We launched the

Coverage Course, where

we revealed what happens

when you send your

screenplay to an agent,

manager, or production

company…

A paid reader evaluates

the story, the characters,

and all the screenplay’s

strengths and weaknesses.

Chances are, this is the

first exposure anyone

with real power gets to

your screenplay…reading

the Coverage!

People who took the course said:

“Your words seemed original to me-- original enough to give me an ‘a-ha.’”
–L.G., New York City

“Great class! A seamless flow of important information with a touch of humor.”
--H.G., San Diego

“The recordings are priceless and you guys are GREAT together.  Thank you both for your time and expertise.” –S.M., Toronto

“It was great to be able to ask questions and get answers from someone who's actually in the business.” --K. N., Pittsburgh

“Thank you for spending so much valuable time with us. I do enjoy every minute of it and always learn something new.” --M.L., Wyoming


In the Coverage Course,

people learned:

* 3 Things that can happen

to your script after it

gets covered!

* 10 Things NOT TO DO if

you want great coverage!

look. Introducing the
