Script P.I.M.P :: Onesheet

ABOUT SCRIPT PIMP
 

Script P.I.M.P., LLC is a full-service screenplay analysis and resource hub designed for writers, producers, and film industry professionals.

 

For almost a decade, Script Pimp has been a leader in screenplay analysis, serving not only as a coverage service, but a link connecting up-and-coming writers and development executives.  Through their composite directory, the Writers Database, Script Pimp has gathered the specific needs and submission guidelines of production and management companies, literary agencies, independent producers, and creative executives searching for scripts.  Along with extensive resources, this information is available through their members-only Writers Database, where users may search through 1,300-plus listings.  Database members have the ability to send inquires to our members-only E-mail for answer about writing, film, and the industry in general. 

 

As well as annual screenplay and teleplay writing contests, Script Pimp continues to offer top-notch coverage services and the potential to have one's material circulated to production companies, agents, and managers through our Writers Workshop, which reviews screenplays, short scripts, and TV specs and pilots.  Rave reviews and success stories continue to fuel the Workshop, as more and more writers benefit from Script Pimp’s wide array of offerings, from one-on-one consultations to basic story notes.  This past year, the 2009 Screenwriting Competition garnered over 2,500 total entries, and the TV Writing Contest doubled in submissions from 2008.

 

Most recently, Rogues Gallery, a former Workshop "Recommend" screenplay written by Brian Watanabe, wrapped production in Los Angeles and is set for a 2010 release.  In addition, 2008 contest winner Evan Daugherty, after introductions by Script Pimp, secured representation through Energy Entertainment and later landed a writing assignment with Warner Bros. to pen an adaptation of the classic animated series He-Man.

ADDITIONAL:

 

Main Function: Script Pimp, LLC is a full-service screenplay analysis and resource hub designed for writers (film and TV), producers, and industry professionals.  Services include story analysis through our Writers Workshop and our Writers Database, which gives access to over 1,000 companies and executives searching for material.  In addition, for the past seven years, Script Pimp has held annual screenplay and TV writing competitions. 

 

For almost a decade, Script Pimp has established itself as one of the leaders among script consulting and writers' resource companies--not simply in the number of writers we've worked with and assisted (over 10,000), but in our success stories.  We are, and always have been, thoroughly dedicated to moving the careers of writers and filmmakers forward.  A number of Workshop Recommends have gone on to see their work optioned, sold, and produced.  Mark Mahon, who received a Recommend on his script STRENGTH AND HONOR, later went on to produce and direct the film, which has won numerous awards and accolades in festivals worldwide.  Most recently, former Recommend Brian Watanabe saw his screenplay ROGUES GALLERY produced, and one of our 2008 contest grand prize winners, Evan Daugherty, who we introduced to manager Jake Wagner (Energy Entertainment), landed a major writing assignment with Warner Bros. to pen an adaptation of the 1980s series HE-MAN entitled "Grayskull". 

 

 

Not only do we offer a number of services and resources for writers, we've been careful not to overload our members and visitors with too many extraneous or unnecessary services, like a number of similar resource-based websites have done in the past.  We've kept it simple, stayed true to our roots and the original vision of the company, and as a result, users understand exactly what we do and how we can assist with improving their craft.  Industry professionals, too, see us as a filter, or matchmaker of sorts, between themselves and budding writers looking to either sell their spec, link up with an agent/manager, or find opportunities on writing assignments.  Over 150 production companies and literary reps review our annual contest finalists, and we've been enormously successful in finding a home for scripts and introducing talented writers with the proper representation, something few other consulting/resource companies can do. 

 

 

In 2009, we redesigned the entire look and feel of our site for better functionality and ease of use.  We're currently in the process of adding new features and amending existing services to better suit all of our Writers Database members.  As our resources expand, and our site is upgraded to fall in line with the latest trends and technologies, the Script Pimp user experience will become a truly rewarding asset to writers and filmmakers worldwide.

 

Most recently, Script Pimp was named one of the "Top 50 Websites for Filmmakers" by Moviemaker magazine in their August 2009 issue.

Chadwick Clough

After graduating from Santa Clara University in 1999, Chadwick Clough moved to Los Angeles where he worked for multiple production companies on the ground floor of feature film development.  Realizing the need for a solution to the hundreds of spec scripts left unread in production company and studio offices citywide, Chadwick envisioned a "matchmaking" service between the up-and-coming writer and the industry to better serve both parties.  For the writer, their material could be reviewed by an impartial third party, while the busy executive could receive quality projects via a much-needed filter.  In 2000, Script P.I.M.P. (Pipeline Into Motion Pictures) was formed, and has since offered coverage services, annual writing competitions, and the Writers Database, a composite directory of production companies, agencies, and managers looking for new material.

Chadwick has not only been instrumental in linking writers with proper representation and production contacts, including Robert Nelms on the film Between (2005), but played a vital role in the funding of two independent features, The Living Wake (2007), which garnered Script Pimp's first production company credit, and Rogues Gallery (2010).  Chadwick served as producer on the Mike O'Connell/Jesse Eisenberg Wake and executive producer on the ensemble cast Rogues, a project originally submitted through Script Pimp's Writers Workshop and later produced on a near $5m budget.  Script Pimp has also served as a creative consultant on other independent films produced in the last few years.

Beyond running Script Pimp, Chadwick has lectured on screenwriting and entrepreneurship at the University of Southern California and UCLA, as well as taking part in the Big Brothers LA mentorship program for the past eight years.  In addition, he has been a promoter/producer of the Circus of Joy comedy show at the Hollywood Improv. In October 2009 Circus of Joy was named "Best Monthly Comedy Show" by LA WEEKLY.

Over the past decade, Chadwick's goal has remained the same: to assist the budding writer with an array of resources on how to improve their craft and give those deserving of a chance the exposure they need in a highly competitive marketplace.
