HOW IT WORKS
We give individual scores from 1 – 10 in the following categories*:
PLOT
Is the plot well developed? For example, does it contain surprises, reversals, ‘no turning back’ moments and a compelling escalation?
CHARACTERS
Are these characters clear, engaging, credible? Do they jump off the page?
GENRE
Is there a clear genre? If it's a hybrid, are the genres working together in a way that supports your idea?
SETTING
Are the settings well realised, evocative and appropriate to the story?
STORY/THEME/PREMISE
Is it clear what your story is about? Is it original, compelling, intriguing?
*Your Overall Script Score is not derived from these individual category scores.

FEEDBACK ON OUR FEEDBACK
|
'I am pleased to have feedback that can help me make my script better.'
'Many thanks for the very helpful reader’s report.' 'I'm truly encouraged by the feedback and will tweak the story accordingly.' 'Thanks so much for this feedback - while there's much to improve (and great pointers to help me do that), there's also a lot of positives in there, particularly with regard to the humour. I wasn't sure whether to pitch it as comedy drama or not, but now I know!' 'I found the general information really tactful and positive. The comments about the protagonist's character are, I have to say, a fair cop. I've struggled with her but now have an idea how to change it.' 'Thank you. I didn't expect such detailed feedback.' 'Thanks for the feedback, completely understand what you mean by the episode feel around the piece and will keep this in mind on the rewrite.' |
