Screenplay Evaluation Topics

Film Screenplay Auditing is the evaluation process of analyzing various parameters required in the Film Screenplay. It is conducted in an unbiased way and without prejudice. The auditing aims to identify the flaws, gaps, and issues that can occur with/without the knowledge of the writer. Film Script Auditing strengthens the storytelling process and helps the writer stick with the common goal of the script.

The Importance of Screenplay Auditing

 Why Every Script Needs a Second Brain

By Sai Vijendhiran, Creator of the Screenplay Auditing Process™

In the world of filmmaking, a screenplay is the foundation upon which everything is built — the soul of a movie. Yet, while many writers focus on story, dialogue, and characters, few truly understand the importance of screenplay auditing — the process of examining, dissecting, and elevating a script before it ever reaches the camera.

As the creator of the Screenplay Auditing Process™, I firmly believe that every story deserves clarity, structure, and emotional precision. Here’s why screenplay auditing isn’t just important — it’s essential.

🧠 1. The Writer’s Blind Spot
Even the most seasoned screenwriters can suffer from what I call the “emotional bias of creation.” After spending weeks or months inside a story, it becomes difficult to see its flaws. Characters might seem real in the writer’s mind, but their arcs may be unclear on paper. A thrilling plot twist might make sense internally, but fail to land with readers.
This is where screenplay auditing steps in — as a second brain. Not to criticize, but to clarify.

When a Film Is Praised as a "Masterpiece", Its Flaws Become Invisible

In the world of cinema, a dangerous phenomenon often goes unnoticed:
Once a film is labeled a “masterpiece,” its flaws are no longer questioned.
They vanish — not because they were resolved — but because we’re told not to look for them.
Aspiring filmmakers, students, and cinephiles are frequently introduced to “world cinema” with pre-programmed expectations. Before the film even begins, they are told what to feel, what to admire, and what to interpret.
This act — of prescribing understanding — is where I choose to diverge.

Let Me Feel It. Don't Tell Me How.
Cinema, by nature, is a subjective medium.
No one should dictate what I must extract from a film.
If you inject your interpretation into me before the first frame, you're robbing me of my own experience.

Anbe Sivam – A Script Audit by Sai Vijendhiran

Introduction

Even when a film is widely acclaimed and emotionally powerful, it's still important to ask: Does the story hold up to logical scrutiny?

That’s where Script Auditing comes in — not just to enjoy the emotional highs, but to investigate whether a film’s structure, character decisions, and plot mechanics stand up to narrative logic.

In this article, I’m analyzing Anbe Sivam from a screenwriting point of view — exploring inconsistencies, narrative conveniences, and the delicate balance between emotion and logic.
