Writing Samples
Examples of past writing work for film, series, and games.
KPOP Demon Hunters | Script Pages & Beat Boards
SCRIPT PAGES (Plane Fight Scene)
The first sequence I was tasked to write was the introduction of the girls/plane fight sequence. This I also storyboarded to address all studio notes while locking our genre-bending tone, character personas, and action style to lead the story team with.
Beat boards from writing sessions breaking story with writers (Erika Lippoldt, Bo-Yeon Kim), and directors (Maggie Kang, Chris Appelhans). From these boards, we would each go off to write our sections to launch story artists with. If not done in time, I would create a story launch outline.
FIRST STORY LAUNCH OUTLINE (Full Film)
One of the first things I did on the show was to process two previous script drafts, two sets of studio notes (Sony, Netflix), and the directors next step intents, processing all of that into a tangible story outline document that addressed everything as beats to begin launching story artists with asap.
Octopath Traveler Series | Pitch Deck & Story Treatment
EPISODE OUTLINES (“Ophilia” Excerpt)
In 2023 I was contracted to develop and pitch an adaptation of Octopath Traveler, earning a greenlight from Square Enix to then go on to writing a full treatment for a full 36 episode first season, and four season spine/arc ending in a feature film climax.
The Narrative Department | Game Writing Packet
GAME WRITING PACKET - The Narrative Dept
Examples of Game Writing I did for The Narrative Department, with Susan O’Connor (BioShock), and Will Shen (Fallout, Skyrim).
Kung-Fu Panda | Script Pages (2D Opening “Po’s Dream”)
In my third year of writing for the film, I was launched by the directors to ‘show us your vision of this film’. This was used to lead the film from there-on and served as the basis for everything that followed. The 2D element was to help differentiate Po’s fantasy’s from the CG “reality”.
Much of this was also used in the Kung-Fu Panda Video Game from Activision.
