Services · Script Writing Services
Script writing services give you a professional writer who turns a brief into a finished script for video, voiceover or the stage. You tell us who the audience is, how long the piece runs and what you want people to do or feel afterwards. We write the words, the structure and, where it helps, the notes on what appears on screen.
Clients come to us with a product to explain, a training program to film, a brand story to tell or a short play to put on. Get a free consultation and describe your project. Scripts are one part of our wider ghostwriting services, which means the same confidentiality and ownership terms apply.
A script is a plan for something that will be seen or heard. It sets out what is said, who says it and, for video, what the viewer sees at the same moment. A good one respects the clock: a minute of explainer video can carry only a modest number of words before it starts to feel rushed.
Scripts take different forms. A marketing or corporate video often uses a two-column layout with visuals on one side and narration on the other. A drama or comedy uses scene headings, action and dialogue. A stage play has its own layout again. If you are working on a feature or a television pilot, that is the territory of our screenplay writing services, which is a longer and more specialized craft.
Our scriptwriters research your subject, shape the story, write to the length you need and revise with your feedback. They do not film, animate or direct. That belongs to your production team, and a clear script makes their job easier. A script also saves money in production: every scene settled on paper is a scene nobody has to reshoot.
Marketing managers who need an explainer for a new product. Trainers and HR teams building onboarding or safety videos. Founders making a brand film. Producers and agencies who need extra writing capacity, and school and community groups putting on a performance.
Some clients already have a rough outline or a slide deck. Others have only a goal, and a few have a script that needs rescuing from a committee. We can start from any of these. If your project relies on spoken remarks as well, our speech writing services are built for the live room.
Each format has its own rules about length, pace and tone, so we match the writer to the job.
Short scripts that explain a product, service or idea in plain language. We open with the viewer's problem, show the solution in a few steps and end with one clear action. A good explainer teaches one thing well; if the brief lists seven benefits, we help you choose the top two or three. We write to the length of the animation and leave room for visuals to breathe.
Onboarding, compliance, product training, executive messages and company culture films. Training scripts are built around what the viewer must remember, and corporate films around a human voice. We avoid reading a policy aloud, and turn it into a situation the viewer recognizes, such as a customer call or a safety check. For related written material, see our corporate writing services.
Brand films, product promos and short social videos. These live or die in the first few seconds, so we write a hook, keep the message tight and plan captions for viewers watching without sound. Short formats also need a clean ending, so the final line gives people a reason to click, call or remember your name.
Short plays, sketches, school and community productions, awards show scripts and event emcee material. The Dramatists Guild is a well-known resource for playwrights and worth a look if you plan to stage your own work. We write stage material with a cast, a budget and a venue in mind, so the script fits the people who will perform it.
Narration for documentaries, audio guides, e-learning and phone systems. We write for the voice actor, with clear pronunciation notes and breathing room. Technical terms, product names and acronyms are marked so the voice talent says them correctly the first time. For audio programs, our podcast scriptwriting services follow the same logic.
We format scripts in industry-standard layouts: the two-column audio and video format for explainers and corporate films, screenplay layout for dramatic scenes and stage layout for plays. Many professional writers work in dedicated software such as Final Draft, and we can deliver in standard formats that import cleanly.
Deliverables are set in your written quote and typically include:
Storyboards, animation, filming and voice recording are separate production steps, and so is editing the finished video. We can work with your producer, but we do not promise to supply them unless the written quote says so.
Pricing is quoted per project after a free consultation, as a fixed written quote with milestones and no hidden fees. The main drivers are the running time, the type of script, the research needed, how many versions you want, the number of revision rounds and how quickly your team gives feedback. Our pricing page explains how quotes work.
A sixty-second explainer is a different job from a twenty-minute training film, and the quote shows it. Multiple language versions, extra cuts for social platforms and series of videos are quoted as part of the same plan, so you do not pay twice for the research. The timeline is confirmed in the written quote and depends on length, research and feedback speed. Rush schedules are available for an additional fee, quoted up front.
We sign an NDA before ghostwriting work begins, so your unreleased product, plot or plan stays private. You own everything we write for you. Rights transfer on delivery, confirmed in writing at the start of the project, and we keep no copyright or other claim.
If you plan to produce or sell your script, register your copyright. The U.S. Copyright Office explains registering scripts as performing arts works. For any deal with a producer, agency or theatre, talk to an entertainment lawyer. We write scripts, but we cannot promise that anything will be produced, placed or performed, or that it will earn a particular result. Those outcomes depend on production, distribution and audiences, all of which sit outside our work.
A one-minute script is usually somewhere around 130 to 160 spoken words, depending on pace and how much of the story the visuals carry. We write to your exact running time and check it with a read-aloud before delivery.
A screenplay is a script for a dramatic film or television show, in a strict format of scenes and dialogue. "Script" is the broader word, covering explainers, corporate films, voiceovers and stage plays, each with its own layout.
No. We write the script. Filming, animation and voice recording are separate production steps, which your team or a production company handles. We are glad to work with them, and we can answer questions about the script as they come up.
A short brief: your goal, your audience, the tone and the running time. Any existing materials help, such as slides, product notes, a website or earlier videos. We will ask for anything else we need.
Yes. Rights transfer to you on delivery, confirmed in writing at the start of the project, and we keep no copyright or royalty interest. Register your copyright if you plan to produce or sell it.
