Work With Lucy
Alongside her own film and television work, Lucy works closely with other writers and filmmakers, particularly those finding their way into the industry.
She loves helping people see behind the smoke and mirrors that can make the industry feel closed and daunting, offering practical, straightforward feedback grounded in her own experience as a writer, director and producer.
Her “First Ten Pages” read-through has proved particularly popular with writers looking for an immediate, instinctive – and, most importantly, affordable – way to see how their work lands with someone actually working in the industry.
Testimonials
Kevin Bolger – Screenwriter
I found Lucy’s feedback to be both informative and honest. With a clear outline of what is working, and what is not, what is clear, and what is unclear to the reader. Lucy also touches on plot structure, dialogue and character development in a positive and encouraging manner. However, if an aspect of the script needs throwing out, Lucy will be up front and tell you so. Highly recommended.
Louise Wilding – Screenwriter
I found Lucy’s notes incredibly helpful, and have since re-written large portions of my script. It now has a better flow, and the world building for my characters feels more well-rounded.
Tom Lockridge – Writer/Producer, Lucky Day Studios
I went to Lucy when I was stuck on a major re-write on one of our projects. She worked quickly and gave us keen insight as a writer, director, and storyteller that immediately solved our problem and set us on a course to vastly improve our script.
Neil Weatherhall – Screenwriter/Playwright
All Lucy’s comments are insightful and useful. She’s super fast at getting what I’m trying to do and showing how I’m getting in my own way. She always detects and respects the part of the work that has its own life.
Sam Kurd – Screenwriter
I was struggling with how best to rework a feature script down to a 15ish page short, and Lucy quickly identified the biggest problems and, in addition to giving lots of helpful suggestions, offered to do a few passes on the 30+ page script I’d come up with. Her cuts were as brutal as necessary while keeping the story logic and character arcs intact. Thank you Lucy, you’re a star!
