A few months ago I sent a script to Tiger Aspect and they were impressed with it and a script editor gave me notes and advice...More recently I sent the same script to another production company and got the total opposite response. I know not everyone will like what you do and people have their own opinion but I don't quite know how to take the response:
'I am not sure what to say - there was so little to go on - "two different blokes live in a flat, fancy women" and...?
So - it's going to have to be a pass from us I'm afraid. Maybe you could think about painting a richer picture for those not inside your head next time - I think it would help to create the impression that this is a richly conceived world.'
Is this a polite way of saying it was shit?
Also the comment: "two different blokes live in a flat, fancy women" and...?" The premise of the show was not actually that but the story for the spec was about going on a date. I seem to remember a little show called Men Behaving Badly being about "two different blokes live in a flat, fancy women" and...? but who watched that shit?!
