StoryBones  $450
Outline Development

To have a good body, you need good bone structure -- and the same goes for screenplays!

A good outline solves problems before they become problems, and helps skip any number of exploratory drafts. 

We'll take your story and abstract it to its essential beats. We'll collect these into an easy-to-read outline that shows the content and function of each scene.

We'll then create an alternate set of beats more in line with the best tone, flow, and dramatic structure of a script like yours. You can use this outline to tune and optimize your script, and zero in on the story you want to tell.

Currently we are offering this service for screenplays, existing outlines...even rough concepts!

The StoryBones service includes e-mail consultation to help fine-tune your outline to your needs. Also includes a follow-up analysis (after your next draft) for no extra charge.

- StoryBones will add scenes you need, and remove scenes you don't need.
- StoryBones will sharpen the action and focus the plot.
- StoryBones will eliminate unproductive drafts and speed you toward completion.
- StoryBones will make your next draft easy and fun to write!
- StoryBones will help make your next draft the one that sells!
StoryDraft  $1200
Edit & Rewrite

Let StoryPros do a draft of your screenplay!
  With a StoryDraft, it's like having StoryPros as your collaborator!

Unlike a StoryPolish, we may change or drop characters, shuffle scenes, and enhance plot points, all to bring out your vision to its utmost. You tell us what you want, and we will deliver it to you.

We may also offer suggestions for thematic tuning, along with any other suggestions we feel may help your script excel in the marketplace.
