What is a script adaptor?

Script adaptors are professionals who modify existing scripts to suit different formats, audiences, or production requirements. They often work on translating scripts, adapting stories for various media (such as from novels to screenplays), or localizing content for cultural relevance. Their work ensures that the original intent and tone of the script are preserved while making it accessible and engaging for the target audience. Script adaptors collaborate closely with writers, directors, and producers to maintain the integrity of the source material.
