Consulting Services
Carol Hovsepian’s Consulting Services focuses on screenplays and novels (make sure you read her reviews!)
Carol’s services involve extensive notes in:
Character Development (full arc, consistent use of character traits/motivations and how to use the traits/motivations of other characters to help move the protagonist forward and complete his/her arc, unique dialogue matching traits, making characters unique: relatable, memorable and believable).
Story development (structure, natural flow, sensibility, execution of theme) and will help develop a higher Concept if necessary.
Visual writing (enhance the use of visuals since we watch the movie more than hear it, appropriate action that moves story forward, short, descriptive visual action, smooth scene transitions, catchy intros and memorable endings, visual use of words).
In addition, she makes sure that dialogue and action matches your characters’ traits that keep your story moving forward and the reader/moviegoer engaged.
And, she’ll clean up the spelling and grammar if you want.
Please note: Carol does not offer to write loglines or synopses.
Remember: There is no guarantee of a sale or option ever. It’s a crapshoot so don’t blame Carol, yourself, or anyone else. Just keep improving and submitting and your work WILL eventually find its home.
