Arcanamatic works on fixed-price engagements for studios, networks, streamers, production companies and their agencies. Every engagement starts with a briefing call and a written proposal. There is no hourly billing, and confidential work is done under NDA as standard.
First engagements
Script Psychology Diagnostic: US$7,500 per feature or pilot script. A written diagnosis of how the script works on its audience: where belief, empathy and tension build, where they leak away, and the changes that matter most. Report in 10 working days, with a briefing session for your team.
Script Doctoring Engagement: from US$25,000 per draft. The diagnostic, then page-level notes and rewrite guidance, two working sessions with the writers or showrunner, and a review of the revised draft.
Campaign Psychology Audit: US$18,000 per title. Audience psychology and positioning, key-art and trailer direction with AI concept visuals, release and platform strategy, and a story review of the sales deck. Delivered in 15 working days.
Studio and enterprise programmes
Development Sprint: US$12,500 to 18,000. Weeks of writers' room ideation compressed into two to three days: an audience psychology diagnostic, 10 to 15 mood boards and AI video demos, 3 to 5 narrative permutations and an executive strategy session.
Rescue Sprint: US$15,000 to 25,000. A 72-hour turnaround for a failing campaign or story: a diagnostic audit, a new narrative architecture and replacement assets.
Narrative Previsualisation: US$25,000 to 45,000 per sequence or 10 script pages. Script doctoring and psychological analysis, then era-accurate AI storyboards and animatics with camera mapping, a timeline export and an AI soundscape.
