Four steps, and none of them is a form you fill in while wondering whether anyone will read it.
1. Send the script
Upload the screenplay, your logline and your one-page synopsis in one go. Your email address is the only thing to type. Files travel encrypted, are read by Karel only, are never used to train anything, and are deleted when the engagement ends.
If you have not written the logline and the synopsis yet, write them first. They are free, they take an afternoon, and they are the part of the diagnosis you can do yourself.
2. Karel reads it
The whole thing, once, at reading pace, the way a script reader at a fund or a festival would. Then again with a pen. The notes are handwritten in the margin before any of them are typed, which is why the report quotes the draft back at you rather than talking in general terms.
3. The report arrives
It opens with the priorities, ranked in the order they should be fixed, and the single job that comes before all the others. Then the sections: what is working and should be protected, what needs discussion, and what to actually do in the next draft. Every note is numbered so the call has something to point at. Line-level detail comes last, because most of it changes again in the next draft anyway.
4. The call
A Zoom conference with Karel, included in every service. You bring the numbered notes and the questions they raised. Anything you said on the call that changes a note ends up in the margin beside it, so the conversation survives the conversation.
What happens after
You write the next draft. If the service you booked includes more than one round, you send it back and the cycle repeats. If it does not, and you want another pass later, the follow-up session runs at a reduced rate because the script is already known.
