Opening scene
Fan wikis and piracy sites outranked the studio for its own film titles and cast, and AI answers cited unofficial sources.
Ilu Pictures produces and streams its own films, yet a search for any title returned someone else first: a fan wiki for the cast, a piracy mirror for “watch”, a forum thread for the watch order. Every one of those clicks was a fan who never reached the studio's legal stream — and AI answers were learning the story from the same unofficial sources.
The brief: make the studio's own catalogue the canonical source — for search results, knowledge panels and the answer engines that now sit above them.
The diagnosis
A crawl of the catalogue, a knowledge-graph check on 40 flagship titles and a citation scan of 180 AI prompts. Eight findings set the running order.
Feature presentation
Built on our Content Engine plan: Video schema, Entity optimisation, Topic hubs, AI Overviews — each one a reel that builds on the last. Pick a reel to see what shipped.

The catalogue lived inside one JavaScript player route, so search engines saw a single URL for 140 films. We gave every title its own server-rendered page with Movie, VideoObject and Clip markup, trailers with key moments, and a video sitemap.
