About STORYSMART® 

STORYSMART®  is a modern, rights-first, independent storytelling studio that originates, develops, and produces true story IP in collaboration with creators, investors, and those who lived those stories. 


Our approach differs from the traditional Hollywood model by equitably aligning storytelling, ownership, and long-term value from the very beginning.

What Makes STORYSMART® Different

Most storytelling projects begin with production in mind.   We begin with the foundation, aligning story development, ownership, and production from the start. 


Every project is built from original source material and structured with a clear understanding of how it can be developed, protected, and expanded over time.


By integrating these elements, we move beyond one-off productions while developing story IP that will endure across formats, platforms, and markets. 


We also take an aligned approach to collaboration.


We structure projects so all key contributors and partners can participate equitably in the long-term value of the work, not just the execution of it.
