WHAT’S THE SECRET TO WRITING A REALLY GREAT EVALUATION?

Mersault: Say everything you want to say about the material in the first sentence. Describe the script’s execution with the very first word (exhilarating, hilarious, uneven). Have an attitude that every agent or client reading your coverage is probably multitasking, either on the phone, getting a manicure or a blowjob, on a treadmill, or texting someone while glancing at your coverage, and they are only going to read the opening kicker sentence and see if it got a recommend or a pass. Your job is to describe the script, starting with the premise. How is it executed? Does it consistently engage you? Is the script populated with dimensional and castable characters? How is the dialogue? Describe the talk. What is the tone of the piece? Define it. Reference another movie. When you have run out of things to say about a script, you’re done. People who dismiss readers as thoughtless executioners fail to appreciate the flip side to that coin: Anybody who’s about to write coverage wants to have their socks knocked off, and when they have gold in their hands they want to promote the hell out of that script because that’s what the business runs on: passion and material.
