Third Draft: Script Analysis
One of the frustrations of screenwriting is that even when you’ve gone through endless re-writes
and finished your script, you still don’t know if it’s any good. Do other people get the jokes? Are
the scary bits scary, or dull? Are your characters quirky and interesting or just plain weird?
Third Draft is a script analysis program that answers those questions.
Operating on a seven-day turnaround, I will provide you with a detailed analysis of your
screenplay, and a follow-up phone call to discuss potential solutions.
A quick, easy answer to those nagging screenwriting doubts? That’s Third
Draft.

"It was an absolute delight to work with Don! Don did a fantastic job, he has a very
professional attitude, he is very knowledgeable and meets deadlines.
Don's pro-activeness and suggestions for improvement were very helpful. Will certainly work with
Don again in future. Many thanks,"

"I have been floored thus far with Don's overall abilities. What I contracted for has been met and
improved 1000 times over what I had anticipated. Heavily recommended for anyone that has already
had some 3rd party assurances that they have writing talent."

"I have worked with Don on three scripts over the
past 18 months, and I am looking forward to an ongoing working
relationship.
Creatively, he is highly imaginative, capable of
utilising both his own ideas and incorporating those of others to their maximum
potential. Don is very hard-working - he works fast, but cares - which means that it
becomes very energising for those he works with.
Tough deadlines are a challenge rather than a
problem, so if time is of the essence, Don is the ideal person to have on your
team."

Don is by far the fastest scribe I've had the
pleasure of working with. In fact, I am puzzled by how high the quality is; you would
think it would suffer accordingly.
Don is always just an email away, and didn't
hesitate to open up his phone lines despite us being in two different countries. Note
that he insisted on picking up the bill every time, which I thought was
class.
Don's educational background, with a Masters in
Screenwriting, plus his global travels and experiences, all come through and result in
rich, pointed prose. Highly recommended.
