the level where it receives this kind of recognition. Tell my evaluator that the suggestions continue to bear fruit.

Nate Gubin    12/2006
Thanks for the notes. The ideas on how to fix the problems are great and will be very helpful with the rewrite.

Jo Andrews    12/2006
Just a quick thanks - you've again given me much to think about - and to work from. I appreciate the careful and well considered notes I received. All best.

Marco Ramadori    11/2006
My rating of my evaluator: 8/10
My rating of my overall experience: 9/10

Forrest Green III    11/2006
My evaluator's understanding of the story was a 10 out of 10.
My evaluator's ability to provide useful constructive criticism was a 10 out of 10.
My overall experience with Script Pimp to date was a 10 out of 10.

The suggestions are clearly given in an intelligent order. As I followed them, it eventually became obvious to me how my evaluator was helping to develop the script. From the large issues to the small details as well as it's readiness for professional circulation.

Xavier Keough    10/2006
I appreciate the email and taking the time to share your thoughts. Much appreciated.

Jimmy Lindgren    10/2006
The meeting with Sean McKittrick was awesome. It was worth every penny to consult him. Keep up the good work

Forrest Green    10/2006
I wanted to thank you for all of the contributions that helped me to get a CONSIDER on the script, while I work on taking the script to the next level.

Paul Johnson    10/2006
Thanks for this - very useful.

Tom Pavlock    09/2006
I loved the feedback. It is very helpful, and as I was reading it, I was already planning where I could make the changes suggested, and how.

Thanks again for your input, and I look forward to tweaking and resubmitting the script.

Ivan Pestrikov    09/2006
Guys, you are the best! Your notes are perfect!

Anthony Furlong    09/2006
Great stuff, love the notes.

John & Megan Richardson    09/2006
Thank you for your comments on our script. As always, the comments are astute and extremely helpful. They allow us to look at the script in a new way while offering the guidance we need and appreciate to once again knock it up a notch or two.

Thank you again.

Marissa Cerar    08/2006
I just want to thank Sean McKittrick for granting me such a thoughtful analysis of my script. The work that will result from our conversation is really going to take my script to the next level.

For a 26 year old writer from the Midwest (who, by the way owns Donnie Darko and is in love with it), it meant so much to hear his words.

Thanks again.

Paul Johnson    08/2006

Thanks immensely. All I can say to the notes provided is, wow!

The level and value of detailed analysis has exceeded my expectation. This is without question the most useful, constructive and informed feedback I’ve yet received – real value for money.

The comments reveal a great deal of engagement with my screenplay – and instinctive understanding of what I’m trying to do. The feedback is well-taken, so I’ll spend the next few weeks polishing it up in hopes of getting you guys interested in loving it. (Writing at a PC in Cape Town makes me more dependent on services like yours than most!)

Anyway, thanks immensely. These have been the best bucks yet spent in bringing my story to life!

Cheers

Paul

It was awesome getting a 'Consider', and thanks for the great feedback and suggestions yet again. I am rewriting feverishly and will resubmit soon.

Thanks and regards,

Thanks for the notes, the endorsement and all your help so far on this script. I'm going to study the notes and come back to you with some questions before I do a polish.

Thanks again,

Dear Script Pimp,

Thank you all, especially my long suffering reader, for all the assistance you've given me on this script.

Your suggestions have been honest, insightful and generous not to mention instrumental in shaping the story.

With your help its development has progressed way beyond my expectations.

Should you decide it needs more work, I'll be happy to go back to the drawing board. With each of your suggestions I feel the story gets better and better.

So, again, thanks to everyone.

Regards,

Susannah Farrow.

Scott Rohlf    07/2006
I am very appreciative of the FAST!! constructive critique that I received on my script. The reader's insights into necessary changes in the storyline and the character were taken "to heart." Would highly recommend your service to new writers such as myself.

Marissa Cerar    07/2006
Thank you so much for your amazing and thoughtful notes. This service has been amazing.

Pam White    07/2006
Thank you for your prompt response and analysis of my screenplay. I look forward to working with you.

Andy Kumpon    07/2006
Evaluator - 10 out of 10 stars
Overall experience - 9 out of 10 stars

The reader was on top of their evaluation and made great suggestions. Everything was taken into consideration, and the initial feedback sparked other issues that were not even brought up, that, in retrospect, have made the characters and their relationships even stronger.

Gary Wright    07/2006
Thank you for your notes - they got me thinking about things I hadn't considered before - always a good thing! I certainly will use them, and will let you know if they help me!

AK Productions    07/2006
GREAT NOTES. THE SCRIPT HAS IMPROVED BY LEAPS AND BOUNDS (WELL, AT LEAST I HOPE SO.)

Mark Davidson    07/2006
Thanks very much for your comments.

Chandra Kilaru    07/2006
Your readers had some very valid points which will make the script even better.
It was very educational to see how a professional producer and writer thinks about
things.



Lee Brandt    07/2006
Thank you so much. Your evaluators made some very, very good points.
They make sense. I will incorporate them. Thanx.

Lee

Gary Wright    07/2006
Dealing with Script Pimp has been a pleasure, right down the line. I'd written a lot of drafts of this thing already, and was relieved to be done with it. But then I got your development notes, which were so smart, so encouraging, and loaded with valuable suggestions. Your analyst's sensitive, intelligent reading of my work made me willing, no, eager , to give my script a pretty substantial structural overhaul (and what a difference for the better - thank you thank you thank you!). Wow. You give sage advice, and you make me want to write - I can't put a price on that! I may be in love! I'll be a repeat customer for sure!

Yours,

Gary Wright

Susan Beneville    07/2006
Chadwick -

Thanks for the excellent notes. It is clear the
reader "got" the story and the suggestions are very helpful.

I will take some time to do a re-write and re-submit it for further notes.

Thanks again,

Susan Beneville

Amanda Montecinos    07/2006
I rated my evaluator a 10 out of 10, and gave my overall experience with Script P.I.M.P. an 8 out of 10.

Thanks for your consideration.

John Simpson    07/2006
Thanks for the great coverage, guys! A lot of valuable info to work with, and easily understandable. The problem I've had with previous coverage reports is that I didn't think the readers caught all of the subtleties I injected into the script, thereby misinterpreting crucial story elements. You not only caught them, but mentioned a few that hadn't occurred to me, and gave some great advice on what possible directions to take the story.

Thanks again for everything. It was well worth the price of admission.

Brian Alexander    07/2006
Your notes on my script really helped me focus on the problem areas and make huge strides in the way the story develops. Not only
that, but your feedback will make me a better writer in the future, because the concepts you covered were universal enough that I will
hopefully be better able to spot the weakness on my own in the future.

By far the best investment I've made in my future as a writer.

Danika Dinsmore    07/2006
Thanks, guys! I'll take great consideration of your notes.

Simon Williams    07/2006
Thank you for the great insight and advice. I am very happy and inspired. I will be thinking hard on all suggestions you made and possible impovements for my script.

Philip Mayes    07/2006
Over the last few drafts I have seen my script improve greatly and become a screenplay that I'm very proud of. In fact, I would say it is the best I've written, with your help.

The suggestions you made in your first review were astute and accurate. Pointing out the typos and the weird vagaries of screenplay formatting were essential to me.

Subsequent reviews sharpened the screenplay and strengthened the drama. I can say the process was a highly satisfactory one, and
an education that has helped me improve as a writer.

Anthony Furlong    07/2006
You have given me confidence in my ideas and some of your suggestions have been overwhelming. I must praise your criticism. Self taught this is my first screenplay, you've helped me heaps.

Heather Poundstone    04/2006
Thank you very much!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Derek Pierce    04/2006
Dear Chadwick,

Just wanted to say, what a great service. I recieved your notes, and was encouraged. It was an eye opener to see the script through someone else's eyes, and I can definately see what the evaluator is getting at. I'll definitely be reworking and resubmitting next month.

Drew Eggleton    04/2006
I just want to say that these are THE best notes I have ever recieved!

Curt Burdick    04/2006
We must compliment the manner and speed with which you addresses our concerns.

Thank you, you exceeded our expectations.


Jeff Romaniuk    04/2006
Thank you for taking the time to clear up things for me - I also appreciate your critique on the Logline and Synopsis - I look forward to a resubmit in the near future!

Thomas Lloyd Huillier    04/2006
Thank you for the exceptional notes. They bring to my attention things I'm ashamed to say that I had scarcely considered, if at all. I find myself looking at the story in a whole new way, with lots of exciting ideas on how to improve it. Thanks again for doing such insightful work, it was worth every penny to me.

Shola Olawuyi    04/2006
THANKS A MILLION FOR THE NOTES. IT WAS REALLY AN EYE OPENER.

Eddie Mensore    04/2006
Evaluator's ability to provide useful constructive criticism: 9

I truly thought your notes were spot on... I needed someone to point out the problem areas that for some reason I didn't want to admit. Thanks!

Tina Juarez    04/2006
My evaluator: 10
My overall experience: 10

A very helpful analysis. I plan to use it to revise my script and resubmit, hopefully, to the same evaluator.

Beyond the analysis, I was surprised and pleased the evaluator was familiar with a little known (in the United States) historical figure I used in my story.

Jamison Spittler    04/2006
My evaluator: 10
My overall experience: 10

Lightning-fast turnaround, but also a really thorough analysis. Despite all of the areas that needed work, I felt encouraged and energized by the evaluator's comments. They communicated quite diplomatically, phrasing things in a way I could hear them without any defenses rearing their ugly heads.

I thought this evaluator did an excellent job! And has REALLY helped strengthen my script.

Michael Owen    04/2006
The consultation service provided by Script P.I.M.P. is a undeniably the best consultation service I've ever encountered. Never have I had anyone read that deeply into my script. They were able to pull forth its strengths,
expose its weaknesses, and the whole time I found myself in complete agreence with every suggestion. With the aid of my consultant I will now be able to build my script up to achieve its maximum potential. This is a great service, and I would recommend it to any writer looking to make the most out of their screeplay. Thanks again.

Tonya Williams    04/2006
Thank you for the insightful notes. I'm excited about re-submiting.

Adam Christopher    04/2006
I wanted to thank you, Sean, and the rest of your team for working hard to have a resource like Script P.I.M.P. available.

Within the first 30 minutes of my consultation with Sean, my expectations were already exceeded by not only his heartfelt understanding of what my script is trying to be, but also his style of critique and the point of view he brought to the table of ideas. By the end of our session, I had grown as both a writer and a story teller.

I already have, and will continue to, recommend Script P.I.M.P. to other writers.

All the best to you and Sean (and Southland Tales!).

Keep up the great work!

Hampus Carlsson    04/2006
Thank you for your accurate evaluations.

I have learnt a lot from you and your evaluations.

Michelle Marx    04/2006
I am really impressed by your notes. They’re informative, on target and make refining so much less formidable to take on. I’m not sure what I expected, but I am happily surprised.

I truly thank you. I think you’re a really cool organization and I’m happy I signed on.

You’ve helped give me the impetus to rework the script. I’m already into it now and will resubmit as soon as I feel it’s ready.

Brian Ivey    04/2006
Thank you for the feedback on my script. Your notes were thorough and insightful and they will be very helpful in future drafts.

I really appreciate the time and thought that you put into this. I look forward to using your service again in the future.

Michael Owen    04/2006
The consultation went great. I was definately worth the trip. The story will benefit a considerable amount once the changes are made. Thanks a lot.

Phoebe Hackett    04/2006
I just wanted to say I am very, VERY happy with the script analysis I received (criticisms well taken, compliments much appreciated), and plan to revise in the next few weeks.

Once again, the notes were very helpful and insightful. This script was read by a number of people in the industry several years ago. We got many of the same criticisms -- no surprise -- but Scriptpimp's critique was definitely more specific, and thus far more useful.

So thanks -- and I'm going to dust off another script and send it along, as well -- shoulda done it a couple of years ago!

Mike Townsend    03/2006
Thanks for the quick turnaround on the notes. I appreciate all the thought/detail. They're a huge help.

Greg Moss    03/2006
Sincere thanks to the reader who provided coverage on my screenplay. Exactly the kind of constructive feedback I was hoping for! I look forward to implementing the recommended changes and submitting the next draft. Thanks again!

Jamison Spittler    03/2006
Thanks for your help. Looking forward to my new coverage. This is a great service!

Steve Best    03/2006
I’d appreciate it if you’d pass on to the reader of my script how helpful his or her notes are. We will read and re-read them a few more times and incorporate either the letter or the spirit of them into subsequent drafts. Regards and thanks.

Cathy and Paul Bruno    03/2006
Cathy and I want to thank you for another good coverage. Looks like we’re getting close to a good script, which is very exciting. Cathy and I truly enjoy the writing journey with our reader. She does such a great job. We are very grateful she has lent her talent to help our work.

Thank you again for all you have done for us over the past two years. It is greatly appreciated.

Andy Demsky    03/2006

Dear Mr. Clough,

Thanks for the quick turnaround of the notes. First off, I'd like to say how thorough and insightful they were.
Plenty of good, constructive criticism. And the positives were
encouraging enough for me to want to fix this and get it right.


Daniel & Todd    01/2006
Dear Chadwick:

Thank you for the prompt turnaround. There's no indication on the coverage who the analyst was. But whoever it was, color us impressed.

We found the comments to be extremely insightful and we'll do our best to
implement them into the script.

Again, thanks for the prompt and helpful service!

Sincerely,

Daniel & Todd

Your reader certainly gave thought to the script and provided plenty of useful comments and even typo list.
Even though I don't agree with some of his comments, I recognize how well intended and knowledgeable they are.
Say thanks to the reader from me.
Also, the fast turn around and value could not have been better.
This is my second review from you and both have been tough but excellent.
Congratulations.

Thank you so much for the constructive criticism. It makes alot of sense and I felt some of the same things you have noticed, just couldn't put it into words, Ha a writer. I look forward to strengthening my screenplay. I am pretty proud of it, mistakes and all, considering it's my first. I will resubmit when it is completed.

I felt the my evaluator did a really good job in breaking down what things were good about my script, and what things were bad. I think he did a very in depth analysis, and I can tell from his evaluation that he is concerned about the quality of his work. As for Script Pimp itself, I'm happy about the overall experience. Screenplay feedback comes in a reasonable amount of time. The prices are reasonable.


P. Kurland    09/2005
I think your guys are excellent at their job -- the insight into storytelling is very good... your service is still the best I've come across.

S. Kidd    07/2005
I was very pleased with your service, the notes came back in ten working days as promised, the notes were thorough and opened my mind to a lot of things I hadn't taken into consideration when writing my script. Especially opening my mind to the importance of tone which wasn't something i had given much thought for, for my rewrite i found the coverage notes to be very helpful in progressing in a positive manner and i am very happy with your service and look forward to using it more and would encourage other's to do the same.

I was very impressed with the coverage I received. I ran a writer's group in Los Angeles for awhile and I know how difficult it is to find good feedback. I have been working on this script non-stop for awhile now and needed a fresh opinion, and I got exactly what I was looking for. The suggestions made were right on for the most part and I am re-energized to rewrite my story. Thank you for your help and I will definetely be resubmitting after July 1st and I hope to continue my relationship with your company.

Logan Harris    05/2005
I got my notes and have found them helpful. I've been sensing all along what you pointed out, but only with receipt of the notes has a picture formed in my mind. The notes brought it all to the forefront. Off to work I go.

Carlos Perez    05/2005
Thank you very much. Your comments are right on the money. My background
in theatre tends to make me rely too much on dialogue. I appreciate your
comments and I will work on the changes.

Lynitta Schaffer    05/2005
Your one-on-one consultation service is outstanding. I learned more and got more creative suggestions about how to make my script shine in this one two-hour session than I received after weeks of work with others. Sean McKittrick is worth his weight in gold.

Jason Coleman    04/2005

Stuart Flack    03/2005
Many thanks (once again) for your persistently intelligent observations and advice. I hope the next draft is worthy of both our efforts.

A. Goldberg    03/2005
Every time I've used Script PIMP's coverage service I have received more than I bargained for. The insightful development notes together with their personal attention and industry knowledge has guided me to signing with a manager. I will continue to use Script PIMP for all future projects.

A. Malheiro    03/2005
Just wanted to take this opportunity to state how much I appreciated your dilligence in delivering the development notes. Currently on a hectic schedule, it took me a while to get to them, thus the late feedback. However, I honestly feel you have shown me what my script was lacking and have given me clear direction on what corrections should me made. In not so many words, thank you.

C. Dale    03/2005
Thanks for the notes on my script... Your excellent analysis was incisive, thorough, and nailed many of the story flaws I had concerns about. I'm pounding out the rewrite now, and I look forward to working with Script P.I.M.P. for additional feedback as I continue to hone this material.

Simon Williams    03/2005
To every prospective screenwriter out there. Coverage service is more about trust than 2 typed pages of notes. If we can't trust that the analyst and their recommedations are made with more than a barest whiff of attention to the vision we have on the page then receiving coverage can be frustrating beyond our wildest dreams.

In the last year, over and above his company providing simply great coverage, Chadwick Clough at SCRIPTPIMP has made sure that his company has operated to earn my trust. And even though I have not yet received a consider or recommendation I know I am working with a company that wants me to get there as much as I do.

Kelly M.    03/2005
I just had a consultation with Sean McKittrick and I was very pleased with the results. He started with a general overall commentary on my screenplay and then a page by page analysis. His suggestions were greatly appreciated and I cannot wait to incorporate them into my screenplay. A fresh set of eyes, eyes that have seen the business is the only way to go.

Thanks Sean and Chadwick.

Jaramogi N.    03/2005
Thanks very much for your professional advice. Your comments are very helpful in fine-tuning my script.

The evaluation is straight to the point, real, and that's what motivates me to be a better script writer. Keep up the good work.

Todd Bronson    03/2005
[My] evaluation was exceptional... It was well worth the price for the helpful suggestions of tightening dialogue (with constructive examples) and the incorporation of a red herring. Everything I was second-guessing was brought up in the evaluation. The reviewer reinforced my piece of mind in the script as a whole and offered user-friendly, constructive criticism to produce something of better quality on the next rewrite. Thanks for your help -- I will recommend your service without hesitation.

Robert Burke    02/2005
Thank you so very much for the quick turnaround. Very helpful notes. Worth every penny. The notes will be very instrumental for my second draft

Matt Savelloni    01/2005
I just had a great talk with Sean. He was very enthused about the script and the rewrite based upon his notes. He mentioned something about Sundance and possibly trying to show it around.

Once again, I appreciate all of your hard work and interest in Sins of the Father. The Pimp is an incredible resource, inspiring even. If you need anything else from me, please let me know.

Vicky Sanders    01/2005
I did a phone consultation with Sean a few days ago. I am excitedly revising my script per his advice. Just wanted to let you know how pleased I am with him. I'm sure I will do well because of his added efforts.

I was also amazed at how well he knew my story, almost better than I did. He gave me tips on better connecting a couple of my characters to my plotline. Pointed out a few flaws I didn't even know I had. Plus more. As I revise, I can tell my script is definitely getting better.

I especially enjoyed the phone consultation because I could ask questions as we went through my script. I felt perfectly at ease with Sean and as we worked together, I felt like I was working with my bestfriend. He truly wants new writers to succeed.

Thank you for your services, as I will be contacting you back for my future needs.

Simon Williams    01/2005
Thank you very much for the opportunity to have a thorough reevluation done.
I still have work to do but at least the reader provided the more specific
help and assistance that I need. I am very appreciative of the attention to
detail he provided in his review.

I appreciate the help and hopefully I will have a redone script in a few
more weeks.


C. Stephen Foster and Chuck Pelletier    01/2005
Dear Sean,
It was such a pleasure to meet with you to discuss our script "Rainbow Sticker". Your notes and observations really helped us to see the holes in our story and simple, doable solutions to fix them. Your advice and guidance was top-notch. Thank you doesn't go far enough.

Tristan Strange    01/2005
Thanks very much mate.

R.C. Fritz    01/2005
Thank you for your coverage notes!! It has added a new dimension and possibilities to my storyline.

Tamura Shure    01/2005
Thank you very much for taking the time to answer my question. I think your company is just wonderful, and will recommend it. Also I want to say that once I've completed my next draft, I will definitely get it back to Sean for consultation, as he's amazing also.

Thanks for everything.

James Harmon    12/2004
"comments are concise, apt, and highly instructive- invaluable for learning the craft of storytelling. Thank you."

Tamara Shure    12/2004
Dear Evaluator:

Thank you very much for taking the time to answer my question. I think your company is just wonderful, and will recommend it. Also I want to say that once I've completed my next draft, I will definitely get it back to Sean for consultation, as he's amazing also.

Thanks for everything, TS

"Dear Script Pimp~ Our evaluted script "Minotaur" which you gave a
consider, has been optioned by a producer/director named Zachary
Weintraub. His credits can be checked on Imdb. Thanks for all your help,
and we look forward to sending you further scripts in future. -Ade
Adeyoyin and Ben Bamidele"

David Porter    12/2004
I was very impressed with the development notes that I received last week. A quick service. Insightful, too.

Jane Edwards    10/2004
Thanks very much for your feedback. It has been immensely helpful to see my work with more distance. I have been over your notes several times and made changes that you suggested.

Anyhow, this process is so anonymous but I do remember there is someone behind the notes who put time and excellent effort into it, which I
appreciate.

Scott Grant    10/2004
Thank you for the fast turnaround on the
script. The notes are very constructive, and the reader identified issues with the script that I was concerned about, as well. In fact, I can't think of any issue with the characters or structure that I had, that your reader didn't also touch on, which tells me they were quite
thorough in their reading and in indentifying the weaknesses in the script. Their notes have given me a number of ideas, which I will ponder before embarking on a re-write.

Danny Sheehy    10/2004
Your original feedback started me on the re-write path and I believe the second set of comments will help me reach my best final draft. And thanks again for a very fine data base - you have put a lot of work and thought into compiling it and it is an invaluable source for any screenwriter.

James Harmon    09/2004
"A sensitive reader with good knowledge of the craft and the ability to communicate it in language that carefully defines its use of any esoteric script-world jargon."

Gary Karibyan    09/2004
I found the coverage to be very useful since I did recognize some of my mistakes. This is the best evaluation I got so far. It's clear and straight to the point, compared to some management companies and agencies who told me how good the script was or what should i have written... Obviously, this didn't help me at all and I realized i was stuck in this eternal loop and somewhat disappointed of their overages. I preferred script pimp's coverage which was tougher and honest and more challenging. I did also appreciate the overall quality of the coverage presentation and the correspondance. I found it very professional and inviting.

Bill Tremblay    09/2004
Thank you. Your understanding of the strengths and weaknesses of my
script are going to be helpful. The problems are big. I have to build
the relationship between the two main characters by starting the action
closer to the climax.
When I get the script reworked I'd very much like to have you be the
person who reviews it. Please tell me your name so I can request you on
my "resubmission form." I like the fact that your company requires at
least a month before resubmission. It means you know your business.


Paul Bruno    09/2004
Could you pass along my thanks to my script reviewer for turning around my coverage so quickly? I truly appreciate the excellent customer service!

I am working on the the reviewers suggested changes and they are making the story sing. I am humble and grateful to have someone of such obvious talent helping make these scripts all they can be. Thank you for all your continued help and support.

Jenean Morrison    09/2004
Thank you so much for the wonderful notes on my script. The reader really took the time to not only explain the problems with my script, but to offer amazingly helpful suggestions for the rewrites. I have been given so much helpful information that I feel like I have just taken an entire course on screenwritng. I have a much clearer understanding the things that need to happen in my screenplay to make this story work. The notes were so encouraging and inspiring that I can't wait to get started on rewrites. You gave me a "pass", but I will give you a "recommend" to every writer I know!

David Lancaster    09/2004
I just wanted to write to say thank you. A while back, you reviewed my screenplay "Voices" and provided me with a lot of great feedback. Not only where your notes constructive, they were written in a supportive tone when it could have been easy to condescend and ridicule. I have read your notes at least a couple dozen times and have found your notes to be very insightful.

I'm am on my way of finishing my second draft, and I'm please with where the second draft has taken me.

Aaron Goldberg    09/2004
I have been extremely pleased with the feedback for this script, both in the original notes and the notes on my re-submission. The notes were insightful and very helpful. I will continue to use your service, and I look forward to making some changes and re-submitting this script to your senior story analyst. Thanks so much!

Kevin S.    09/2004
Good news! My script has just been optioned! They're a new company up in Ontario and
tell me they plan on this being their first big project.

As you can imagine this is a pretty huge moment for me, and it never could have happened without you guys. I've also submitted to them outlines for the two sequels I have planned. They like them as well, so I'm starting work on those and plan to work with you guys developing them through the Writers Workshop, like I did with the first one.

Thanks for all your help, and however I can return the favor let me know.

Michael Raymond    08/2004
I just wanted to express my gratitude for
your feedback regarding the script. There was some invaluable insights regarding the story and its structure, and if and when I find the time and energy (my kids and day job keep me in a perpetually exhausted state), I
look forward to re-visiting the project.

Jayson Sutcliffe    08/2004
I cannot begin to tell you how GLAD i am now that I have received your notes, because many of the topics you touched on have been my 'concerns' all along... and now submitting to ScriptPIMP was something I wanted to do off
my own back, purely for peace of mind.. and now I have it. My co write is leaving for LA on Sept 6 to attend a few pitch festivals, so its a win or lose situation now and we have nothing to lose. Therefore, I'll be taking on board as much as I can from your feedback and doing the best overhaul I can in the shortest amount of time possible.

Peter D. Skagen    08/2004
My evaluator: Excellent. Over the top, especially considering the reasonable cost of the service. He's obviously a pro, offered nothing but smart suggestions for improvements in all areas (all of which I used), read the material very carefully, gave generously, and clearly communicated it all to me in his coverage. Very impressive. Thank you.

Luigi Santo    08/2004
Thank you so much for your coverage of my script. I found the coverage to be insightful, informative and most importantly,
very supportive.

I will definitely be taking up the reviewer’s
recommendations and will rewrite my script before submitting it again for more thoughtful comments.

Please pass on my sincere thanks to the reviewer.

Robert Rogers    08/2004
Please forward a big thanks to Sean McKittrick for our consultation yesterday. It was a pleasure meeting him.

He really had an incredible amount of great
suggestions to tighten my screenplay and make it more suspenseful and funny. I'm pretty jazzed about putting his suggestions to work!

Donovan Flynn    08/2004
I have had a chance to review the script comments and I would like to just say THANKS for the brutal honesty, it's funny that sometimes you know what's wrong with your story but because it's like your child you hate to criticize it (nobody ever likes to admit their child is kind of ugly!).

I will take the suggestions to heart and look at ways to improve/rework/restart the script- again pass along my thanks to my evaluator and you can let he/she know I will FOR SURE be resubmitting for him/her to re-evaluate.

Dave Haddock    08/2004
I just wanted to drop you a line and thank you for the meeting with Sean yesterday. It was amazingly helpful to hear his feedback. I couldn't have asked for a more constructive and insightful review. The meeting sent me scurrying for a corner to write in. Thanks again and please pass my eternal gratitude to Sean.

Debi Tuccio    08/2004
This screenplay is very special to me. My Dad, Joseph, who is the co-author, passed recently of lung cancer. Since he put so much into this story, I hope one day to hear the words he wrote and see the scenes he imagined come
alive. My evaluator was so respectful of the story and critiqued it with such care I feel my next draft will be one step closer to making this happen.

Scriptpimp is one of the few Companies that really cares about seeing a writers dream fulfilled by offering so much and asking so little. It's hard enough to go through this process without having someone picking the last cent out of your pocket.

I look forward to starting my next rewrite and sending it off to your company for a second review.

Lee Brandt    07/2004
Thank you so much for your excellent development notes on my script. I have looked through them, and agree with pretty much 98% of all the concerns and suggestions you gave me. I consider my money very well spent with you.

There was so much valuable information that it'll take a couple of days just to process it all. I definitely plan on re-submitting the script after a re-write. Please let my evaluator know how much I appreciate his/her work.

Craig Richards    07/2004
Thank you for your very detailed development notes. They're spot on and I'll get down to implementing changes those in a re-write that'll hopefully bring my screenplay up to par with what's there in the spec market. Many thanks for a great service.

Aaron Goldberg    07/2004
Evaluator (grade): 10
My overall experience (grade): 10

I was extremely pleased with the quality of the coverage and the quick turnaround time. The coverage was insightful, and not only pin-pointed the weaknesses in my story, but the reader gave me excellent ideas on possible ways to solve those weaknesses. I'm currently making changes and I will definitely re-submit the new draft to the same evaluator. Please thank him/her for me!

Tom Schiavetta    06/2004
I recently received my coverage of a re-submission and wanted to let you know what a great job I think you do. All the criticism is spot on and very helpful. I am planning a re-write and would like to re-submit the script a second time.

James P. Barker    05/2004
Thanks for the great analysis--I've passed my script around to a few services so far, and the feedback has all been somewhat positive with "lots of potential", but these notes were the best so far detailing some of the problems. I look forward to resubmitting it again in the future, as well as another script I'm working the kinks out of.

Kevin S.    05/2004
I started sending my script in about a year and a half ago. Working with my evaluator through five or six drafts, I was able to get my script up from a pass (and a pretty dismal one at that) to a recommend. I could never have done it without his help. His insight is invaluable, and very importantly, he respects the writers vision. He works to see what the writer is trying to achieve, then helps with clues and suggestions to help make your own story the best it can be. His notes have never failed to provide me with a whole new rush of ideas.

(name withheld per request of author)

Joe Calabrese    05/2004
ScriptPIMP gave me, by far, the most concise, thoughtful and detailed notes I have ever received on a project. I agreed with all of the recommended changes and I truly feel I now have a tight, marketable script, which I would not have had without scriptPIMP’s help. Thanks guys, you're great!

Sean Kerr    04/2004
I was just like to thank you for all your help with setting up the meeting with Sean. What a fantastic man!!

The meeting was invaluable and I have to say that he left me feeling totally inspired and encouraged. Sean's knowledge, expertise and
direction have been the best thing to happen to my career so far and would you please pass on my thanks to him for taking the time to help
me.

Chris Marton    04/2004
Many thanks for you notes on my script and the kind comments. I shall be taking them on board while I consider any rewrites for future drafts.

Dave Avina    04/2004
Thank you very much! I feel the development notes are well worth the $195 and way way beyond the critique of friends.

Mike Vogel    03/2004
This is the second script I've sent to scriptpimp and the comments on both have been insightful and cut right to the heart of the problems with the scripts. You're helping me become a better screenwriter. Thanks!

Susan Boyer    03/2004
Thank you very much for the this incredibly insightful feedback! We will work hard on our revision and will definitely re-submit the script to you for re-evaluation.

Paul B.    03/2004
Laina, wow, that's so kind of you to send a note. I will gladly state that this would not have happened without the find coverage and guidance I received from Scriptpimp's coverage service. The ideas and advice given helped take the script to the next level. Between the blessing of God and help from Scriptpimp we made it this far.

Steven Ford    03/2004
I just read your review notes. Wow, they are out#%*$&#standing! It's remarkable what a fresh pair of eyes can see. Thanks is too lame a word.

Aubrey Singer    03/2004
The notes are awesome. We're very impressed with not only the attention to formatting, but the insight into structure.

Benjamin J. Plesha    03/2004
Thank you for your professional help on how to make my script a better one!

Robb Hanna    03/2004
Hi Laina, Thanks for getting the evaluator to email me the development notes on time. He is awesome, and was extremely helpful - more intuitive than any other coverage I've had done before. I'm impressed and grateful.

Adewole A.    03/2004
Hi Laina, I hope you are well. I recently received an e-mail from Everton Scott of My2Centences asking to read our script Minotaur, which was given a consider by scriptpimp. Apparently, the script was mentioned to him by your CEO. I have sent the script to Mr Scott and although I realise that he may not find it suitable, this is not the only contact we have had through your agency. Therefore, myself and my co-author would just like to send our sincere thanks to everyone concerned at scriptpimp for making it so much easier for our script to circulate. We are determined to make the next script we send to you a recommend, and then that will make your life easier as well!

Bernie    03/2004
Hi Laina. Also, my thanks to the evaluator. The notes were clear and concise with very
constructive and helpful suggestions.

Furqan S.    02/2004
Just a short note to say how wonderful I found Sean McKittrick's analysis of my script. I felt he unlocked things in my story that I wouldn't have done myself and gave me concrete steps to take in order to make it a sellable script. Full Marks - 10 out of 10. He seems like a very nice guy as well. Also, well done to you guys at Scriptpimp for providing this service

Christina Hazelwood    02/2004
From my perspective, the experience was well worth the money and the hassle/time. Sean McKittrick provided me with the validation I have been seeking for some time.
The reason I thought Sean would be a good evaluator of my screenplay was because he produced Donnie Darko. It lead me to believe that if he understood that screenplay, there's a good chance he'd understand mine, and I was right. He totally, totally got it! He got the nuances and my humor too. It was great! It was really great to talk to someone who actually understood it. It gives/gave me a great sigh of relief. I was seriously beginning to wonder about the industry as whole. I was beginning to wonder about the level of intelligence, knowledge, ability and overall capacity of the people who are supposedly supposed to comprehend screenplays. It made me start to feel that there was no hope for Hollywood and no hope for me either. I was starting to feel that if these are the folks running things over there, it's not a group I want anything to do with.
Sean is the first person who really understood what I was trying to achieve and offered helpful, constructive commentary that I can hopefully use to make my screenplay be more of what I intended it to be. Almost every single other evaluator, instead of offering comments to help me improve the screenplay I had written, offered comments about how to turn the screenplay into something they would have written or something they would like to see written. I was seeking commentary on what I was writing. He's the first person who offered comments that would help me polish MY screenplay, as it is, not tell me how they would have written it. Kudos to Sean, to Laina, to the whole shebang!

Joseph Bauer    02/2004
I'd just like to thank the reader of my screenplay, F.B.R. I found the feedback very helpful and insightful throughout. So thank you very much for giving feedback on the screenplay in its entirety and giving thoughtful remarks throughout. I look forward to resubmiting my screenplay sometime in the future.

Camilla    01/2004
Dear Laina, Can you please thank Sean on my behalf for his helpful notes? It was a nice surprise to have my script read by him. I think he`s a great addition to an already great team.

Otto Holm    01/2004
Sean gave some cool suggestions that will only make the story better. I only wish we would have had more time. The two hours just flew by.

Gia Gordon    01/2004
Sean was an enormously thorough and dedicated Evaluator. His investment of time and attention to my script was above and beyond what I had anticipated - even offering to forward it on to certain industry contacts after I complete a polish. How rewarding for me that someone could be so engaged by my writing! There's screenwriting coverage and then there's meta-screenplay analysis - that's the deeper level of examination that looks at structural nuances and emotional evocativeness. For many screenwriters at that "certain level" (good but not yet great), this is a crucially necessary but rare component in our maturity as writers of movies. This is what Sean McKittrick gave to me. Bravo to him, and kudos to Chadwick and ScriptPIMP for hiring him to provide this much needed service. Many thanks.

Josh    01/2004
Thanks for helping me better understand the process. My notes arrived a couple of days later, and they are excellent -- worth every penny. No candy-coating, the reviewer made many incisive judgements and provided some clarity in ways to think about addressing the flaws in my script. Like a good teacher -- honest and encouraging enough to drive deeper thought and better work from me.

Stephen Treen    01/2004
I wanted to let you know that I just gained representation for my Scriptpimp recommened screenplay. I sent a query letter to Sheri Williams at the Williams Literary Agency,(who I found through your database). She loved script and signed me on as a new client.

Z.    01/2004
Gosh, Laina, I just have to tell you that the notes are BRILLIANT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have some major work to do, but am very encouraged! THANKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You guys--and this gall--are A-1!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yee-haw!

P.B.    01/2004
I was very pleased with the comments / suggestions made by my reviewer on my script... I felt every comment and suggestion had merit and showed the reviewer took the time to thoroughly review the script... and were presented in such a way as to be encouraging not degrading which helped in providing enthusiasm to do a rewrite based upon the feedback... One of the primary goals of submitting a work for coverage is to receive feedback that can make the script better and more marketable. I felt that the comments / suggestions met that goal and for that I am grateful. Lastly, I had trouble submitting my work through the website and Laina was very helpful in getting me over that hurdle which added to the satisfying customer experience. I have written ten scripts and based upon this experience I plan to submit them all to Script P.I.M.P. for coverage. Thank you for helping make my writing better.

Gary Miner    12/2003
Thanks for the good coverage on my script. It gives me something to shoot for. I know I can kick the script up another level if I follow your suggestions. I'm going to do another rewrite based on your notes. This critique is very valuable for the price. Thanks again and have a wonderful holiday.

D.L.    12/2003
Thank you for the detailed, concise criticism concerning my script. It was worth its weight in gold. I completed this work in conjunction with a workshop and it was edited by an instructor but at no time did I get the precise help, feedback, and guidance that you provided. The things you pointed out will be very helpful in the rewrite which I have begun. I look forward to resubmitting it as well as submitting other scripts that I have written.

Bradford Richardson    12/2003
I'm wildly impressed with the ease of submission, turn-around time and
over-the-top value of the notes I received from your Script P.I.M.P. screenplay evaluation service! I'll be recommending Script P.I.M.P. as often as I can."

D.W.    12/2003
The insights you offered will be very helpful in changing my script for the better. I probably don't have to tell you that it is difficult to get a valid, honest opinion from someone who knows what it's all about. Thanks for providing a valuable service. You may expect my re-submission in the weeks to come.

R.S.    11/2003
Just dropping you guys a quick note of thanks. The coverage I received was considered, well informed and positive. After a certain point you get 'snow blind' with regard to your own scripts and criticism of this quality gives you renewed impetus. I look forward to bouncing the script back your way after the rewrites! Thanks again.

B.H.    11/2003
I'm flattered and delighted at your comments regarding my script. One sits for hours and hours drafting and writing and tweaking dialogue, always hoping/believing/praying you've got a fun story and/or an interesting set of characters. But it's not until someone else likes it that I can claim vindication. So I'm humbled and thrilled.

J.R.    11/2003
Thanks so much for such an intelligent and well written letter. I really appreciate the time and effort on my behalf that went into it. Thank you for your assistance."

T.I.    09/2003
I received the feedback today, and find the criticism to be intelligent, thorough, and constructive. My thanks for another set of extremely helpful criticisms.

S.H.    09/2003
After sending my script to other services and paying an enormous amount of money, your coverage was the only one that gave me an inside depth of writing my thriller. I was able to follow a guideline, come up with a stake and make it believable. The way you broke down the coverage into different categories really helped. I would recommend your service to anyone in the future.

J.R.    08/2003
Thank you so much for your notes. I am going to give serious thought to these and I look forward to resubmitting it for your review. I'm going to recommend your service to everyone! Thank you. :)

S.S.    08/2003
Chadwick, Thank-you so very much for the development notes. It is obvious that my script reader is very competent. The advice I have received and the criticism is excellent. I now believe with your help I can transform my script into a million-dollar property.

S.S.    07/2003
Thank you. At last, expertise! The analysis was professional and precise. Please thank the reader for me. I'll get cracking on the suggestions for re-submission. They were extremely helpful and will serve the story well.

M.R.    07/2003
Thanks so much for the development notes. Although I received a pass, I thought the majority of the comments were extremely helpful.

B.E.    07/2003
You have made some very sound points that will be addressed. Your help is appreciated, keep up the good work. I'll be sending a new script to you soon. Thanks again.

H.S.    06/2003
This is to let you know that I did receive the notes. I found them eminently worth reading and thinking about. They have indeed been constructive. I want to congratulate you on running an up and up outfit.

A.M.    06/2003
Thanks for the feedback. It helps tremendously to see the point of view of an expert.

D.D.    06/2003
Hello. I just got through reading the development notes you did for my script and I must say I am very impressed by the amount of attention you paid towards my screenplay and by the quality of your feedback. I found it very well-placed and constructive. I will now re-work on my screenplay according to your feedback and will re-submit my screenplay as soon as I'm finished. Thank you.

G.D.    04/2003
I am a first time user of your services, and I was really impressed with the depth of the coverage. You really seemed to have an unbiased view of my work, and the changes you suggested were ones that made sense. Thank you for your insight and positive feedback.
