The script room

TV, film and theater — from logline to submission

Every stage of a script laid out in order: what you do at this stage, what finished looks like, and the read it has to survive next. Start a page whenever you're ready — the room keeps its place.

  • TV pilot
  • Feature film
  • Stage play
Grade a draftBuild the story bible
  1. 1

    Pick the form

    Pilot, feature or play. The beats, page counts and format rules change with it.

  2. 2

    Build the map

    Logline, engine, act breaks and a beat map you can actually write from.

  3. 3

    Survive the read

    Grade your pages against the same rubric a coverage reader uses before you send it out.

Start here

Write, import and shape screenplays in proper format.

What to bring

    Grade it, read it aloud, or redline the dialogue.

Mr AP, The script room: Script room. Screenplays live and die on structure, so that's where we start. Bring your pages, or bring a premise and nothing else — either is fine. I'll map the beats, tell you where act two goes soft, and pull sides out for whoever has to perform it. When you're ready to hear it, the table read room next door casts it and reads it out loud, and I promise you'll catch things with your ears you'd never catch on the page.
