My name is Aleks Stajkovic and I work as a writer. I primarily work as a screenwriter, but additionally do other forms of creative writing, namely, ghostwriting. As a screenwriter, I have written everything from feature-length film scripts to multi-cam sitcom pilots. I recently sold the rights to a short film script I wrote and one of my feature-length screenplays is currently in development. Outside of screenwriting, I have been writing professionally since I was in high school, having written articles on film, government and pop culture. In college, I started my own publication and served as the Editor-in-Chief. Since then, I have written several short stories, ranging across various genres, and have helped ghostwrite full-length novels, both in fiction and non-fiction, for clients on this platform.

I am a freelance article writer, copywriter, screenwriter, and a recent graduate of Loyola Marymount University, earning an MFA in Screenwriting. I have worked as a freelance article and copywriter for 4 years, working for companies like Screen Rant and Dade Group, LLC. I earned my B.A. at Emerson College in Media Arts Production, so I do have film/tv production experience as well. During my time at Emerson, I interned at Weed Road Pictures, furthering my writing education by analyzing various scripts and providing coverage based on my analysis. I am predominantly interested in writing and editing screenplays, however, I am fascinated with all facets of writing, linguistics, and the humanities and believe my skills as a writer would be aptly suited to the skills required of a copywriter or an article/blog writer. The goal of any text is to convey a message in a scrutable and compelling manner. Through my three greatest interests, writing, producing, and economics, I have hammered down the ability to achieve this goal in all of my work.Film Criticism

I'm a great writer looking to make some funds on the side, because writing isn't exactly profitable. I can type up anything for you at a very affordable price because I'm new to this site and am looking to build testimonies for my profile. My biggest strength is story criticism. I'm pretty used to reading other people's material. I've done it for fun while president of my university's screenwriting club and at a semi-professional level at a fairly successful film production company -- so, if you need notes, I'd be happy to help you out.Film Criticism

Hi, my name is Dante and some people have called me a pretty creative guy. I have been writing, filmmaking, acting, and all sorts of stuff since I was a kid, but in 2019, I took the steps to become a full-time filmmaker. That same year I also published my first book of poetry. I also have other skills like woodworking, singing, and fire-building, but those are probably not as important for a LinkedIn summary. I love connecting with people from all walks of life, as we all navigate the beauties and trials of life and I hope you reach out, even just to say hi. I care deeply for the marginalized and the oppressed and aim to provide a voice to the voiceless through my work. If you're interested in connecting and maybe collaborating, I'm all ears. Hope to hear from you soon, peace!Film Criticism

He/Him, 26, White and Bi. I'm very passionate about most things media - visual, audio, political and social. I've been writing for over 20 years and voice acting for nearly 8. I have a Youtube channel where I talk about things that may or may not matter to the average person but scream "IMPORTANT" to me, so if you're a fan of that sort of thing feel free to check out youtube.com/@UnholyBasil. Analysis and critique come second-nature to me, and I rarely hold back on either. Holding back is something I generally fail to do - every voiceover I make, I put 100% into. Every script I write, 100%. Every video I make, 100%. Singing in the shower, 100%. I seriously can't turn it off, it's a problem for me but potentially a benefit to you! I'm sure I'll be editing this later to sound more 'professional' but honestly, just hit me up if you have a project you're working on and need some help. We could all use more opportunities to make the world a better place right now, and I see helping someone else reach their desired vision for a project as one of the most fulfilling things in the world.Film Criticism
