Our convo can span any stage of your project:
Whether you’re producing a low-budget short film, developing your first feature, or simply need guidance on your next steps in the industry, this consultation is designed around your needs. In a one-hour Zoom session, we’ll dive into wherever you’re at in your filmmaking process - from budgets and schedules to rough cut reviews and festival strategies - and you’ll get practical, actionable advice to move forward into production with confidence.
If you’d like me to review materials such as pitch decks, budgets, schedules, festival selections or rough cuts before our consultation, an additional fee applies. This ensures that I can give you focused, detailed feedback during our session.
Pitch Deck / Schedule / Budget / Other Materials Review (up to 20 pages) - $99 add-on
Short Rough Cut Review (up to 30 min runtime) - $149 add-on
Pilot/Feature Rough Cut Review (30-120 min runtime) - $199 add-on

"Vivian is a great producer and one of the best I have had the pleasure of working with in my 18 year career. You'd be hard pressed to find someone as dedicated as she has [been] for our project. She helped us in all aspects of prep, production, post, and helped us navigate distribution and the festival circuit to great success."
