Just a quick note to once again loudly sing Kristin’s praises. You could have searched far and wide but never have chosen a better person for this project. I can state this having worked with several editorial consultants, including two others on the screen adaptation of this book. I’ve found there is a wide disparity of talent, insight and dedication in this field. Thank goodness I’ve found the best.

Everything looks great. Thank you for your time and dedication!

BILL – screenplay developer

Hey Kristin, What more can I say…You hit it on the nose of what I was thinking. Thank you. And the 36 pages…All I can say is you write what I am thinking and I’m still blown away. I’m so glad I went with you and THGM. Thank you for fulfilling my vision on my screenplay. You see what I want to be seen to others. Thanks.

Here are the five steps the best screenwriters take to write a script:

What steps do top screenplay writers follow to write a TV script or movie screenplay?

  1. Logline – one or two sentence summary of the idea
  2. Treatment – a more complete summary, much like the synopsis of a novel
  3. Outline – defining the storyline, step by step
  4. Draft – the complete script, the raw screenplay
  5. Edit – as with any written document, good editing refines and perfects the screenplay

There is no rule that we have to go through all five steps. We can work from your logline, from your treatment or from your outline. Or we can combine the first three steps in a mish-mash of brainstorming. If you already have a book or book manuscript, we can write a screenplay adaptation of your novel. We have also adapted from graphic novels and from theatre scripts.

The finished script will reflect whatever input you provide in writing, by email or over the phone. Whether it is action or comedy or romance, whether it’s a feature film or a short film, whether it’s a TV pilot or a whole television series, our goal is to make you proud of your screenplay.

How to work with a screenplay writer – top tips for visionaries

Many storytellers come to our ghostwriting agency to find a writer for their movie manuscript.

There’s a difference between writing your own screenplay and outsourcing the work. Your ghostwriter will need to get inside your head, to understand your vision. You’ll have to give precise instructions so that the scenes turn out exactly how you envisage the story.

These tips will help you get the screenplay you need for the film or TV series you’ve been imagining.

What information should I give my screenplay writer?

  • Explain the story’s point of view (POV).
  • Create a plot line – the story arc.
  • List all the characters, from protagonist and antagonist to minor supporting characters.
  • List all the settings for the action.
  • Explain the moral of the story or the lessons to be learned.

Whose point of view?

Every story can be told from a variety of points of view (POV). This is as true on the silver screen as in a novel. Your choice of protagonist will shape the flavor of the movie. Often there is more than one point of view, which might switch one scene to the next. This is something to discuss with your ghostwriter.

Create a plot line.

You might not have all the twists and turns figured out, but you probably have the broad strokes. And you might have many or even all of the details. Whatever you have, whatever you want in the final screenplay, make a list.

Your screenplay ghostwriter might offer a number of suggestions to improve the plot. It’s your choice to accept some, all or none of them. But it is to your advantage to listen closely and consider the ideas. One of the benefits of working with a professional screenwriter is that you get ideas from somebody who’s been there before.

List all your characters.

There are two things you should tell your screenplay writer about each of your characters.

First, you should describe the character. What does each character look like? What does each character sound like? What are their various motivations? What are their relationships to each other?

Second, how does the story change each character? This is a question mostly for your protagonist, but also for the chief villain and for the protagonist’s best buddy and/or love interest. A movie progresses generally along two parallel tracks. One is the plot. The other is the main character’s growth and evolution.

A good scriptwriter can make characters do whatever you wish and evolve or grow in whatever way you like. Your job is to make sure that she fully understands what you expect form your characters.

List all the settings for the action.

One of the first things your ghostwriter will need to do is describe the settings. These typically are rooms or outdoor scenes. Each scene will have its own setting, although some scenes might have more than one, such as when one character pushes another through a window.

Settings will have to be described in detail. Your ghostwriter will need to know the details that are important to you. If details are not important, say so; your ghostwriter will create them to the advantage of your story.

What’s the lesson or moral of your story?

Every story has a lesson, whether reading or watching. When the audience gets up to ignore the final credits, your film will have changed their lives. This will happen whether you intend it to or not.

How do you want your film to change people’s lives? You have the choice, and your ghostwriter can shape the story to make that change.

Lessons don’t have to be overt, and they don’t have to come down on the audience like a hammer. A movie like The Matrix has many fascinating lessons, even if it’s camouflaged under the guise of fight scenes and technology.
