WGA Strike Roundtable | Evan Astrowsky & Brooks Elms
Kicking off season 2 of How I Got Greenlit, Alex & Ryan are joined by screenwriter Brooks Elms and producer Evan Astrowsky to discuss the imminent Writers' Guild of America strike from all sides.
Brooks Elms is a screenwriter and independent filmmaker. His specialty is grounded personal characters and writing story tension so thick it knots up your stomach. He's written 25+ screenplays, a dozen of them on assignment, and sold several scripts, including one with Brad Peyton as Executive Producer. Brooks was recently hired to rewrite a screenplay started by an Oscar-winning writer. Brooks began his career writing, directing, and producing two indie features (personal dramas) that he screened all over the world. And Brooks also loves coaching fellow writers who have a burning ambition to deeply serve their audiences.
