FUTURE-PROOF YOUR MOVIE
1. Every movie is execution dependent now.
2. If your film isn’t very good or great, it will be punished.
3. There’s pressure on costs like never before.
YOU HAVE THREE NEW PROBLEMS
WHAT YOU’RE DOING NOW WON’T WORK ANYMORE
It’s no longer okay to wait for the test screening - and “fix it in post.”
At best, that’s too expensive.
At worst, it might be too late to ever fix your film’s problems. And even if you do fix them, who wants to make a bad first impression?
THAT’S WHY WE CREATED A NEW SOLUTION
It’s basically a test screening for your script.
So you can “fix it in prep.”
Before you spend the big money.
For half the cost of a test screening (or 99% less $$ than the average reshoot).
TAKE A VICTORY LAP, NOT THE BLAME
Future-proof your movie. No AI. Not some B.S. black box formula.
Just real human audience responses to your story at scale.
HOW IT WORKS
Zoodiker was created by filmmakers with a $2 billion track record who deeply value the art of writing. It is designed to “fix it in prep” (or even before) by applying the test screening process to screenplays.
We recruit an audience of 200+ readers (which is statistically significant) who are frequent moviegoers. They read, rate and comment on your script — all on our secured reading platform.
You get a report with the same metrics used for test screenings (top 2 boxes, definite recommend; ratings of key elements and characters; most & least liked; pacing & length; segmentation by age, gender & ethnicity; and written comments.
You also learn more than you can from a test screening: our platform tracks real-time reader engagement and story momentum — and has proven that patterns in pausing are highly predictive of story success.
Zoodiker doesn’t replace the development process — in the same way that test screenings don’t replace the post process.
But it might save you a fortune.
PATENT PENDING
CASE STUDY 1
After the Russell Crowe film “Unhinged” was completed but before it was released, we tested the screenplay.
The question was: could readers identify the problems in the shooting script that later required an expensive reshoot?
The answer was a resounding yes. The readers identified every single significant problem in the story.
“Zoodiker would have saved us $1.3 Million in reshoots costs alone. Where the f*** were you guys 18 months ago?”
CASE STUDY 2
Two films. Same writer/director. Even some of the same stars. Both period pieces.
242 Zoodiker Readers who had not seen either movie read each script.
The question was: could readers predict a successful outcome vs a historic flop from the same writer/director in a similar style?
The answer again was a resounding yes. Over 5x as many readers would “Definitely Recommend” American Hustle over Amsterdam.
American Hustle is the highest-rated script Zoodiker has tested. Amsterdam is the lowest.
