I am about ready to send a script off for a professional script evaluation, and I'm wondering what others have found is a reasonable going rate for the service. What I'm looking at is around $500-1000, depending on the level of thoroughness and detail. Seemed reasonable to me, but then I suddenly th...

I'm a new writer but did it for fun. People who could actually read a script loved my stories and thought they'd make good films. My motivation to make the effort towards selling a script is the two dreadful films I rented last nite. Just wish I could write this off as research.

Expand commentI used the Blacklist, and it wasn't for me. Let me put it this way: the readers had some helpful notes, but the 50 dollars buy you a page of notes, which is not enough to give you all the help and suggestions you need. My script improved a lot more thanks to BlueCat Screenplay competitions' notes. For about 100 bucks, I entered in the competition, got feedback, resubmitted and got a second feedback on the improved version. I also used Coverage Ink and Stage 32's coverage services on the improved version, and got mixed results. (Consider with revisions (writer) and pass (script) - stage 32 vs. consider (writer) and consider with reservations (script) from - coverage Ink). This should show that if you can afford it, trying different good services gives you different perspectives and reactions. Now, I of course had a lot of questions about the comments, but Coverage Ink only allows a few short questions, and stage 32 coverage (the basic one) doesn't allow follow-ups. So I'm a bit divided on whether I should be pitching execs, or save a bit more and pitch/consult Coverage Ink and/or Stage 32 before. Just sharing my experience. I welcome your suggestions and tips :) And of course there's always this question: is the story the best version of the story you want to tell? I want to improve as much as possible, without changing the core of the story.
