In this chat with Talentville CEO Ben Cahan, veteran screenwriter and author Allison Burnett shares stories of how he broke into the business and offers advice on what it takes to survive in the challenging world of Hollywood. With such an unrivaled breadth of experience -- from indie to studio films, specs to hired rewrites, film directing to fiction writing -- you will not want to miss this engaging and educational interview.
Allison Burnett has been a working screenwriter for the past three decades, with credits such as Autumn in New York, Fame, Untraceable, and Underworld: Awakening. He has also published seven novels (Undiscovered Gyrl is my favorite), two of which became independent films -- Ask Me Anything and Another Girl -- which he both adapted and directed.
