"Paddleboat Pigs" Writers Room

I had the wonderful opportunity to participate in the School of Liberal Arts' "Collaborative Course: Writing for Children's Television." My team developed an educational preschool show, complete with a pitch deck, show bible, spec-commercial, and 12 mini-episodes within 10 action-packed weeks!
Paddleboat Pigs follows three swimming piglets (Soca, Juju, and Poe) as they travel around the Bahamas and learn about the islands' nature and culture.
​
My role as Story Editor allowed me to organize, edit, and ensure a cohesive and engaging narrative for Paddleboat Pigs. I managed the writing team by providing templates and specific deadlines, and proofreading scripts. I also worked closely with the Show Runner to edit the story bible and pitch deck.
​
In addition to my work as Story Editor, I also wrote two mini-episodes, "Pigs of a Feather/Hattie Marks the Spot." Samples of this episode can be found in my portfolio under the scriptwriting tab.
​
Paddleboat Pig's wonderful and amazingly talented team consisted of:
​Libby Hinson - Producer/Consultant
Maria Couchell - Show Runner
Annalise Allen - Story Editor
Lena Suurova - Bible Director
Olivia Merriam - Art Director
​Mila Oborenko - Marketing​
Danial Niazi - Pitch Deck Director
