Hello.

“Rodger's insights on storytelling as a profession, an art form, a business and a way of life have been an invaluable influence on how I approach writing in any medium or genre. Do yourself a favor and have Rodger in your corner. Whatever narrative endeavour you are on will be made all the better with his feedback and guidance.”

“Rodger has been a pivotal influence in my creative journey. During my time in the 'Writing for Film and Television' program at the Vancouver Film School in 2015, he emerged as a standout instructor who genuinely motivated me to improve. His expertise as a teacher, coupled with his remarkable talent as a writer and story editor, sets him apart. His keen eye for screenplays has been astonishing and he provides invaluable feedback that can truly transform your work. I've had the privilege of having him story- edit four of my projects namely "Miss Man", "The Scapegoat", "Footprints" and "If", and each collaboration has been a significant learning opportunity. His insights into scenes and character elevate a screenplay and make it more nuanced that unlocks new horizons in the material and gives you a fresh perspective to look at what's on the page. Rodger's warmth and authenticity make him not only a terrific artist, but also a wonderful person. I recommend him without reservation.”

“Rodger quickly identified my script's strengths and weaknesses, and he provided clear, actionable feedback regarding how I could make my story reach its full potential. With his help, I was able to dig deeper into my story's core themes while also making my characters pop off the page. The result of workshopping with Rodger is a drastically improved script that still feels true to my original vision, and he was ultimately crucial to getting my project optioned by an experienced Canadian producer.”

“I've had the pleasure of working with Rodger Cove in many different circumstances. When I first met him, he was my instructor. After I graduated, I worked under him as a teaching assistant. Later, I became a colleague of his and had the pleasure of teaching workshops alongside him all over the world. At every stage along the way, I constantly learned from Rodger about the art of writing, crafting stories, how to create memorable characters, and most importantly, how to keep a sense of humour while doing it. Rodger is a writing instructor straight out of central casting. He has the elbow patches on his jackets, the beard of an appropriately wise man, and the voice that makes his advice sound authoritative. Luckily, having been a screenwriting instructor for decades, as well as a Bonafide writer in many different formats himself, he not only looks the part - he IS the part. All of this is to say that Rodger's ability to analyze any narrative and provide detailed feedback about its strengths and weaknesses is second to none.”
