Screenplay Adaptation

Your story, written for the screen.

A screenplay is a working document that shows how a story plays out visually, scene by scene.

Phoenix can help develop a screenplay or pilot script based on your book, working from an agreed outline and development direction. Book-to-screen work is exploratory. Phoenix helps you prepare and pursue opportunities, but no service can guarantee representation, adaptation, sale, financing, production or placement.

What we can do

• Treatment & Outline

  A scene-by-scene plan before drafting begins.

• Feature Screenplay

  A feature-length adaptation for film.

• Pilot Script

  A first-episode script for a television concept.

• Revisions

  Agreed revision rounds based on your feedback.

Who it's for

• Novelists with a standalone or series
• Non-fiction authors with a true or narrative story
• Published and self-published authors
• Authors exploring film or television for the first time

Why Phoenix

We look at your book as a whole, not one task in isolation. The same team can connect screenplay adaptation with the editing, publishing, marketing or media work around it, so each piece supports the next. We explain what we recommend and why, agree the scope with you before starting, and never promise sales, rankings, coverage or reviews.
