Screenwriting : Feedback for Feedback! by Ritchie Johnston

Feedback for Feedback!

Hey ho! How's it going peeps! I recently put one of my scripts through screenplay readers, it was a really helpful service that gave me some awesome feedback (well not awesome so much as they wanted it, but awesome in the sense that it is what I needed to give my work the boost it needed!) Anyway's having taken their advice I redrafted the pilot I sent them and I was wondering if I could tempt anyone into having a read and giving their opinions, I am more than happy to return the favor! The screenplay can be found here.... https://www.stage32.com/profile/2013/screenplay/stoned-1x01-clowns-canna... I have been working on this one for about three years now as I would love to get this one made as this was my startout piece here is the logline: A heartbroken out of luck stoner finds that rock bottom is a far descent when he comes mistakenly into possession of a box that leads to a world full of clowns, cannabis and conspiracy Hope you enjoy, thanks for the time Ritch

Thank you for letting me read your script. As a reformed party girl myself, it was fun to read. You definitely kept me going about what was in the box. And left a cliff hanger for what I assume will be the rest of the series. Bravo. I have a couple quick notes that I took: pg 3: “holds or holding a great weight on his shoulders”, pg 14: “Right now, not a lot.” Not “Right now not, a lot.” Pg 17, Cassanova is a name, so Capitalize. Pg. 35 “Rick’s (apostrophe s) phone rings again…” pg 38 “he looks to Rick’s (apostrophe s) table…” Good luck with the project! I can definitely see it, with some great music, especially the slow motion scene of the guys getting out of the car to go to the audition. That was bad ass.
