Sci-Fi Novel Adapted Short Script
Budget: $250 – $750 AUD
I’m ready to take my completed science-fiction novel off the page and onto the screen as a short film. The story, characters, and world-building are all in place; what I need now is a streamlined, professionally formatted screenplay that captures the same serious tone and narrative drive of the original work.
The task is a straight adaptation: trim the novel’s arc to fit a short-film runtime while preserving key plot beats, character motivations, and the speculative elements that define its genre. I’ll supply the manuscript and any background notes you need. You’ll return a polished script—Final Draft or PDF—structured with slug lines, dialogue, and action blocks that meet industry standards for a short film.
Clarity, pacing, and fidelity to the core themes are essential. If you’re experienced in science-fiction storytelling and concise screenwriting, let’s collaborate to translate this novel into a tight, shoot-ready script.
