TV Screenplay Editor Needed

Hi, my name is David. I’m a creative native English proofreader/editor and I would be very happy to go over your script, but I would really need to see the text before I could give an accurate price (my current bid is just an approximation). I have done this type of work before for French and Finnish video makers as well as for a Brazilian video game developer who wanted me to check his English dialogue and make it sound like 1950s American English—all were extremely happy with my work. I also used to write my own scripts when I was making my own videos. I can send you examples on request but I think the best thing for you to do is attach a couple of pages from your screenplay and ask all serious bidders to send you a sample—despite what they claim, many of them are non-native agencies, and I definitely wouldn’t trust anyone who refused to provide a sample. But, up to you. Cheers, Dave

I am both a screenwriter and a proofreader/editor. I am an experienced screenwriter who has pretty much become the "Go-To Screenplay Guy" on this site. Thus far, I have won the last few screenwriting/script contests here (I joined 2013) and have successfully bid and been awarded several other screenwriting projects which I have completed (some are ongoing long-term projects). Please review my profile to confirm my claims: https://www.freelancer.com/u/bakiwanuka.html (N.B. The "Deleted Project #5030399" was completed to the employer's satisfaction as corroborated by the stellar review. The employer deleted the name of the project because they wished all data about the project confidential. This was an NDA project). FORMATTING/STRUCTURAL/DIALOGUE ISSUES 1) I use Industry Standard Software (Final Draft) so proper formatting of your script is guaranteed. 2) Having written several screenplays (a number of which were contest wins and some being developed into movies) I thoroughly understand good structure and conflict (essential components of good scripts). 3) Great dialogue is one of my key attributes. Cheers, Ba

I have been an editor and proofreader for nine years. During this time, I have edited thousands of books, websites, articles, scripts, and academic papers. Please see my reviews and exam scores.

Thank you for considering my bid - I'm an educator and screenwriter and have previously taught narrative script writing at a college level. I'd be glad to reformat your script (I use Final Draft) and fix any grammar, punctation and formal mistakes (script writing is a specific kind of writing - exposition should be quick and to the point and I'll make sure its in good shape!).

Hello. I would be an excellent candidate for this project. I have been a high school English teacher for the past four years - so I have extensive experience proofreading and correcting punctuation and grammar. I am also very familiar with the screenplay format, as it is a hobby of mine and I frequently use Final Draft to write my own screenplays. Finally, I am very comfortable with offering suggestions and collaborating with you on making your dialog as effective as can be. Please see my portfolio for two examples of short screenplays I have written if you would like to make sure I'm familiar with the form. Thank you for your time and consideration. Kyle

I am a professional screenwriter. I need to build up my freelancer profile, so will work for a low price of 100 bucks.

Hi there! I'm not great at producing conversation, but am excellent at helping make dialogue sound natural and exciting. I've been a copy editor at a newspaper for almost nine years so am skilled at correcting basic grammar, punctuation and spelling. I've also helped friends edit their fiction, and identify ways to improve existing scripts in my spare time. I'd love to help make sure your script will sound vibrant and convincing to executives. Thank you for your consideration!
