As a director, producer, and instructor, I read scripts the way they'llactually be made. I give writers and filmmakers clear, practical feedback that
strengthens the story and makes it more producible, so the script on the page
is the one you can afford to shoot. I can help with:

• Written notes on story, structure, character and dialogue
• Production-minded feedback on locations, cast size, and scenes that drive up cost
• Prepping a script for financiers, fesitvals and fund applications
• Feedback on short films, features, and comedy or documentary projects.
  
  
  

A realistic budget is what gets an indie film financed, and what keeps itfrom falling apart in production. I'm a line producer with two decades of experience. I've budgeted and scheduled a variety of projects including Sundance features, documentaries, sketch comedies, and commercials.

• Build top-sheets and detailed budgets
• Break down scripts and create a draft shooting schedules
• Rework budgets for financiers, grants, and pitch packages
• Find savings without hurting what's on screen
