Testimonials From Clients:
SHOUTOUT:
"Your notes were excellent! That's a special
level skill to be able to give insights at that level."
SHOUT OUT:
From A Producer: "I think you are brilliant... Love your work as it gives a voice they need to hear..."
SHOUT OUT:
"Based on your notes and our wonderful conversation, I was just notified that the script finished as a Second Rounder at the 2023 Austin Film Festival. The script is also a Quarter Finalist at the Final Draft Big Break Contest with advancement pending."
Shout Out:
"Terri's insights into my script and characters and how to improve them were quite valuable. The one-hour phone consultation helped further clarify steps for the next draft. Highly recommended."
SHOUT OUT:
Thanks a million for your help and notes, I'm using them and implementing them.
I really appreciate your care for reading and commenting on the screenplay.
If you would like me to write a testimonial for your website, I would be happy to do so and I definitely plan on recommending you to my friends and using your services again. Thank you for this invaluable service, MF
SHOUT OUT:
I just wanted to thank you for such thorough and great feedback. Seriously, you not only helped me find areas of improvement, but gave me CLEAR advice and direction on how I might achieve these improvements. I am an instant fan of yours ... I "get" every single thing you said. Trust me when I say that not all coverage is equal ... some leaves you defeated, confused, and curled up in the fetal position. Yours has left me inspired, empowered, and excited that I have a roadmap on how to improve things that I felt might be off, but was too close to see why, let alone how to fix the issues. This next thing I am about to say is probably not in my best interest, but you should raise your prices! (not for me, obviously ;) Thanks again for the valuable thoughts and feedback. Matthew L.

"Terri is a superb "deconstructionist" of story. She has a passion for excellence and her eye for detail is outstanding. She is the super sleuth of screenplay structure!

Vivian Lermond, Screenwriter, playwright, adjunct professor
SHOUT OUT:
"You have done several coverage reports for me and used my script for your first readers class. Just to let you know something fun has happened. After going over all of your notes and your students, I did many rewrites and submitted the script to the Pulsar Sci-Fi contest and placed in the quarter finals. I was talking to a WGA agent and told them about the contest, and that I was going to illustrate the script and make a graphic novel. I showed them my screenplay one-sheet and they loved the idea and offered to be the editor and rep it. So a big thanks to you and your students." Jeff Jones Screenwriter

"Naturally writers, smitten with their brilliance, often find commentary on their scripts hard to accept. Not so with the coverage provided by Terri Zinner of AFilmWriter.com. The comments she renders are focused, insightful and if applied, vastly improve a script. Her budget friendly coverage receives the highest thumbs up and maximum positive stars possible." Philip Sedgwick, screenwriter
