A Creative Executive’s Perspective On Notes That Actually Help Writers

Notes can make your script sing or send it off key. We sit down with producer and creative development exec Andrew Lang (Dark Horse, Paramount, Montecito) to unpack how feedback actually works inside the industry. What helps, what harms, and how writers can use notes to sharpen intention, clarify stakes, and protect the heart of their story.

If you’re a screenwriter learning to navigate feedback or a producer wrangling creative alignment, this conversation gives you the tools you need to make your collaborations stronger.
