Diagnose
Some stories want to be read. Some also want to be seen.
A strategic review for high-concept SFF stories with visual, cinematic, episodic, or franchise potential.
Who This Is For
- Authors with highly visual concepts where scenes read like film frames
- Series-minded projects with clear scene architecture and world depth
- Stories exploring trailer, screenplay, or episodic potential
- Franchise-thinking authors planning beyond the single book
What We Will Assess
Concept Visuality
Cinematic scene density and visual logic — whether the story translates to a screen-readable experience.
Episodic vs. Feature Fit
Whether the structure and pacing are better suited to a series or a standalone film adaptation.
Adaptation Strengths and Friction
What in the manuscript works in adaptation — and what creates translation problems.
Story Assets
Marketable elements, worldbuilding hooks, and concept handles useful for marketing or expansion.
Series and Franchise Viability
Whether the concept can sustain multiple books, sequels, or expanded-universe development.
What You Will Receive
- Adaptation-path recommendation with specific reasoning
- Concept suitability assessment across media formats
- Scene potential analysis for cinematic translation
- Optional next-step offer for deeper development work
