Founder’s Statement

Status: Founder’s Studio Overview v1.1

White Stone Studios exists because the world needs more than content.

It needs Jesus Christ — and it needs stories that honor Him with excellence.

In a media culture often marked by compromise, spiritual confusion, and disposable entertainment, White Stone Studios is being built to produce clean, family, faith-based, Hollywood-quality movies, television series, and commercials.

Our work is designed to glorify Jesus Christ, strengthen families, and invite viewers to follow Him without sacrificing production quality.

The White Stone Legacy is the studio’s flagship series. Adapted from A White Stone and The Elect by Jim and Merry Corbett, it asks a single urgent question:

Who will remain faithful to Jesus when following Him costs everything?

The end times are the setting. Discipleship is the story. Jesus Christ is the Hero.

We reject both mediocrity and compromise. Clean does not mean simplistic. Faith-based does not mean inferior. Excellence honors God.

White Stone Studios is being established as a lasting platform for high-quality faith-centered content. The White Stone Legacy is the first major expression of that commitment.


Executive Summary

Status: Founder’s Studio Overview v1.1

White Stone Studios is a faith-based production studio focused on clean, family, Hollywood-quality media across three primary formats: feature films, television series, and commercials.

The studio’s flagship project is The White Stone Legacy, a premium dramatic series adapted from A White Stone and The Elect by Jim and Merry Corbett.

The series is planned as four seasons of eight episodes each, creating a 32-episode initial story arc.

The studio’s core conviction is simple: Jesus Christ is the Hero. The flagship series explores the cost and beauty of true discipleship rather than using the end times as mere spectacle.

White Stone Studios uses an AI-assisted and CGI production model supported by Grok Imagine or comparable production tools and the studio’s Mission Control production system.

The model is designed to support visual consistency, character continuity, controlled production costs, faster iteration, and repeatable workflows across multiple projects.

Current Funding Objective

$45,000

Establish the production infrastructure needed to complete and release the pilot episode.

The current funding objective is focused on acquiring six dedicated production workstations and 12 displays required to establish White Stone Studios’ core in-house production environment.

4 High-Performance Windows Production PCs Two displays per workstation · 8 displays total
2 Apple Mac Production Workstations Two displays per workstation · 4 displays total
Production Environment Total 6 production workstations · 12 displays · $45,000 acquisition budget

This infrastructure will support AI/CGI generation, editing, compositing, audio, post-production, workflow management, production testing, and final delivery of the pilot episode.

No additional capital raise is currently planned before the pilot is completed and released.

Following release of the pilot, White Stone Studios will evaluate the completed production model, actual production economics, creative results, and audience response before determining the next funding phase required to complete Season One.

3. Mission

Status: Founder’s Studio Overview v1.1

White Stone Studios exists to produce clean, family, faith-based, Hollywood-quality movies, television series, and commercials that glorify Jesus Christ and call people to follow Him.

We refuse the false choice between conviction and excellence. Our standard is both.

The studio’s mission is not simply to make content. It is to create media that carries truth, strengthens families, respects biblical conviction, and reaches viewers through professional-quality storytelling.

Technology, funding, marketing, and distribution are tools. They are not the center. The mission remains the center.

4. Studio & Flagship Relationship

Status: Founder’s Studio Overview v1.1

White Stone Studios is the studio.

The White Stone Legacy is the flagship series.

This distinction is fundamental. White Stone Studios is broader than any one property. It is the studio platform, production environment, operating identity, technology workflow, and long-term content banner.

The White Stone Legacy is the first major series being developed through that studio platform, but the long-term vision includes additional clean, family, faith-based movies, television series, commercials, and other approved media projects.

Element Role
White Stone Studios Studio platform, production engine, operating identity, production infrastructure, and long-term content banner
The White Stone Legacy Flagship dramatic series and first major studio production
Mission Control White Stone Studios’ internal production system supporting structured story extraction, continuity management, production intelligence, and prompt generation
Future Studio Slate Additional films, series, commercials, and approved clean, family, or faith-based media projects

Jim and Merry Corbett are not part of White Stone Studios.

Their relationship and authority are limited to The White Stone Legacy as the authors and story/canon authority for that flagship property.

Their role does not extend to White Stone Studios governance, ownership, operations, production systems, studio strategy, future projects, or studio-level decisions.

5. Flagship Source Material & Authority

Status: Founder’s Studio Overview v1.1

This section applies specifically to The White Stone Legacy. It does not establish authority over White Stone Studios itself.

The White Stone Legacy is adapted from A White Stone and The Elect by Jim and Merry Corbett.

Jim and Merry Corbett retain authority over story intent and canon for The White Stone Legacy.

The adaptation philosophy is translation, not reinterpretation.

Production execution remains under the project’s production authority while the authors’ story intent and canon are protected.

Flagship Authority Area Authority / Standard
Property The White Stone Legacy only
Source Novels A White Stone and The Elect
Authors Jim & Merry Corbett
Story Intent & Canon Jim & Merry Corbett

Production Authority Jim & Julie Klinger
Studio Governance Not part of Jim & Merry Corbett’s flagship story/canon role
Studio Operations Not part of Jim & Merry Corbett’s flagship story/canon role
Future White Stone Studios Projects Outside the authority associated with The White Stone Legacy
The distinction protects both sides of the relationship.

The authors’ story and canon authority protects The White Stone Legacy from unintended story drift.

White Stone Studios retains its separate production, operational, technical, strategic, and future-project authority.

6. Audience & Opportunity

Status: Founder’s Studio Overview v1.1

The primary audience for the flagship series includes Christian families, churches, small groups, faith-based media viewers, and seekers willing to engage substantive spiritual questions through story.

The broader studio opportunity is larger than one series. White Stone Studios is being built to deliver multiple films, series, and commercials under the same standards of cleanliness, family focus, biblical conviction, and production excellence.

Beyond The White Stone Legacy, White Stone Studios can develop a broader slate of clean, family, faith-based content, including original projects and carefully selected properties that fit the studio’s mission and production philosophy.

Audience Segment Why It Matters
Christian Families Looking for serious, clean, meaningful stories that can be watched and discussed together
Churches May engage approved project resources around faith, courage, discernment, and discipleship
Small Groups Can engage episode-based questions, reflection, and approved study resources
Faith-Based Media Viewers Already engage Christian films, series, books, music, and direct-to-audience projects
Seekers May encounter spiritual questions through story before engaging more direct theological discussion
Commercial / Organizational Clients May need clean, high-quality commercials and visual media aligned with family or faith-based values
7. Production Approach

Status: Founder’s Studio Overview v1.1

White Stone Studios uses an AI-assisted and CGI production model designed to support cinematic visual quality and strong continuity without requiring the full cost structure of traditional location-based live-action production.

Resources can therefore be concentrated on story, character consistency, visual design, editing, voice, sound, music, finishing, legal review, continuity management, and quality control.

The technology is not the mission. It is a tool to serve the mission.

White Stone Studios operates Mission Control, an internal production system that ingests books or scripts and systematically organizes characters, locations, props, scene structure, continuity information, and related production intelligence.

That structured information can then support consistent production-ready prompts, reference packages, continuity controls, and downstream workflows for the AI and CGI tools used in production.

According to internal platform tracking, public proof-of-concept and pilot-development material created through the developing workflow has collectively exceeded 500,000 views.

These releases provide early evidence of audience interest while the studio continues refining the production system.

The workflow is intended to serve both The White Stone Legacy and future films, series, and commercial projects produced by White Stone Studios.

Traditional Production Burden White Stone Studios Approach
Physical location shoots Digital environments and CGI-native production
Live-action actor scheduling Digital character and voice workflow under studio direction
Large on-site crews Smaller digitally focused production structure
Weather delays and permits Controlled digital production environment
Traditional set construction Reusable digital environments and production assets
High reshoot costs Iterative digital refinement and controlled revisions
Continuity across long production cycles Structured character, location, prop, scene, and reference-lock systems

9. Industry Context

Status: Founder’s Studio Overview v1.1

Recent faith-based and biblical productions demonstrate two important realities: serious spiritual storytelling can attract substantial audiences, and high-quality traditional production can require significant capital as production scale increases.

The Chosen demonstrated that faith-centered television can attract substantial direct audience financial participation. Its early Regulation A financing structure contemplated significant capital for production and growth.

House of David demonstrated that biblical drama can perform strongly on a major streaming platform and that newer digital and generative production technologies are increasingly entering professional entertainment workflows.

White Stone Studios is not presented as a direct competitor to either project. These examples are included as industry context demonstrating both audience interest in serious faith-centered storytelling and the growing relevance of new production technologies.

Factor Established Faith-Based Productions White Stone Studios Approach
Core Production Model Primarily traditional live action, with selective use of newer digital and AI-assisted techniques in some productions AI-assisted CGI designed into the production model from the ground up
Cost Structure Casts, crews, locations, construction, logistics, and traditional post-production Designed for greater cost control through digital production, reusable assets, and internal workflow systems
Audience Demand Demonstrated demand for biblical and faith-centered dramatic content Targets clean, family, faith-based audiences through a scalable studio model
Content Emphasis Biblical narrative and faith-centered dramatic storytelling Discipleship, biblical truth, and clean family-focused storytelling across multiple formats
Distribution Flexibility Streaming, theatrical, apps, and distribution partnerships Direct-to-audience, digital platforms, licensing opportunities, public campaigns, and approved partner channels

The White Stone Studios opportunity is to pursue comparable seriousness, spiritual weight, and cinematic ambition while building from a different production foundation: AI-assisted CGI, internal continuity systems, reusable digital assets, controlled workflows, and milestone-based funding.

10. Series Format

Status: Founder’s Studio Overview v1.1

The White Stone Legacy is currently planned as a four-season, 32-episode adaptation arc.

Season Episodes Source Primary Adaptation Focus
Season One 8 A White Stone Establish the world, characters, tone, conflict, and call to discipleship
Season Two 8 A White Stone Deepen the consequences and complete the first major adaptation block
Season Three 8 The Elect Expand the story arc, raise the stakes, and continue the developing world
Season Four 8 The Elect Bring the initial 32-episode story arc toward culmination
Total Initial Arc 32 Two novels Four-season flagship series

The series is designed to remain clean and suitable for families while retaining serious spiritual weight, dramatic consequence, emotional depth, and cinematic presentation.

11. Development & Funding

Status: Founder’s Studio Overview v1.1

Foundational work is underway across studio production systems and The White Stone Legacy flagship development, including series architecture, Season One development, pilot scripting, visual development, character and location continuity, Mission Control, and AI/CGI workflow validation.

Public proof-of-concept and pilot-development material has already provided early audience exposure while the studio continues building the production environment required for long-form episodic work.

Current Funding Objective

Production Infrastructure $45,000

The immediate capital objective is limited to the six-workstation, 12-display production environment needed to complete and release the pilot episode.

Infrastructure Configuration
Windows Production Systems 4 high-performance PCs · 2 displays each · 8 displays total
Apple Production Systems 2 Mac workstations · 2 displays each · 4 displays total
Total Production Environment 6 workstations · 12 displays
Current Acquisition Budget $45,000
No additional capital raise is currently planned before the pilot is completed and released.

The pilot therefore becomes the next major proof point before White Stone Studios determines and pursues additional funding to complete Season One of The White Stone Legacy.

Pilot-First Funding Strategy

The funding strategy is intentionally milestone-based rather than structured as an immediate request for the entire Season One or four-season production plan.

Stage Objective Funding Position
Stage 1 Acquire six-workstation production environment Current objective: $45,000
Stage 2 Complete pilot production and post-production No additional capital raise currently planned
Stage 3 Release pilot and measure production and audience results Proof and validation stage
Stage 4 Complete Season One Determine actual requirement after pilot release
Stage 5 Future seasons Reassessed season by season using real production results

Current Season One Recurring Planning Model

Following the separate $45,000 production-infrastructure acquisition, White Stone Studios currently projects a recurring Season One production and operating planning model of approximately $198,000.

This is the current planning model, not the amount being raised today and not a fixed future funding requirement. It will be reassessed after the pilot is completed and released.

Category Season One Planning Amount
Subscription-Based Software & Business Expenses $18,000
Jim Klinger Compensation $90,000
Julie Klinger Compensation $90,000
Season One Recurring Total $198,000
One-Time Production Infrastructure $45,000
Initial Infrastructure + Season One Planning Model $243,000

The $198,000 Season One recurring amount is not being raised now.

The current funding objective remains only the $45,000 production-infrastructure acquisition.

The Season One funding requirement will be revisited only after the pilot has been completed and released, allowing White Stone Studios to use real production data rather than projections alone.

Four-Season Planning Scenario

White Stone Studios separates its one-time hardware investment from its recurring annual production and operating costs.

Subscription-based software and business expenses are currently modeled to increase by 25% annually.

Compensation for Jim and Julie Klinger is modeled to increase by a more moderate 5% annually.

Season Software & Business Jim Compensation Julie Compensation Total
Season One $18,000 $90,000 $90,000 $198,000
Season Two $22,500 $94,500 $94,500 $211,500
Season Three $28,125 $99,225 $99,225 $226,575
Season Four $35,156 $104,186 $104,186 $243,529
Four-Season Recurring Total $879,604
One-Time Production Infrastructure $45,000
Total Four-Season Planning Scenario $924,604
Four-Season Planning Scenario Approximately $925,000

This includes the initial $45,000 production-infrastructure acquisition plus four seasons of projected recurring production and operating expenses.

Important planning distinction:

The $45,000 equipment acquisition is treated as a one-time capital expense and is not repeated in future seasons.

Subscription and business expenses are modeled to rise 25% annually, while Jim and Julie Klinger’s compensation is modeled to rise only 5% annually.

These increases are planning assumptions only. Actual budgets will be reviewed after the pilot and again before each future season based on real production data.

Why the Funding Is Structured This Way

This approach allows White Stone Studios to build measurable proof before requesting larger amounts of capital.

The current $45,000 objective establishes the studio’s core production infrastructure. The pilot then tests that infrastructure at meaningful scale.

Completion and release of the pilot will provide a stronger basis for evaluating:

  • Actual AI/CGI generation requirements
  • Character and location continuity performance
  • Editing and post-production workload
  • Voice, audio, music, and finishing requirements
  • Production speed and throughput
  • Actual production economics
  • Audience engagement and response
  • Season One financing requirements
Build the infrastructure.
Complete the pilot.
Release the pilot.
Measure the results.
Then determine and fund Season One from a stronger position.

All budgets shown are internal planning figures and are subject to revision. Any formal investment terms, securities structure, ownership arrangement, or revenue participation must be separately prepared and reviewed by qualified legal and financial counsel.

12. Partnership Invitation

Status: Founder’s Studio Overview v1.1

White Stone Studios invites aligned supporters to help establish the studio’s production infrastructure and bring its flagship series, The White Stone Legacy, to the screen.

The current financial objective is specific and measurable:

$45,000 to establish the six-workstation, 12-display production environment needed to complete and release the pilot.

No additional capital raise is currently planned before the pilot is completed and released.

Following pilot release, the current Season One recurring production and operating planning model is approximately $198,000, subject to reassessment using actual pilot production results.

Other support may include release and marketing support, prayer, and audience advocacy.

Future financial support may extend to completion of Season One after the pilot is released, and later to additional approved White Stone Studios projects.

Financial supporters and partners are not being invited into White Stone Studios governance, creative control, legal structure, AI/CGI workflow, production systems, studio operations, ministry strategy, or strategic relationships.

For The White Stone Legacy specifically, story-intent and canon authority remain with Jim and Merry Corbett, while production authority remains with Jim and Julie Klinger.

Their role in The White Stone Legacy does not create any role, ownership, governance authority, operational authority, production authority, or decision-making authority within White Stone Studios itself.

The flagship series asks:

Would you still follow Jesus if faithfulness cost you everything?

White Stone Studios is committed to clean, family, faith-based content produced at Hollywood quality.

The White Stone Legacy is the first major expression of that commitment.

A story of the end.
A call to follow Christ.
