Q&A: Script reader D.C. Mar

In relation to the film business, Hollywood’s gatekeepers are script readers. Therefore it behooves a writer to understand at least something about who these people are, how they do their job, what their mindset is… and what they look for in a script.

So I was happy to be able to interview one of the best script readers and story analysts I know D.C. Mar, also a talented writer in her own right. You would be wise to read this interview, but if you’re super pressed for time, then zero in on Part 5 which describes her reading process.
