From Script
To Screen
The goal is not simply to summarize a book. A pitch must show why a story works on screen, what the adaptation looks like, and why it has a potential audience. We bridge the gap between the tactile world of literature and the polished world of film.
The Pitch Deck
A professional 10–15 page adaptation package that answers the one question every producer asks: "What is the movie?"
The Adaptation Strategy
Establish the Rights
Before approaching producers, we establish that you control the necessary adaptation rights, reviewing contracts and establishing a clear "Chain of Title."
Don't Pitch the Book
A 300-page novel is not a 2-hour screenplay. We don't summarize chapters; we demonstrate the screen story—the conflict, the stakes, and the cinematic vision.
Be Clear About the Ask
Whether seeking an option agreement, a shopping agreement, or a production partner, we ensure your pitch ends with a clear, professional next step.
The Five Phases
A structured path from literary manuscript to industry-ready screen pitch.
Discover
Review the book, author, rights situation, audience, and adaptation objectives. We establish the 'Chain of Title' and ensure the project is legally ready for industry eyes.
Position
Determine the strongest film/TV angle and target audience. We identify the 'Hook'—the unique element that makes your story essential for the screen right now.
Package
Develop the logline, synopsis, adaptation concept, and a professional 10–15 page pitch deck. We build the visual and narrative bridge between manuscript and screen.
Prepare
Coach the author/producer through the verbal pitch and anticipated industry questions. We refine your 2–5 minute presentation until it's second nature.
Pitch & Follow Up
Present to appropriate industry contacts and establish a professional follow-up process. We guide you through the desired next steps, from option agreements to production partnerships.
The Adaptation

"A producer doesn't necessarily need a chapter-by-chapter explanation. They need to know what the movie or series is."
