StoryNerve Pricing Policy
A values driven approach to access, sustainability, and creative integrity
StoryNerve exists to support creators through thoughtful, rigorous story development. This work requires depth, care, and presence, and it should not be a privilege. To keep this work both accessible and sustainable, StoryNerve uses a sliding scale model.
Independent creators, funded teams, and institutions contribute at different levels, reflecting their resources and scope of engagement. This structure supports a wide range of voices while protecting the depth and integrity of the work.
How Sliding Scale Works
Each offering has three tiers.
You choose the rate that aligns with your circumstances.
Supported Rate:
For creators experiencing financial strain or limited access to funding.
Standard Rate:
For individuals with stable income or project support. These rates sustain the practice.
Institutional Rate:
For studios, production companies, universities, labs, accelerators, and funded teams.
Institutional participation helps sustain the practice and expand access to others.
Powerful storytelling depends on diversity of voice and depth of development.
Institutional clients play an important role in sustaining a creative ecosystem where more stories can be developed with rigor and care.
This pricing structure is grounded in transparency, fairness, generosity, sustainability, and stewardship.
Supported rates are available. No application required. Because story work should not be a privilege.
