01
No. Our studio does not operate as a piecemeal design agency. High-end visual proof requires a unified strategy where the music, posters, pitch deck, and cinematic footage share identical creative DNA. Splitting assets apart dilutes the psychological impact of the pitch. You can order add-ons, however, we only deliver complete, cohesive ecosystem packages.
For Packages 1 through 4, we provide two options: a standard 50% deposit to secure your production slot, with the remaining 50% due upon final asset approval before delivery; or payment in full at checkout. For Packages 5 and 6, we provide a custom three-installment milestone-based payment schedule tied directly to production phases: Initial Art/Teasers, Master Video Assembly, and Final Delivery; or payment in full at checkout.
No. We operate strictly under a Work-For-Hire structure. You pay our flat creative studio fee, and we walk away. We retain 0% equity, 0% copyright, and zero claim to your backend points, box office royalties, streaming residuals, or publishing advances. Every dollar your story makes belongs solely to you and your producing team.

We take IP security incredibly seriously. Before you upload a single word of your outline or script, we execute a mutual Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) that legally binds our studio. Furthermore, all of our internal AI models, custom character sets, and asset renders are processed on secure, private localized servers. Your creative files are never trained on public open-source models and are completely hidden from the public internet until you choose to share them.
While current US copyright laws state that raw, unedited AI outputs cannot be directly copyrighted, your package is safe. Greenlit Studio performs significant human transformation to all AI images and video clips including custom script adaptations, professional human video editing, manually placed typography, multi-layered Photoshop compositing, and human music orchestration mixed with AI. The overall unified compilation of a pitch deck, poster, or edited video is protectable as derivative artwork under your brand. For more in-depth information, contact the U.S. Copyright Office at copyright.gov/ai.
Only with your confirmed digital permission. We ask you if we have your permission when you check out. Check Option A if you would like us to promote your project. Check Option B if your project is currently blind pitching to networks or hunting for traditional publishing deals, and we will keep your entire asset library strictly locked down in our private vault. Once your project is successfully optioned, published, or announced publicly, we love to celebrate our clients by showcasing their visuals. But you maintain absolute veto power over our portfolio usage. You decide.
To keep your project moving beautifully and efficiently, we do not use piecemeal, email-by-email feedback loops. A Revision or Revision Suite is a structured, seven-day creative window. When a milestone is delivered, you will receive a secure portal to submit a single, comprehensive list of structural or aesthetic notes. Our team then executes all your notes simultaneously, presenting you with a completely unified update.
This is what separates our top-tier packages from amateur workflows. We use highly advanced, proprietary AI model training. By creating custom digital embeddings and character models tailored to your project, we lock in physical features, outfits, and facial structures. This ensures your characters look identical across different camera angles, lighting conditions, and dramatic scenes.
Yes. If we begin working on one package and you realize your story requires a larger world-building or production scope, you can upgrade to a higher tier. Contact us by email. We will apply your initial payment as a credit toward the new package and adjust our production timeline for the new scope.
You do. 100%. We act strictly as your visual and strategic production partner. Once final payment is completed, all master video files, high-resolution key art posters, written dossiers, and distribution playbooks belong entirely to you. You are free to share them with studios, post them publicly to crowdfund, or use them to sell your books or screenplays.

1. Instant Portal Access: the moment your payment clears, you receive an automated login to your private creative dashboard. 2. Asset Upload & Questionnaire: you fill out a creative brief and upload scripts, outlines, or visual references. 3. Milestone Tracking: your dashboard updates in real time, showing when posters, scripts, and video renders are ready for review. For Packages 5 and 6, we email you to schedule a one-on-one strategy call with our Creative Director.
Packages 1 and 2 are delivered within 3 to 4 weeks. Packages 3 and 4 are delivered within 5 to 7 weeks. Packages 5 and 6 require deep cinematic continuity, narrative pacing, and market data mapping; expect an 8 to 12-week custom studio production cycle.
We offer expedited production slots on a case-by-case basis depending on current studio bandwidth. A Rush Execution Fee, typically 30% to 50% of the package total, will be applied to compress timelines for Packages 1–4 down to 7–10 business days. Packages 5 and 6 cannot be rushed below a six-week window.
You do not need a flawless, finished manuscript or a fully formatted Hollywood script. At a minimum, we require a detailed story treatment, an episodic outline, or a comprehensive narrative summary that clearly explains your plot, main characters, and overall tone. If you do have a finished script or book, you upload it to our secure client portal during onboarding, and our creative directors will analyze it for your project.
Not necessarily. While a finished script or manuscript is ideal, our strategy phases are built to pull raw brilliance out of concepts. If you have a rock-solid detailed outline, a treatment, or a highly developed summary, our team can help sharpen your words into studio-grade visual proof.
No studio can ethically guarantee a greenlight, a publishing contract, or investor funding, as those depend on marketplace budgets, executive tastes, your core writing quality, and how you promote your project with the PitchPackage™ materials you order. What we do guarantee is our work: the agreed deliverables, included revision rounds, and a professionally developed final package built specifically for your project.
04
Extremely specific. During your initial Strategy Phase, you will provide character breakdowns, clothing requirements, architectural references, and specific color palettes. Because we train dedicated, isolated AI models specifically for your project, we can enforce strict consistency whether your script requires accurate 1920s jazz club attire or hyper-specific futuristic bio-armor.
We utilize a mixture of elite, commercially licensed sound design libraries, custom audio synthesis, and professional voice talent. Every audio stem, atmospheric sound effect, and background track used in your proof-of-concept videos is fully cleared and licensed for global commercial use.
05
We analyze the specific commercial DNA of your project and match it against current buying patterns of relevant networks, production companies, and streaming executives. The package explains the target profiles, how to approach them, and the project-specific copy to use in pitch communication.
Yes. In fact, complex, high-concept, or niche genres like magical realism, Afrofuturism, surreal horror, mystical fantasy, or multi-timeline historical fiction benefit the most from our studio. These are the stories decision-makers can struggle to visualize on paper. By transforming complex world-building into visual and sonic proof, we make the concept more accessible and easier to understand.
