About me

Scott McConnell is an Australian-based scriptwriter/story consultant who has worked as a documentary producer and showrunner in Los Angeles, a freelance writer and interviewer and in fiction development. He loves developing and editing stories, esp. scripts and novels.

Scott loves to fix stories, supply solutions, especially regarding a story's idea/premise, which is where he believes most stories fail. He also finds that many good writers don't focus enough on theme. It is through theme that a writer moves an audience emotionally. Scott helps writers, producers and directors find the key ideas in their story premise.

Scott script fixes for individual writers and production companies around the world.

Scott's many story analyses, film reviews and interviews have been published in the U.S., UK and Australia. His articles have been published in Script, Creative Screenwriting, MovieMaker, Sountrack, Produced By, The Guardian, Film International, Inside Film and FilmInk.

Scott is a member of the Producer's Guild of America and of the Australian Film Institute (AACTA.)
