Use this FREE sample script coverage report to support you in creating script analysis of a professional standard. Use this template as a framework for 500 Days of Summer, then continue your practice by analysing some of your own work. -
You'll notice that the Scribble Script Coverage report has a unique addition: The report overview also comes with a sift matrix of sorts, so the script reader can provide each story element with a star rating out of 5. If you decide to use the sift matrix to analyse your own work and you (if working honestly) earn less than 30 out of 40 stars in total, you'll have the reassurance of knowing that writing another draft of your script will be a great use of your time!
