MEET THE SCRIPT NANNIES

The Script Nannies have appeared at various screenwriting forums, including The Austin Screenwriters Conference, "How to Beat the Odds In Hollywood" Screenwriting Conference in Las Vegas, The Arizona Black Film Showcase, and The Screenwriting Expo in Los Angeles.

Whether you need a Q&A industry guest at your writers group in-person or on-line, or would like the Script Nannies to serve on a screenwriting panel or run a day of seminars, we are happy and excited to offer our expertise and unique perspective.

Some sample seminars include:

THE FIRST PAGE TEST: A READER'S FIRST IMPRESSION What does your first page signal to a professional reader? Hollywood story analysts will reveal how a first impression may make or break their opinion of the entire script. Using first pages from well-known produced films as examples, we will highlight common beginner pitfalls and offer suggestions for how to grab a reader from the first page. Is your script ready to pass the test?

READERS: MYTHS AND MISCONCEPTIONS Are readers all 20-year-old interns out to eliminate you and your script? Does your script really get read? Can you avoid readers? What turns readers on and off? Does reading for producers and agents differ from reading for contests? Learn the true answers to these questions and many more from actual Hollywood story analysts.

HOW TO PUT YOUR SCRIPT TO BED Is your screenplay ready to be sent out to agents, producers, and/or contests? Professional story analysts will give you a checklist of elements to look for in your completed script, to ensure that it is ready for the competitive world of Hollywood.
