Drama Screenplay Formatting Overhaul
Budget: $30 – $250 USD
I have finished drafting a drama screenplay and now need it professionally polished and formatted to meet IMDB Script Format standards. The structure is in place, yet the document still shows the typical rough-draft issues—scene headings that drift, dialogue that slips off the margin, and action lines that vary in style.
Here is what I’d like from you:
• Re-format every element (sluglines, action, dialogue, parentheticals, transitions) so the file matches the exact IMDB layout conventions for a feature screenplay.
• Tighten wording only where it harms readability; the voice and story must remain intact.
• Flag any obvious continuity or logic gaps while you work—no heavy rewriting, just concise notes in comments.
• Supply two files on delivery: an editable version with tracked changes and a clean, ready-to-send PDF.
A solid grasp of industry-standard screenplay tools such as Final Draft or Fade In will make the job faster, but feel free to use whichever software you prefer as long as the exported files follow IMDB guidelines precisely.
If a brief sample pass would help you estimate effort, let me know and I’ll provide a scene. I’m ready to start as soon as you confirm you can meet the formatting spec and turnaround you’ll need.
