The Authorship Document

This is a one-on-one service for filmmakers who want direct involvement in defining their film.

The Authorship Document also exists as a standalone workbook for those who prefer to do the work themselves.
This service is for those who want the document developed with guidance.

What This Service Is

Working directly together, we create a custom Authorship Document that fixes the film at the level of intent, boundaries, and decision-making.

The document defines:

• what the film is — and explicitly is not

• thematic and tonal commitments

• narrative and world constraints

• performance and visual principles

• clear boundaries for the use of AI tools

• criteria for when the film stops

Once this document exists, development is complete.
The film is defined.

What You Leave With

• A completed, custom Authorship Document (PDF)

• A shared reference for all collaborators

• A stable decision framework during production

• Clarity that survives speed and scale

Who This Is For

This service is for filmmakers who:

• already have a project

• want to move from intention to execution

• prefer direct guidance over self-directed work

If you want to work independently, the standalone Authorship Document workbook is available separately.

Authorship can be practiced alone.
This service exists for those who want it practiced together.
