Hollywood Standard Feature Script Formatting
Budget: $30 – $250 USD
I have a full-length screenplay—well over 50 pages—that now needs to look and read like a polished, industry-ready document. The core of the job is to bring every slug line, action block, parenthetical, and transition into strict Hollywood standard formatting.
While you’re in the manuscript, I’d also like a careful proofread to catch typos, punctuation slips, and any obvious continuity glitches, plus a light dialogue polish so the conversations feel natural and consistent with each character’s voice. No story restructuring is required; the plot stays exactly as written.
Deliverables I expect:
• A fully formatted screenplay file (.fdx or .celtx preferred, PDF as final reference)
• A clean, tracked-changes version showing proofreading edits
• A dialogue-only excerpt highlighting any rewritten lines for quick review
If you have Final Draft or an equivalent pro tool and a keen eye for subtle dialogue tweaks, this should be straightforward. Let me know your estimated turnaround and a brief note on similar scripts you’ve formatted before, and we can get started right away.
