What is a script reader intern?

A Script Reader Intern reviews and analyzes screenplays for production companies, agencies, or studios. Their main task is to write coverage, which includes a summary and critical assessment of the script’s strengths and weaknesses. This helps executives decide which scripts to develop. Interns gain hands-on experience in storytelling, industry trends, and script evaluation. This role is ideal for aspiring screenwriters, development executives, or anyone interested in film and TV production.
