90pages script consulting offers its expertise in the field of scriptwriting and development.
My role is to help authors and writers optimize the quality and coherence of their projects on narrative, structural and emotional levels, while preserving their singularity. It is an accelerator and amplifier of the creative process.
The strength of 90pages is its unique method, an exchange-based process. After reading the script in-depth and analyzing its strengths and weaknesses, comes the core of the process: the consulting itself. It is an exchange during which the author positions himself from comments, reflections, suggestions, ideas and questions to arrive at precise notes for rewriting. It is a constructive, dynamic and shared reflection, which makes it possible to go deeper into the mechanics of the script in order to optimize it.
HOW
The script itself should not be discussed (too much) during our first exchange. I need to be able to discover it fully and completely, without any preconceptions. This is important because it allows me to have an authentic first reading, as well as to see any discrepancies between what the reader reads, understands and feels and the author's intention.
After receiving the script I read it, twice, and take notes. It is the analysis phase. Then comes the consultation, which lasts half a day. It's a process during which the author and I explore, based on my notes, how to refine and reinforce the script on different scales, big picture as well as details, where needed to optimize it.
WHO
I have created 90pages script consulting for producersn scriptwriters and creators, both emerging and established, with a single ambition: to make each work the best version of itself.

"Once upon a time... , and a world is born.
Stories have always fascinated me, they are like magic. Invented and yet so true..."
French-British, I grew up in Cannes and quickly became a film buff. As a young woman, I was already on several film festival juries. Five films a day and it was bliss. Films but also books, every day, sometimes the whole day, of all genres: science fiction, thrillers, novels, short stories, and theatre too, a little later. I have never tired of wandering through stories and rubbing shoulders with their characters.
At the Namur Festival, I discovered the practice of editing, the third form of film writing. It was love at first sight. I went on to study Cinema and Arts, Communication and Language Sciences, and also took classes with Jack Garfein (Actor's Studio) on acting techniques and directing.
I met the editor Yves Deschamps, who trained me and passed on his knowledge to me. I became me chief editor for almost 15 years, often working for the same directors.
Before and during editing, the same question is always asked:
What is the story? The film is in the answer.
Later, I worked with Noëlle Mesny-Deschamps, founder of the first script development company in France, then of Equinoxe and its writing workshops.
It was a natural progression for me to go from working on the third script to working on the first. And so I decided to create 90pages script consulting.
"I enter each script like one enters an unknown place. I also explore it physically. Volumes and sounds, materials and sensations, emotions. Insights, reflections, analysis, exchanges, brainstorming, evidence, stories..."
MANIFESTO
Homo is the only animal to tell fictions
Humanity was born from shared stories
They are the sounding boards of our emotions, by sharing them we form a group
Stories shape our realities, and build our beliefs
Stories are our superpower
Stories are the place where we recognize ourselves
Myths Tales Laws Stories Texts Legends Plays Scenarios Novels Films are made of human, living matter.
A story is a movement towards the Other
A story is always a fiction
It seeks to create a link, an understanding, a common experience
Stories are more than entertainment
They synchronize us when we share their meaning
They are able to arouse in us intense emotions that transcend the boundaries of the possible
They have a very real impact on our lives
A screenplay is a parallel universe, an ecosystem, a map
Nothing is real, but everything is true
It is the origin of a new world
What is the story?
The movie is in the answer.
