10:00am-1:00pm
Join us for a Q&A and then a rousing discussion led by JMS as he details his career and tips about working in Hollywood.
JMS' movie "Changeling" starring Angelina Jolie was a critical and commercial smash. Directed by superstar Clint Eastwood, it details the true story about a shameful moment in Los Angeles history.
He currently has five films in production including "Lensman" for Academny Award winning director Ron Howard.
Emmy, Hugo, Saturn, Eisner and Bradbury Award Winner / BAFTA (British Academy Award) nominee.
In his nearly thirty-year career, JMS has worked for some of the top directors and producers in Hollywood. The breath and depth of his screenwriting and producing career is vast; but his skills extend even further into novels, short stories, comic books, journalism - just about anything and everything you can imagine a writer to be, he is.
Join us and the man Variety has called "the consumate professional." It's FREE! and EVERYONE'S WELCOME!
Networking! Swag! Giveaways! ZOMBIES? (not so much)
