Story Consulting Services

Sometimes a film needs a fresh set of eyes and a second opinion from an experienced editor who isn't too close to the material.  A story consultant, or "film doctor," can help. Shirley has consulted on dozens of films, offering detailed editing notes, advice on refining characters or storylines, restructuring the dramatic arc of a film, or cutting a feature length doc to a TV hour.

Recent clients include Kara Herold's Bachelorette 34, Chad Heeter's Two Million Minutes and Carol Ciancutti-Leyva's Absolutely Safe, as well as several films for the Independent Televison Service.

Get in touch and find out how a story consultant can help you with your film.
