Submitting an inquiry does not transfer ownership of your manuscript. Please don't send a manuscript at this stage. If one is needed, we'll agree a delivery method with you first. Read our Manuscript Confidentiality policy and how every project is defined in writing.

What happens after you submit

  1. You'll see a confirmation on screen only once your inquiry has been saved successfully.
  2. Northvale Studio reviews the details you shared about your book and goals.
  3. We follow up by email to discuss your story, ask questions, and, if appropriate, arrange how any manuscript material could be shared.
  4. If we both decide to proceed, you receive a written project agreement to review before any production begins.

Project agreement

Your Project, Clearly Defined.

Every accepted project has a written agreement, approved by both parties, before production begins. It sets out:

A

Scope and Deliverables

The production format, target duration, number of scenes or episodes where applicable, script or storyboard deliverables, final video format and resolution, and any included promotional materials.

B

Revisions and Approvals

The number of revision rounds, what counts as a revision, how feedback is submitted, and how additional changes are discussed and approved.

C

Timeline and Delays

An estimated production schedule, review deadlines, author responsibilities, and a process for handling delays or changes to the project scope.

D

Cancellation and Disputes

The applicable cancellation arrangements, responsibilities of both parties, and the dispute-resolution process, agreed before the project begins.

Your project agreement will define the specific deliverables, revision limits, schedule, responsibilities, and applicable rights for your production. Work begins only after the project scope and terms have been agreed in writing.

This summary is provided for business clarity only and is not legal advice. Each project agreement should be reviewed for compliance with applicable law, and you may wish to seek independent legal advice before signing.
