Hello, my name is Joseph Vaughan I am currently a Junior at North Carolina A&T State University with a Journalism and Mass Communications degree. I have a deep passion for producing. My long-term goals are to be a movie producer, video editor, scriptwriter, photographer, and voice actor. I look for opportunities to enhance my skills/abilities and put me on the right path to completing my goals!
I write cinematic screenplays—lean action lines, purposeful scenes, dialogue with subtext, and pacing that plays on screen. Hire me as your creative partner from start to finish or for a focused engagement (script only, script doctoring, notes/coverage, or plot surgery).
What I do
Features (80–120 pages) — concept → beat sheet → outline → first draft → rewrite/polish
Short Films (5–20 pages) — festival-ready, contained, emotionally resonant
Script Doctoring — structure, character arc, dialogue, and pacing fixes without losing voice
Consulting/Notes — coverage, page-by-page notes, rewrite strategy, plot adjustments
Add-Ons (as needed)
Vision Boards & Mood Guides (tone, palette, visual language)
Character Buildouts (backstory, want/need, contradictions, relationship web)
Story Bibles (world rules, tone, comps, themes, set-piece inventory)
Beat Sheets & Scene Maps (causality, act turns, escalations)
Storyboards / Shot Ideas (rough visual beats to help pre-viz and communication)
Genres: Sci-Fi, Horror, Thriller, Drama
Tools: Final Draft, (deliverables in .fdx + PDF)
How It Works (Choose Your Path)
A) Full Creative Partner (Concept → Production-Ready Script)
Discovery — goals, comps, constraints (cast, locations, budget, timeline)
Vision & World — mood/vision board + one-page creative compass
Beats & Map — beat sheet + scene list (alignment milestone)
Drafting — fast, visual pages with clear act turns and set-piece rhythm
Targeted Revisions — notes → surgical fixes by act/character/scene
Wrap Pack — PDF + .fdx, logline/synopsis, next-steps plan (coverage/contests/festivals)
B) Script-Only Build
You bring the premise or outline → I deliver the draft + one revision pass.
C) Script Doctor / Rewrite Strategy
Diagnostic memo → prioritized fixes → targeted rewrite or page-level notes.
D) Notes & Coverage
Industry-style coverage + development notes; optional consult to translate notes into beats.
Deliverables Menu (mix & match)
Logline & synopsis
Beat sheet (1–3 pages) + scene list
Outline (3–6 pages)
Feature/short screenplay (PDF + .fdx)
