Script reports & Consultations

Outside of my own projects, I have worked with many other writers helping them to hone their own stories whether it's with structure, story, character or dialogue, or stepping in as a ghostwriter to edit and/or polish their scripts and screenplays.

 

I provide honest and constructive feedback in the form of detailed script notes.

My notes can usually be ready within a four-week turnaround upon receipt of payment.  Other packages on request (rewrites, formatting, script editing, script consulting from concept stage through to delivery, treatments, television bibles, short films etc).

​

I take full payment upfront.

As a consultant: I've worked for Universal Studios, John Calley Productions (Da Divinici Code), in addition to independent producers providing script reports and development notes.  I've worked as story consultant for BBC Worldwide, and taught workshops for the BBC Writersroom and I've also served as a judge for the BBC Writersroom competition, BBC Bites.  In addition, I have been a guest panelist on many leading industry events including at The London Screenwriters Festival and at BAFTA (The British Academy of Film and Television Arts). I am also one of the BFI's (British Film Institute) recommended script consultants.

 

 

As a writer: I'm a multi award-winning screenwriter, and creator of the ground-breaking, critically acclaimed BBC action series "Spirit Warriors" (nominated Best Children's Program, 2011 Broadcast Awards) starring Jessica Henwick (STAR WARS: THE FORCE AWAKENS, GAME OF THRONES, and upcoming Marvel TV show IRON FIST) in her breakout role, and BENEDICT WONG (upcoming Marvel movie DOCTOR STRANGE, MARCO POLO).

Reviews for Spirit Warriors:

 

"Mail on Sunday"

"This impressive new drama series, aimed at the entire family, brings a mixture of martial arts and CGI technology to the small screen as five ordinary British children find themselves in an extraordinary world of magic and myth."

 

“Daily Mail Weekend"

"This first episode sets the scene in spectacular fashion, and if its stunning effects are an indicator of things to come, then it should prove an unmissable children's adventure."

 

"Observer"

"... clever new fantasy drama for children which includes "Crouching Tiger"-style martial arts with CGI characters and live-action"
