A. Cole / Urban Novel Studios

A. Cole is credited as creator and writer of The Way It Is, released by Urban Novel Studios. The opening episodes identify an unpublished novel written in 2004 as the source, now adapted by its author to a modern setting.

The work matters as an ensemble commitment. Adrianna’s coming of age crosses parents, friends, school, romantic relationships and public responsibility; continuity has to mean continuing social relationships as well as matching faces. Nine complete original episodes establish a sustained practice.

The first description explicitly discloses AI-generated/assisted visuals and voices while retaining human authorship of the story. Exact models, named voice performers, full crew and budget remain unknown. The later shopping-commission disclosure is preserved separately from production financing. A fuller personal identity is not inferred from the A. Cole credit.
