Studio Coverage is the intense, in depth script analysis with page-specific notes and comments that is required by a major studio when deciding whether to go forward in the process of turning a screenplay into a movie.

Over the years, we've had so many requests from members and visitors asking us to read their film scripts and offer our professional analysis, that is why we offer Studio Coverage.

Offering a service like this to our members required time and consideration because professional coverage is one of the most important links in the process of getting your script or screenplay made into a movie. We were only willing to offer this if we could do it at the highest levels of the profession.

That is why we are so pleased that Candace Kearns, has joined our team at Screenwriters Online.

Ms Kearns is one of the best story analysts in Hollywood. She is accurate, solid, market-savvy, thorough, helpful, insightful, and exceptionally experienced.

For years, she was story analyst for the powerful ICM agent, Ed Limato, whose client list reads like the who's who of Hollywood stars.

Her own client list has includedMeg Ryan, Melanie Griffith, Anthony Hopkins, Richard Gere, Michelle Pfieffer, Marlon Brando among other production companies and agencies.

She was SCRIPT DOCTOR on films for Denzel Washington,Angelica Houston, Goldie Hawn,Johnny Depp

She reads and recommends scripts to ICM's most powerful agents, producers, actors and directors, and now she is also available to you, at Screenwriters Online.

Not only was Louis at ICM but has "covered" and analyzed many scripts that have gone on to be very successful and well known movies. Among the screenplays that Louis has "covered" for the major studios and agencies are:

• CLIFFHANGER (dir.Reni Harlan, starring Sly Stallone)

A NOTE TO OUR MEMBERS
It is our hope that by offering you the opportunity to have your script given studio coverage by two highly respected analysts, whose opinion is sought after by the best actors, agents and studio executives in this business, we will be bringing each of you that much closer to fulfilling your dream of becoming a successful professional screenwriter.

In terms of money, this may be the best investment you can make in your career: to get a real player to give a full evaluation of your script the way any major screenwriter's script would be evaluated and to know your weakness and your strengths is a priceless piece of information. Hollywood may be mythical in many respects but it operates on the bottom line. If someone is going to buy your screenplay for $250,000 they're going to want to know they've got the goods and this is one way of your knowing whether you've got it.

You may be surprised.
