How It Works
A Clearer Path From Where You Are to What's Next
The order matters more than the effort. Each stage produces what the next one needs, so nothing is approached before the project can support the conversation.
Project Review
Review screenplay, treatment, pitch deck, budget, attachments, current stage and goals. Establish what exists, what is missing and what the project can credibly claim today.
In this stage
- Read of script or treatment
- Review of deck, budget and finance plan
- Attachment and rights status
- Honest assessment of stage
Research
Research grants, funds, producers, production companies, co-production opportunities and other relevant pathways. Eligibility is checked before anything reaches a shortlist.
In this stage
- Funder and fund screening
- Producer and company research
- Eligibility verification
- Deadline mapping
Strategy

In this stage
- Sequenced roadmap
- Stage gates and prerequisites
- Target tiers
- Materials plan
Execution
Research, applications, producer targeting, documentation and supporting materials — prepared, reviewed and organised to each opportunity's requirements.

Next Stage
Use the completed work to move toward the next meaningful project milestone: responses, revised strategy, further research and the following cycle.
