Script Pipeline is a full-service screenplay analysis and resource hub designed for writers, producers, and film industry professionals.  For over 10 years, Script Pipeline has been a leader in screenplay analysis, serving not only as a coverage service, but a link connecting up-and-coming writers and development executives. Through a composite directory, Script Pipeline has gathered the specific needs and submission guidelines of production and management companies, literary agencies, independent producers, and creative executives searching for scripts. Along with extensive resources, this information is available through their members-only Writers Database, where users may search through 1,300-plus listings. Database members also have the ability to send inquires to our members-only E-mail for answer about writing, film, and the industry in general. As well as annual screenplay and teleplay writing contests, the company continues to offer top-notch coverage services and the potential to have one's material circulated to production companies, agents, and managers through our Writers Workshop, which reviews screenplays, short scripts, and TV specs and pilots. Rave reviews and success stories continue to fuel the Workshop, as more and more writers benefit from Script Pimp’s wide array of offerings, from one-on-one consultations to basic story notes. This past year, the 2010 Screenwriting Competition garnered over 3,000 total entries, and the TV Writing Contest continued growth from 2009. Operation Endgame, a former Workshop "Recommend" screenplay written by Brian
Watanabe, was released in 2010. In addition, 2008 contest winner
Evan Daugherty, after introductions by Script Pipeline, secured representation through Energy Entertainment and
later landed a writing assignment with Warner Bros. Script Pipeline was named one of the "Top 50 Websites for Filmmakers" by Moviemaker magazine in their August 2009 issue.

Realizing the need for a solution to the hundreds of spec scripts left unread in production company and studio offices citywide, Chadwick envisioned a "matchmaking" service between the up-and-coming writer and the industry to better serve both parties. For the writer, their material could be reviewed by an impartial third party, while the busy executive could receive quality projects via a much-needed filter. In 2000, Script P.I.M.P. (Pipeline Into Motion Pictures) was formed, and has since offered coverage services, annual writing competitions, and the Writers Database, a composite directory of production companies, agencies, and managers looking for new material. The company later changed its name to "Script Pipeline" in 2010. Chadwick has not only been instrumental in linking writers with proper representation and
production contacts, including Robert Nelms on the film Between (2005), but played a vital role in the funding
of two independent features, The Living Wake (2007), which garnered Script Beyond running Script Pipeline, Chadwick wrote Creative Screenwriting's "Production Spotlight" article for six years. He has led seminars at the Screenwriting Expo in Los Angeles, lectured on screenwriting and entrepreneurship at the
University of Southern California and UCLA, acted as a USC mentor, and has taken part in the Big Brothers LA mentorship program for
the past eight years. Over the past decade, Chadwick's goal has remained the same: to assist the budding writer with an array of resources on how to improve their craft and give those deserving of a chance the exposure they need in a highly competitive marketplace.
