Satya Mai
Screenwriting consultant
I have worked in the entertainment industry for over a decade. Despite cinema being an inherently collaborative medium, many creators find themselves going it alone, the sole voice of advocacy for themselves and their work. Storytelling is fundamental to the human condition, but without support, many ideas never make it to the page, let alone into the world. My objective is to support both the art and the artist, to guide you through the various hazards of the creative process and out the other side with a story you are truly confident in. I customize my programs to each individual writer. Together, we refine your voice, execute your vision, and develop your unique artistic process.
​
I offer a range of services from screenwriting to coaching and everything in between.
​
The world needs better stories. Please, for the love of God, tell yours.

Discovery Call:
Every writer, and every project, is unique. Wether you are in the idea phase or about to lock your final draft, looking for guidance, collaboration, or an accountability buddy, I tailor my services to each individual and their story. In this FREE 30 minute zoom call we get a chance to connect one-on-one. I learn about your project, vision, and the kind of support you are looking for. From there, I'll create a personalized program specific to you and your script. ​​

Script Development/ Coaching:
Want more support? I offer a range of monthly, bi-monthly, or weekly support for the duration of your revision process. We dive into your creative journey, build a plan to get you to the final draft, and focus on your growth as an artist alongside your project. I read and give notes on a draft by draft basis and offer accountability and advocacy throughout the various stages of development.

“Satya challenges you to go deeper, further, and explore more engaging plots, story arcs, and character. She is the kind of support you need when you are around ‘yes’ people. She is not that. She will keep you on your toes, offering insight and wisdom…backed with a solid work ethic and focus on deliverables. Being in a writing room with Satya is exciting. You find yourself going on thrilling journeys into unknown creative waters, only to come back from the meander, with an alchemised golden idea for any story… I can thoroughly recommend Satya as a consultant, writer and someone you want to be around…I count myself as one of the lucky ones to work alongside her as a world class screenwriter and consultant.”
