Submitter & The Project:

Hook:

What if the animal inside you was real — and the world could see it?
A boy. Five ancient thrones. A society that has forgotten how to feel. And a behavioral science methodology that has already changed hundreds of thousands of lives — now ready to become a cinematic universe.

Concept:

Animistix is a hybrid live-action and animated epic rooted in The 5 Chairs — a globally deployed behavioral intelligence methodology by author and coach Louise Evans.
The world is vivid, the stakes are real, and the emotional logic is grounded in science. Five behavioral realms. Five visual universes. One story that earns its spectacle.
Think Inside Out’s emotional intelligence meets Black Panther’s world-building, with the franchise ambition of Avatar: The Last Airbender.

Format:

Feature Film | Hybrid Live-Action + Animation | Fantasy | Family | Coming-of-Age
Franchise: Yes — film, TV series, XR & gaming, theme park licensing, publishing, wearables, and corporate/educational programs. Universe architecture fully mapped.

Comparables:

Inside Out (2015) → ~5× budget returned | $857M global box office
Black Panther (2018) → ~6.5× budget returned | $1.3B global box office
Avatar (2009) → ~12× budget returned | $2.9B global box office

What’s Ready:

IP & Materials:

✓ Published source books — 5 Chairs 5 Choices (Amazon, 2016) and The Magnificent 5 children’s series (Amazon, 2024)
✓ TEDx talk by Louise Evans on The 5 Chairs methodology (TEDxGenova) — publicly available
✓ Active global IP — The 5 Chairs deployed in corporates, schools, and coaching practices across 50+ countries
✓ Pitch deck and adaptation brief available
✓ Five animated behavioral realms fully conceptualised — theme park and XR potential mapped
✓ Franchise architecture defined across film, series, XR, publishing, wearables, and licensing
✓ All IP wholly owned and copyright protected · Full materials available under NDA

The Team:

Louise Evans — creator and IP holder. Bestselling author, international behavioral coach, and TEDx speaker. The 5 Chairs is not a concept waiting to be tested — it is a proven, globally deployed system with an existing audience and community.
Seeking a studio, production company, or streaming partner to lead the adaptation.

The Opportunity:

The Ask:

Adaptation partner sought — studio, streamer, or production company
Open to: Rights acquisition · Co-development deal · Co-production · First-look agreement

Why This IP:

The behavioral intelligence market is a multi-billion dollar sector. This IP sits at the intersection of entertainment, education, and emotional wellness — three of the most defensible franchise positions in the global market.
The 5 Chairs already has the audience. The methodology already works. The adaptation unlocks a cinematic universe with theme park, gaming, publishing, and corporate licensing running in parallel from day one.

De-Risked From Day One:

— Proven source methodology with 30+ years of development and active global deployment
— Built-in audience across corporate, school, and coaching networks in 50+ countries
— DreamWorks interest on record — noted strong potential as live-action film or series
— Multi-revenue architecture reduces dependence on any single window from the outset

Most Interesting Project For:

Studios & Production Companies:

A category-defining hybrid with a globally proven IP, built-in methodology, and franchise architecture already mapped. The source material is tested. You’re adapting a universe that already exists.

Streaming Platform Partners:

Family fantasy with emotional intelligence at its core — the highest-retention genre combination on streaming globally. Five built-in sequel hooks and a series spin-off ready to develop from day one.

Impact Investors & Education-Alligned Funds:

Behavioral transformation content with a real-world methodology already active in schools and corporates. This film scales that reach to a global cinema audience — and the licensing follows.
