To
make a great film you need three things - the script, the script and
the script.
-Alfred
Hitchcock
I’ve
hammered out a few film scripts recently- mostly shorts, with one
45-page piece. I’m looking for an online feedback site. Screen Adapter Andrew Davies
suggested I check out The Script Factory.
Although
full of info regarding screenwriting in general, it doesn’t seem to
be a site offering democratic feedback. I’ve got time to give up
for sharing critiques with other writers, but I’m not- as the site
invites me to- shelling out money for a professional critique. I’ll
still need more critiques after a post-pro-critique draft of my
writing, so is it worth paying right now? I think not. Writers Connect do a good job on feedback. Their help with The Mix and The Knife Job
has been invaluable. I can’t read out 45 pages of script to them,
though.
Anyone
want to read a terrorism conspiracy tale? Got an hour free? Get in
touch.
Does
anyone know what site I’m looking for? Where do people share
screenplays for feedback? Again, let me know. Let’s get on with it
and get our stuff out to local filmmakers.
ScriptXRay.com also doesn't offer feedback
ReplyDeleteSimplyscripts.com- collection of pro screenplays for us to read. You can submit finished scripts. Not for feedback though.

ReplyDeleteScripped claims to be "absolutely free", but asks you for bank details during registration. Dodgy. Formatting of your work is also not easy to follow.
