Introduce Yourself : Australian Screenwriter by Johnathan Burns

Johnathan Burns

Australian Screenwriter

G'day from Down Under! (corny I know). I'll kick of the Intro weekend since it's already Saturday here in Australia. I live in Tropical Far North Queensland, Australia where there's more Kookaburra's than there are script writers. The film industry is small (microscopic really) here but it's an amazing location for filming. Plus, writing works just fine in 'remote' locations.

I have a produced Short under my belt and recently had a script request via a Stage 32 Pitch (still waiting for the result). I have a slate of 16 completed feature film scripts, a few Shorts and 1 T.V. Pilot. I have Pitch Decks for most of them on my website, free to download!

I am also represented by and an Agent for AusPol Media / Oceaniacom Films, an Australian Company.

Great to see you again, Johnathan Burns! How is Australia treating you?

Ooo, good luck on your pitch! Let us know how it goes!

Thanks Karen "Kay" Ross . Australia has fallen into a pattern of lockdowns every time there's a few cases of covid so unfortunately nobody can make solid plans without risk. The pitch was a couple of months ago so I'm still waiting to hear back. Also put in a second script in a pitch session so its a waiting game as usual but hopefully worth the wait.
