Lunar Ticks was founded to bring the craft of professional screenwriting into the fast-evolving world of vertical series. Our bilingual team combines deep knowledge of Western storytelling and culture with the experience to collaborate seamlessly with creative partners in China, ensuring that the emotional intensity and rapid pacing that define today’s best short-form dramas reach global audiences.
Since our first release, Lunar Ticks has contributed to the growth of the vertical industry as both writers and creative partners. We provide concept development, scriptwriting, and translation and localization services for platforms, production companies, and independent producers seeking to expand into the vertical space. Above all, we believe that great storytelling should move an audience, no matter the screen size.
