Was wondering if anyone ever sent their script off to get it coverage? If you did was it worth it and what are some good places to get a script coverage?
Thanks

I personally dont think a coverage will assure you that yur script will be produced .Probably it might help. Terri has a website Film writer . She does coverage for a small amount also I think she knows some agencies .
Pl dont think I get a commission

I've used Lynne Pembroke at http://www.converscript.com and Mike Cheda http://www.mikecheda.com at various points.
Lynne's rate for a standard cover is $185 and Mike's is $250.
Both approach it from a different angle.
Lynne has worked for 20 years as a professional script reader for agents, contests, producers and major film and TV studios. You get a standard cover, professionally done. She doesn't sugar-coat anything. Her rep is on the line, so you'll get an objective and thorough analysis. What you see is what a studio would see.
Mike worked as a Development Exec. at HBO, Disney Studios, and a bunch of other places. He's featured prominently in the late Blake Snyder's book "Save the Cat." Mike's covers tends to be less formally structured than Lynne's, but he brings plenty of experience and insight to his analysis.
I feel both have been a tremendous help and were worth the money spent. A feature script represents a great deal of blood, sweat and tears, and a second (or third) set of professional eyes on it simply can't hurt.
Good luck.

No problem.
Oh, and don't let Pembroke's epic FAIL of a website dissuade you. She's a pro reader (just terrible at web design).
