Most projects don’t fail because the idea is bad. They stall because nobody bridges the gap between concept and reality. We step into that gap. Sometimes as a production partner when a film or series is ready to move. Other times as the outside voice that helps fix what isn’t working yet.

A lot of our work starts with momentum. Or the lack of it.

We help projects move forward by getting specific. Tightening a script that almost works but doesn’t quite land. Reframing messaging that looks polished but isn’t converting. Cleaning up decisions so a team can stop circling and start building. Ideas are everywhere. Progress takes structure.

On the production side, we support film and television projects with hands-on experience. Line producing. Budgets. Development guidance that keeps ambition tethered to reality. We don’t parachute in and take over teams that already function. When it makes sense, we act as the production company. When it doesn’t, we provide oversight that helps projects stay viable instead of drifting.

Marketing communications is where a lot of confusion tends to creep in, so we keep it simple. Copywriting is part of the work, but it’s not the goal. The goal is outcomes. Clear positioning. Messaging that persuades. Communication that leads to action. Whether it’s a website, a campaign, or a sales-driven narrative, we care about performance more than polish.

Story development runs underneath all of it.

Screenplay coverage, consulting, rewrites, and ghostwriting aren’t abstract services for us. They’re practical tools. We look at structure, character, and intent the way readers, producers, and decision-makers actually do. Not in theory. On the page. In context. With an eye toward what moves a project forward.

Stonington Media exists to reduce friction. To turn “this could work” into something that actually does.
