Script Consulting and Screenplay Analysis Rates
Script consulting rates for either Basic or Full Analysis are based on the length of the script: 30-minute sitcom,
60-minute teleplay or feature length screenplay. Additionally, Full Analysis of your script offers two choices
for follow-up consulting during rewrite.
IMPORTANT NOTE: In an effort to provide flexible, affordable options, the consulting fee for the
Basic Analysis of your script may be applied to a Full Analysis with Development Notes at a later time.
For example, if you submit a 60-minute teleplay for Basic Analysis ($85.00) and then decide you would
like to receive the development notes/10 followup sessions provided in the Full Analysis, the
consulting fee would be only an additional $85.00. You pay only the difference between
the Basic and Full Analysis.
