Adapting IPs

Creation is only the beginning. In this module, Laura Malin reveals the "industry secret" pathways that turn stories into produced media. Learn how to evaluate your work's potential and navigate the complex journey from a private file to a global release.

This session provides the professional blueprint for:

The Adaptation Audit: Identifying exactly "What is your adaptation?" and whether your story is best suited for the big screen, a streaming series, or the literary market.

The TV Greenlight Process: A behind-the-scenes look at how TV Series are greenlit, from the initial pitch to the pilot order and the full-season commitment.

The Script-to-Screen Pipeline: Understanding the variables that get Film Scripts picked up by studios and the mechanics of "optioning" your work.

The Publishing Path: Navigating the world of Books Published, whether as a standalone success or as a strategic "backdoor" to getting a film deal.

Master the industry standards for how projects are chosen, funded, and distributed, ensuring your IP has the best possible chance of reaching its audience.
