Representation Directory
A practical contact-role directory for scripts, books, treatments, adaptations, franchise materials, and rights strategy. Updated to separate attorney/manager outreach, book-query email targets, profile-only agencies, closed routes, and downstream publisher/producer paths.
This is the working contact-role map for Aurora Design Studios. It shows which professional category is needed at each stage before scripts, books, treatments, adaptations, or franchise materials move into review, representation, production, publishing, or rights negotiation.
