Assess your story’s screen potential, prepare the adaptation conversation, and plan the audience a film needs. Start with the rights, material, and objectives you bring today.
Your book introduces the story. Your campaign invites the audience.
Start with the connection between your book and the people who care about the subject or story. Plan a relevant purchase, screening, or subscription opportunity and a clear follow-up invitation.

Adjust the sample funnel numbers
Use your own prices, costs, and conversion assumptions. This is a planning model, not a live advertising or checkout connection.
Attract readers and viewers.
Use a book, preview, trailer, or screening offer to introduce the film to a defined audience.
Deliver and follow up.
Deliver purchases. Invite voluntary subscribers into email updates, creator content, interviews, and screening announcements.
Connect to the campaign.
Invite the appropriate audience to your approved reward campaign, premiere, community screening, or independently arranged financing route.
Already building a campaign? Give the audience a clear next step.
Choose a route to see how the book-and-film audience plan connects with the campaign. Studio review, rewards, and investment offerings follow different requirements.
Angel Studios
Prepare a prototype or screening material for the studio’s project-review route. Acceptance and an agreement come before any studio-supported release.
Review the platform’s route ↗Platform names identify potential routes, not IME affiliations or acceptance. IME provides agreed audience and campaign services. Any securities offering is handled separately by the film owner’s legal and qualified financing professionals.
