SCREENWRITER CAREER DEVELOPMENT & INDUSTRY LAUNCH PROGRAM

 

Develop your script. Define your voice. Prepare for your next opportunity.

​

Six weeks of personalized support. One complete professional package. 

 

A strong screenplay gives someone a reason to read. A clear professional identity helps them understand who you are, what you bring to a project, and why they should work with you.

 

Screenwriting Staffing’s Career Development & Industry Launch Program brings those pieces together. We work with you personally to strengthen one screenplay, develop your pitch materials, improve your professional presence, and launch an industry outreach campaign.

 

Whether your goal is selling a script, finding representation, applying for paid writing assignments, or positioning yourself for staffing opportunities, we help you prepare the work (and yourself) for those conversations.

​

A program built around your work and your goals

 

Some writers have a strong script but struggle to pitch it. Others have several projects but no clear sense of which one should lead their portfolio. Many know what they write but have trouble explaining what makes their voice distinctive.

 

This program connects script development with the business of presenting yourself as a writer.

​

You’ll work directly with Jacob N. Stuart, founder of Screenwriting Staffing, on your selected screenplay, career direction, professional materials, and outreach strategy. The program includes four private sessions, written feedback, personalized materials, one year of Premium Membership, and an industry launch through Screenwriting Staffing.

​

The goal is to give you materials you can use, a strategy you understand, and the confidence to take your next professional step.

​

WHAT’S INCLUDED

​

SCRIPT DEVELOPMENT & REVISION SUPPORT

 

We begin with a detailed evaluation of one completed feature screenplay or television pilot. You’ll receive honest, practical feedback on the story, characters, dialogue, structure, producibility, along with clear priorities for your rewrite.

​​

After your development consultation, you’ll revise the script and receive a follow-up review focused on how effectively the changes address the original notes.

Includes:

• One feature screenplay up to 150 pages or one television pilot up to 95 pages.

• Detailed written coverage and prioritized rewrite recommendations.

• One private script development consultation.

• One revised-draft review with concise follow-up notes.

CAREER STRATEGY & PORTFOLIO POSITIONING

We’ll review your experience, goals, and available projects to identify your strongest starting point.

​​​

Are you pursuing a script sale? Seeking a manager? Trying to secure paid assignments? Building toward television staffing? Your strategy should reflect where you are and what you’re prepared to pursue.

Includes:

• A personalized career assessment.

• Review of up to five project loglines.

• Selection of one primary script for development and promotion.

• A written strategy connecting your work with relevant opportunities.

• A personalized 90-day action plan.

​

YOUR PROFESSIONAL WRITER IDENTITY

 

When someone asks, “What kind of writer are you?” you should have an answer that sounds like you.

​

​We’ll help you identify the themes, experiences, interests, and storytelling strengths that connect your work, then turn that understanding into clear professional language.

Includes:

• A personalized writer positioning statement.

• A short introduction for meetings and networking.

• Three professional biographies in different lengths.

• A customized writing résumé.

​​

ONLINE PRESENCE & PORTFOLIO MATERIALS

​

Includes:

• A written online presence audit.

• LinkedIn headline and About section.

• One additional social media biography.

• Copy for a one-page writer website or portfolio.

Website copy and recommendations are included. Website construction, hosting, and account management are separate services.

​​

PERSONALIZED SOCIAL MEDIA STARTER KIT

​

You don’t need to post constantly to build a professional presence. You need a manageable approach that reflects your voice and gives people a reason to remember your work.

 

We’ll help you prepare useful content around your writing, experience, projects, and professional interests.

Includes:​

• Six personalized post drafts.

• A 30-day content plan.

• Guidance on platform selection, networking, and professional engagement.

• Access to our screenwriter branding class guide.

​​

QUERY LETTER & PROJECT PITCH PACKAGE

​

We’ll create a consistent set of materials for your selected screenplay so you can introduce the project clearly across emails, meetings, and submissions.

Includes:

• A refined project logline.

• A one-page synopsis.

• A personalized query letter.

• A PDF pitch deck of up to ten slides (content only, no graphics) 

• One consolidated revision round on the professional and pitch materials.

​

REPRESENTATION & BUYER OUTREACH STRATEGY

​

A useful outreach plan begins with fit. We’ll help you identify the types of producers, representatives, and opportunities that align with your work and career goals.

Includes:

• Ten researched industry targets.

• An explanation of why each target may fit.

• Public submission routes or professional contact channels where available.

• Guidance on introductions, submissions, and follow-ups.

​

PRIVATE CONSULTATIONS & PITCH PRACTICE

​

You’ll receive four private sessions with Jacob, totaling three hours:

• 45-minute career and branding kickoff.

• 60-minute script development consultation.

• 45-minute mock pitch or interview.

• 30-minute industry launch and outreach meeting.

Practice discussing your project, explaining your background, answering questions, and making a clear professional introduction.

​

INDUSTRY E-BLAST & SOCIAL PROMOTION

​

Once your script and promotional materials are ready and approved, we’ll launch a query campaign through Screenwriting Staffing’s opted-in network of over 3,500 industry professionals.

Includes:

• One query letter e-blast.

• One follow-up to non-openers where available.

• Promotion through selected Screenwriting Staffing social channels.

• Guidance on responding to inquiries and material requests.

Campaign timing will be coordinated with you and based on the readiness of your materials.

​

30 DAYS OF FOLLOW-UP SUPPORT

 

The program continues after your launch. For the following 30 days, you’ll receive support with outreach and next steps, including:

• Review of up to three industry responses or follow-up drafts.

• One scheduled email check-in.

• Your final 90-day career action plan.

​

HOW THE PROGRAM WORKS

​

WEEK 1: ASSESS & POSITION

​

We review your materials, discuss your goals, select your primary script, and assess your professional presence. Your kickoff session establishes the direction for the program.

​

WEEK 2: DEVELOP YOUR SCRIPT

You receive your screenplay evaluation and meet with Jacob to discuss the notes, ask questions, and establish rewrite priorities.

 

WEEK 3: BUILD YOUR WRITER PACKAGE

 

While you work on the rewrite, we develop your writer identity, biographies, résumé, profile copy, and portfolio materials.

 

WEEK 4: PREPARE YOUR PITCH MATERIALS

 

We review your revised screenplay and develop the logline, synopsis, query letter, and pitch deck around the agreed direction.

WEEK 5: PRACTICE & PLAN

We conduct your mock pitch or interview, complete your social media starter kit, and develop your targeted outreach strategy.

 

WEEK 6: LAUNCH

 

We finalize approved materials, hold your launch consultation, and schedule your industry e-blast and social promotion.

​

FOLLOWING 30 DAYS: FOLLOW THROUGH

 

We help you assess responses, prepare follow-ups, and put your continued career plan into action. The six-week schedule begins once all required intake materials are received. Timely feedback and completion of your rewrite help keep the program moving. If your screenplay needs additional development, we’ll agree on an adjusted timeline before launching it.

​

WHO THIS PROGRAM IS FOR

This program is designed for writers who have a completed screenplay and want personalized help developing their work and pursuing professional opportunities.

• Want to explain your writing identity more clearly.

• Are preparing to approach producers or representatives.
