About
First Draft Studio
First Draft Studio was founded on a simple insight: in today’s digital-first film industry, content moves fast – and script development needs to keep up.
Streamers, mobile platforms, and cable channels are hungry for genre content, and producers are under pressure to deliver more films and episodes at a breakneck pace.
The script is often the bottleneck. That’s where we come in.
We’re seasoned screenwriters and story editors with deep experience in our genres, enabling production companies to hit their ambitious slates.
All without ego and without writing credits.
Speed &
Quality
With our proprietary writing method and custom in-house tools (refined by writing hundreds of genre screenplays), we can turn around drafts in days, not weeks or months.
Aligned to
Your Goals
We tailor scripts to your distribution model. Whether you’re producing vertical video series for mobile apps, an 85-minute thriller for an ad-supported streamer, or a cozy 90-minute romance for cable – our scripts are ready to slot into your pipeline with minimal adjustment.
Professional Discretion
We hit our deadlines. We research your past projects to match your style. And we operate with total discretion. Your investors, partners, and audience will never know an outside hand was involved in the first draft – it will feel authentic to your brand.
Our goal is empowering genre producers to scale up their storytelling by removing the first-draft hurdle.
This allows your writers to focus on only the impactful details while we handle the most time consuming part of script writing.
Since we take no writing credits, your writers get to dramatically increase theirs.
