Service Overview
I provide narrative direction at the highest level — overseeing story, worldbuilding, and narrative coherence across entire projects, productions, and franchises. This role governs not individual scenes or scripts, but the structure, meaning, and long-term integrity of the narrative as a whole.
Narrative Authority
Narrative direction establishes the core narrative vision. Themes, tone, mythology, character arcs, and narrative rules are defined at the outset and maintained consistently as a project evolves. This ensures the story remains intentional rather than reactive.
Story Architecture
I design narrative frameworks that scale — story bibles, lore systems, character matrices, timeline logic, and narrative constraints that allow multiple contributors to work in parallel without fragmenting the story.
Franchise & Worldbuilding Oversight
For long-running or multi-format projects, narrative direction protects continuity across games, comics, cinematic content, real-time experiences, and future expansions. The narrative is treated as a living system with rules, history, and internal logic.
Cross-Disciplinary Integration
Narrative direction interfaces directly with design, art direction, systems architecture, and production leadership. Story decisions are grounded in real constraints — gameplay mechanics, visual language, technical pipelines — ensuring narrative intent survives execution.
Guiding Writers & Teams
I guide writers, designers, and creators through narrative intent rather than micromanagement. Clear narrative principles allow teams to produce aligned work while retaining creative autonomy.
Applications
Narrative direction is suited to narrative-driven games, entertainment franchises, original IP development, transmedia projects, and any production where story coherence, longevity, and depth are critical to success.
