À propos de ce service
Who am I?
I'm an award-winning screenwriter who's worked in development for over 7 years delivering coverage to producers behind projects including RESERVATION DOGS, OZARK, THE ACCOUNTANT, THE IRISHMAN, and THOSE WHO WISH ME DEAD, as well as working directly with screenwriters like you to develop scripts that have won contests, been optioned, or led to signings. I've read for The Black List, AFF, BlueCat and Stage32.
What is script coverage?
Script coverage is an evaluation of a screenplay. In the film industry, you only get one chance to impress that perfect actor, studio, or agency. I'm here to give you the essential, honest evaluation and constructive feedback you need to ensure your project is ready when that opportunity comes.
What do I include in your coverage?
Your coverage comes with detailed page-by-page notes with actionable feedback to improve your script, a categorical score to help you know which elements of your script to focus on, a logline that helps you communicate your script idea concisely, and constructive feedback on your screenplay's premise, plot, characterization, dialogue, and commercial appeal.

FAQ
Do you use AI in your coverage?
Absolutely not. AI is a tool, but a very ignorant and not helpful one for what I do. Your audience is human people, not algorithms or AI. You will always need a human who experiences emotion to tell you what actually works vs. what doesn't on some level. There is no math to avoid that fact.
How do you evaluate scripts?
Most coverage providers will skew their feedback positive to give a more pleasant experience and avoid negative reviews. I'm always 100% honest, clear and constructive in my feedback. My goal is to help you create the best story possible, which cannot be achieved without accurate, honest assessment.
I can get coverage anywhere, why should I use you?
I used to regularly give script development notes to one of the greatest screenwriters of all time (acc to every top 5 list on the internet). He listened to me and took my notes because I am seriously that good. Very least, I can jailbreak your thinking and open your script up to new possibilities.
Will you provide coverage for producers, managers, agents, etc.?
Yes! I work with many managers, producers, and agents. I will deliver a pass, consider, or recommend rating for both the writer and the script + synopsis. I can also evaluate books, graphic novels, short stories, articles, classic Greek poems, and any other IP for adaptation with a custom gig offer.
Can I still place an order if my script is over 120 pages?
If your script exceeds the feature page limit, message me to discuss a custom gig. If it's 121-128 pages, chances are I won't care, but once you get into the 130+ range, it's a different ask. Packages are based on max length. In this case, you will need to purchase the package with the longer length
How many pages of notes will I get?
It's hard to give exact page counts because every script is different. I don't want to waste your time padding notes to reach a page count or leave out crucial feedback to stay under a page limit. Shorts are usually around 1-3 pages, TV coverage around 2-5, and Feature coverage around 4-6. Minimum.
I'm not sure your offer exactly what I'm looking for. Do you offer custom gigs?
Indeed! Message me and we can see if a custom gig is a good fit and I can create a custom offer. Film and TV are the mains, but I evaluate Plays, Pitch Decks, Treatments and so on. If you have an idea, a concept, a story -- and it's written down -- i'll happily consult with you on how I can help.
Have you ever sold a screenplay?
Yes! Twice. One in 2019 and one in 2021. I'm currently writing a movie sequel on assignment for a major studio. I'm repped by an agent and a manager at the top agencies in Hollywood. If I can do it, so can you! Let's get your script in tip top shape!
What criteria do you include in your scoresheet?
1) Premise/Concept 2) Structure/Style 3) Plot/Story 4) Characters 5) Dialogue Each category scored X/10, for a total of Y/50. Having read 1,000+ of scripts in the past few years and collected the data over that span, the average score I've given is: 34/50 (68%).
What does your best friend say about your writing?
"Pat is an amazing writer. The most psychically free individual I've met. He can conjure incredible imagery with no effort. I'm friends with a lot of good writers and he is the only truly talented person I know. It's like somehow he always pulls a pot of gold out of his @$$."

Patrick delivered a great critique of my screenplay, highlighting exactly which areas need work. I appreciate a reader that doesn't pull punches and he is exactly that. His score sheet is also very helpful - feeling similar to how a festival might rate your script. I would recommend.
