Story Editing and Script Development

In an effort to direct writers to generate a script that is viable, Liesl will read your piece, prepare notes and give feedback over Zoom or the phone. After the meeting, she will send your script with notes, and then follow up on your progress as requested.

Some things that will be considered;

  • What is meaningful, compelling or impactful?
  • What questions, bumps or confusion come up?
  • Is anything unclear in the story?

Notes come on three levels;

  • Primary notes reflecting gut impressions and overall structure
  • Deeper notes on things like action, character and scene structure
  • Finishing notes pertaining to details like punctuation and formatting

In addition to providing accessible feedback throughout the entire creation process, Liesl will provide resources on log lines, story spines, pitching and more, from her stack of extremely well organized notes.

$75/hour – For a script with standard formatting approximately 2hrs/30-45 pages.

Facilitation, Masterclasses and Hosting – $75 per hour

Writing, Story and Directing Workshops available for groups.
