Welcome to Keys2ScriptSuccess!

And by the way, we were just named the 14th best script consultant in America—the "Cream of the Crop"/top 25/top 8 percent—out of 202 consultants ranked in Creative Screenwriting magazine's June 2010 survey of more than 900 screenwriters who have tried said consultants!
     If you haven't heard of us before, don't be surprised:
     We rose to #14 quietly (but fairly quickly), by busily critiquing, consulting on and co-writing scores of screenplays, focused on working to help individual writers and producers toward excellence, rather than on promoting ourselves or writing screenwriting books for the general market.
     And we intend to continue in that focused approach, since we and our clients have won multiple awards applying it. Plus, there's never an end to the ways we can make screenplays more gripping and/or enchanting and/or sellable. And with ever-more-demanding audiences, writing a sellable screenplay isn't getting easier!
     Ah, but what of those "overnight screenwriting successes" you've heard about? In a word, posh! It's really not an easy craft, and not just anybody can write a successful screenplay (and we define “successful” very carefully).
     Writing a screenplay that sells, and draws in top artistic and filmic talents to collaborate on turning it into a film, and ultimately attracts sufficient audiences to more than pay back all the film’s investors — that kind of writing requires a distinctive collection of:

     1)     character traits;
     2)     linguistic and formatting skills;
     3)     historical knowledges;
     4)     psychological and emotional (self)-awareness; and
     5)     big-picture showmanship acumen, among others.

Now we can’t give you the character traits (it wouldn’t be “self-discipline” if it came from outside yourself), but through our depth of experience and wide range of services, we can definitely help you in the subsequent four areas!
     And this applies to helping both writers and producers! With the utmost respect, it’s asking a lot of any producer to be expert in all the five areas above as well as in all the distinctive technical, logistical, and business knowledges that successful film producers have to maintain.
     Thus Keys2ScriptSuccess can come alongside producers, allowing them to focus on things like fundraising and business planning while we make sure you’ve got the best script possible for your budget.
     So, writer or producer, come on in, look around, and find how Keys2ScriptSuccess can work for you!
