maybe do the reverse. Find the people that review the treatment and ask them why they chose one treatment over another

Thanks for putting this together Scott! It breaks my heart to see you and your channel still not grow compared to other people publishing time wasting information, and have more subscribers and views than you. You've sped up my jump into this industry by ten fold, and I can't thank you enough. I hope the algo gods are kinder to you soon and your hard work on putting these videos together pays off because I know how many hours it must've taken to edit all this together and cut it down to be concise as possible. I'll definitely buy your templates soon to support you, cheers man

Best 19min I spent today lol Thank you for sharing with us this inside look at everyone's approach. I find the designing part of a treatment taking me the longest. It's so frustrating, because we are visual driven people....but then I see big directors like Shane doing simple treatments and it makes me want to put less effort. Dilemasss of life
@ScottPetersFilms11 ай бұрын
Hey Carlos, you're most welcome mate! Designing can be long for sure, that's why I made a bunch of drag and drop templates for people to try and speed up the process: www.thekitbag.shop if you wanna save some time :)

Glad to hear I'm not alone! Unless it's a music video treatment I'm submitting and just hoping for the best (I haven't done this in some time at the moment) there's always a call with the agency to run through the treatment, or if it's a job I've landed and I'm treating after the fact it may be in person.

Dear Scott! Thank you for making this video. I’m not often writing comments, but I would really appreciate if you could answer on it. Right now I’m trying to get in the film production industry and my friend taught me to write commercial treatments. I’m doing mostly similar as you described it. Though, didn’t get any job yet. My question is: what did you mean by trying to win the treatment? Do you send your idea to the client yourself? How do you get the brief if they didn’t hire you and with who you are competing? I think I missed some point here. Would like to know how the general connection with the production’s product request starts. Thank you!

Hey Scott! This must be one of the most useful videos I have ever encountered about this topic. Im very grateful to you and @nurniazfilms and Ebeneza and Tom. Please Im sure people would love to keep seeing thi type of insight videos from your channel. I have one question though. By what each director was saying I coudln't wrap my head around the usual lenght of the treatment. Could you let me know more or less the reccomended lenght of a treatment? Im a bit worried if they are too long they can exhaust the client/agency, but Im also a very descriptive guy like Tom. Thank you very much!
@ScottPetersFilms Жыл бұрын
Hey Luisan, I'm glad to hear it mate, you're most welcome! The length is a "how long is a piece of string" answer unfortunately, it depends on each circumstance, for me the very minimum is 4-5 pages and maximum 30 pages, 4-5 pages is normally the sort of job I've already been awarded, but I did once win a music video treatment off a 3 page pitch. I've seen treatments from both Tom and Ebs for 30 second ads that are around the 25 page mark, and if I remember correctly Nur told me about a large job that was a series of videos where he'd written 60 pages or something crazy like that. Hope that helps in some way.

@FivosVas Жыл бұрын
So i'm curious... When do you sit down and write a treatment? Right when you receive a job request? or after confirming it? I'm confused as to how that works, Like. do you spend all your tme writing before even knowing you might get the job? Is that how it works?
@ScottPetersFilms Жыл бұрын
That’s mostly exactly how it works. So I had a brief through for a job on Tuesday this week, the treatment is due next Tuesday, I was on another job but started working on it on Wednesday afternoon, I’ve probably put 2 days worth of time into it atm and have another day or so to go, depending on how much effort I want to give it, but it’s a big job so I will work on it some over the weekend. There is no way of knowing if I will win this job or not. Sometimes however I might be awarded a job based on my previous work or with the smaller production companies based on their previous work and then I can do a treatment after the fact of having been confirmed the job, these ones are normally less detailed to be honest.
