CONSULTANCY SERVICES
SCRIPT EDITING/POLISHING
Script not quite working? I'm renowned for my feedback and troubleshooting skills, working with writers, producers and directors around the world to challenge story logic, elevate character arcs and tighten dialogue. If you have a script that needs knocking into shape, at whatever stage, please get in touch.
ADAPTATION/TRUE STORIES
Need a writer to adapt your source material into a film or TV script? I've adapted many stories - from books, plays, articles and real life - transforming them for the screen (or radio) and giving them a whole new life.
PROJECT DEVELOPMENT
If you're starting out on a new project and need to get all your ducks in a row, I can help with story research, conceptualising ideas, world-building and writing treatments & pitch decks.
FACTUAL/FACT-ENT
I worked at the amazing production company CTVC for the first decade of my career - first as a researcher, then producer & director of documentaries for clients including C4, BBC & S4C. Many years later I devised & produced a reality TV show in Cambodia. I still consult in these areas from time to time, so if you need help planning or executing a project - or interviewing contributors on a shoot - please holler.
