In recent years the UK film industry has done much to cement its global reputation for outstanding production and post-production work. It is well acknowledged, however, that the biggest challenge currently facing our industry is not in the production of films but in the creation of commercially attractive screenplays that do not compromise on quality, originality or integrity.

The Script Connection offers a range of services that can help all those involved in the development of feature film scripts achieve this objective. We have worked with every kind of writer, from major award winners to complete newcomers, and use proven and effective methods to help screenwriters produce their very best.

By revealing the ways in which audience psychology informs and underpins well-crafted material, we move beyond explanations of ‘how’ screenwriting technique works and focus instead on ‘why’ it works, connecting writers with their audiences and transforming knowledge into understanding.

By providing an industry focus for material, concentrating on craft and technique, challenging creativity and encouraging innovation and individuality in writers we not only develop concepts and scripts…

We develop screenwriters, too.

Our Key Objectives:

• Facilitate understanding of craft issues specific to cinema
• Emphasise the importance of marketability
• Increase awareness of the links between audience psychology and screenwriting principles
• Promote professional practice in writers
• Encourage passion, innovation and distinct, original voices
