About the Book:

How to Make Six Figures as a Script Consultant. Even if You're Not a Screenwriter….

Utilizing over 100 years of combined experience from the top script consultants in the business, Derek Rydall leads readers through a step by step process where they hone their reading, writing and analytical skills and master story analysis and script doctoring.

What people say:

"There are plenty of movies on the market which feature substandard writing – so bad that even an audience member might think they can do better, let alone an aspiring screenwriter. If you're a member of the latter group, 'I Could've Written a Better Movie Than That!' is for you. It tells how to use this sense of perfection to earn cash as a script consultant, and comes from author Rydall's years of experience in the industry. Chapters show how to analyze stories in any form, write coverage, repair scripts, negotiate contracts and more. Plenty of books tell how to write the script: few, except for this, tell how to make money repairing one." — Mid-West Book Review

"There's nothing more frustrating or satisfying as writing a good script. But, to make it great, everyone needs just a little help. And Derek's book shows you, in step-by-step detail, exactly how to give and get that help. A good script consultant can make a difference. I know, I am one." — Jason Blumenthal, Producer: The Weather Man, The Pursuit of Happiness

"I see dozens of books of this type, and my attitude going in was, 'Well, how is this one different?' You know what? It is different. Really different. Derek Rydall's emphasis of two vital issues (strategic analysis of the art of writing and competitive analysis of the business of advertising and marketing a script) make this much more valuable than the usual 'how-to-do-it' books. I really like this book. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it." — Barbara Hiser, Emmy Award Winning Producer

"At last, someone has written a book that thoroughly explains how to read and evaluate a screenplay right! But that's not all. Rydall even shows you how to make a good living doing it! This book could quite possibly revolutionize film development in Hollywood!" — Barry Perelman, Agent
