John Washburn

A bit of a Viking on my mother's side, artist on my father's, and with a career straddling the roles from rock and roller to advertising creative director, I have always been involved in some form of storytelling. As a child I wrote spec scripts for his favorite shows (mostly long gone and in syndication at the time) and experimented with super 8 films, creating stop motion animations and what could generously be called extended chase scenes.

I write and direct for narrative, documentaries, commercials, and branded content. My award winning shorts, “The Dead Drop” and “Abasement” have screened at festivals internationally. I have another short in early development and a few feature screenplays completed or in progress.
