NEW WRITERS ARE WELCOME

 

Stories, novels and concepts adapted into screenplays

 

Studios and Production Companies rarely buy novels unless they are bestsellers. To get a story produced as a movie it is almost mandatory to submit it as a completed screenplay. Producers need to see how your story will work as a movie. If you have a story, novel, idea, or concept that has the potential to be a movie, we will develop and adapt it into a highly dramatic, visual screenplay, ready to present to producers, stars, and motion picture studios.  We can be your ghostwriter (you take all the credit) or we can share credit. It’s your choice. You can either market the screenplay yourself or we can work with you to market it to production companies, studios and agents.

 

Screenplay rewrites and ghostwriting

 

As the saying goes, screenplays are never written, they are rewritten. Sometimes it helps to have another writer collaborate with you to give your script an extra dimension, a new life. If your screenplay needs more work, we can enhance it for you and turn it into an exciting, commercial manuscript ready for the marketplace. We will improve your story structure, premise, motivations, characterizations, pacing, subplots, dialogue, construction of scenes, conflict, suspense, humor, action, and more. We can either be your ghostwriter (you take all the credit) or we can share screen credit and help you with the marketing. It’s up to you. By mutual agreement, we will submit the script to producers and studios.

 

You can participate during the writing process

 

Prior to our adapting your novel or rewriting or doctoring your screenplay, we will send you a detailed step outline/treatment of the new script for your approval. This will take approximately six weeks. We will welcome your suggestions or comments. After we complete the screenplay approximately six weeks later, we will again send it to you for your review and we will again welcome your comments or suggestions. We will then prepare a final draft of the screenplay including your input, at no additional cost to you. If you choose to have us take the screenplay into the marketplace by offering it to production companies, studios and agents, you will have the right of approval of all creative and financial decisions.

 

 

Our production companies

 

Joda Productions and Hollywood West Entertainment, our production companies, will consider all screenplays written or rewritten by us for development and production. While Hollywood Writers Studio writer-clients are given priority consideration, there is no guarantee that Joda Productions or Hollywood West Entertainment will produce any screenplay.
