With this service, you'll work one-one-one with Ben throughout the development & outlining of your script. Each week you will submit your work to Ben in advance of the session, then receive feedback & guidance in the weekly session.
The service runs for 5 sessions* and takes you up through the completed detailed outline, at which point there will be additional options to purchase feedback on the script. Typically this is a weekly service but also available in both shorter and longer intervals. Available for 30- & 60-min TV as well as feature length movie scripts.
A great way to receive notes, obviously, but even more so this service is designed for people who could benefit from motivation, accountability, and deadlines. Ben will get you to the finish line, guaranteed.

You’ll come away with a clear understanding of what works about your script, what still needs work, and what specific actions you can take to bring it to the next level. And maybe most importantly, Ben will make sure you feel great about yourself for the work you've done and just as excited to make it even better. Consults are 60 minutes long and held over Zoom.

Have a TV or movie story at least partially outlined and are looking for feedback on it? This service is for you. Your story can be at any stage of outline -- general/structural, step-by-step, or detailed -- and Ben will read it, provide feedback and help you make the decisions that will advance you to the next stage of development. Leave feeling confident in your past decisions and excited to build upon them.
Length of session is 30-60 minutes, depending on how much work you’ve submitted beforehand.
Would you benefit from a soundboarding session before you start developing or outlining a TV or movie idea? This service is for you. We'll discuss & break the overall concept for the story and then come up with a simple story layout for the first episode or movie plot. You'll leave feeling confident, organized in your thoughts, and excited to tackle the project.
