Paragliding in the Mountains

Screenwriting

The most rewarding thing you can write is a screenplay that gets produced.

To see those simple words transformed into moving images, sounds, and music, it's beyond words.

Rewarding is also the collaboration needed to make a movie.

TESTIMONIALS

"[..] Heloise is an incredibly complex character who tries to hide her vulnerabilities but her relationships and interactions with the other characters do a good job of highlighting her vulnerabilities in an effective manner. There is a fantastic chemistry between Polly and Heloise that offers up great comedy throughout Acts II and III. The final acts really ramp up the suspense and tension in an effective way that makes for a quick and enjoyable read. [..}

This is an entertaining thriller with enjoyable comedic elements that would appeal to a large production company and/or studio. The main characters of Heloise and Thane would draw in quality actors in the lead roles which would in turn help with overall marketability of the script. [..]"

“Avia makes a wise and tough-as-nails protagonist. With its stark landscapes and firelit scenes, the script exudes a sense of mystery and sadness. [..] Her modesty and determination are inspiring so far away from the usual clichés. [..] This writer is well versed in pacing and dialogue."
