Evelyn Gabai

I am an Emmy Award winning writer of many years experience, with over 100 produced TV episodes and 5 features to my credit. I have written for several major studios in Los Angeles (Disney, Nickelodeon, Marvel, WB, PBS and more), and I am trained to deliver quality material under tight deadlines, think quickly and problem solve. I can switch styles to suit your needs and I build a draft system into my work so that you will always be satisfied with the results.

Although my background is writing animation scripts, the principles/format/characterization/ development etc. is the same as live scripting. I also have live action writing experience which most recently includes a live action feature remake of Sinbad in production now. I have attached my TV/Film credits and I can email you a writing sample upon request.
