Talking Out Loud

The Blaine Brothers have had an illuminating and enjoyably tortuous few years in making the films you'll find on this website and are more than happy to show their films and talk engagingly about their successes and failures. If you would like to book them please just get in touch via talking@charlieproductions.co.uk

Script Reading Service

No one will read the same script twice so the last person you want to point up the flaws in your screenplay is the producer who turns it down. When finishing a draft of a screenplay it is invaluable to get a fresh pair of eyes and a perspective from someone actively involved in the industry. As part of our comittment to supporting other filmmakers get their work made we are happy to offer a professional script reading service.

Thanks to our training as script readers, our experience as story tellers and, perhaps most useful, our understanding of the industry, we are able to give writers an insight that will save months of waiting for a rejection. Our report will concisely outline the narrative strengths and weakness of the project as well as offering ideas on how to make it a more attractive commercial proposition. Standard reports will consist of a synopsis, technical and creative analysis, suggestions for further development and advice on where best to take the script.

We charge £100 per script and aim to provide feedback within 28 days. For more information contact reading@charlieproductions.co.uk

All other enquiries are best sent via email to bingo@charlieproductions.co.uk. Before you do though, please take a moment to read this page so that you don't waste your time and energy.

Writers

Outside of the script reading service we do not read unsolicited screenplays. However, if you have a project which you think we should be making with you then please do get in touch but in the first instance please send us only a CV and a synopsis or treatment via email.

Treatments should be no longer than ten pages, in fact we'd be delighted to take a view based on a single sentence pitch, whatever you've got that gets the gist of the story across. If we are interested in the project from the synopsis then we will give you an address to send the work to.

Actors

Please send a CV and headshot. If you have a link to a showreel then that's great but don't worry if not.

Composers

Ideally please send us links to an online showreel, if you don't have this then get in touch and we'll give you a postal address.

Other Crew & Work Experience

Please send a CV and in the case of requests for work experience please could you write a brief personal statement about why you would like to work with us and what you would hope to gain from the experience, especially please let us know what aspect of filmmaking you are most interested in. We are very keen to offer work experience placements but only if we feel sure we can genuinely offer you something of value.
