Allison Schroeder Zitate auf Englisch

Zitat des Tages von Allison Schroeder:

I'm pursuing film and TV, and it's exciting because I feel I can write in almost any genre now.

In my general meetings, I certainly tell producers and executives that I'm interested in writing action films, but I think there's still a very specific set of writers they look at. And I don't think there's a lot of female writers on that list.

History is a certain way, but you just change the point of view a little bit, and you discover a whole new side of it.

I think a broader audience is really amazing. If there's no need for curse words or darkness, why go there? Why not make it PG?

I've been rewritten on past projects and thought, 'That's not what she was - she was this really powerful woman, and there's nothing wrong with that.' I'm going to keep writing them, and hopefully people will start making them.

They used to time our elementary fire drills so we could watch the launches. I thought that was normal. I thought every kid watched every NASA launch.

My first break was becoming a staff writer on the rebooted '90210.' And then I got stuck writing in the teen genre for a while.

I interned at NASA for five years, and I grew up in Cape Canaveral, and my grandfather was an engineer on the Mercury capsule, and my grandmother was a software engineer. I literally grew up playing on the Mercury capsule prototypes.

There's so many gatekeepers to getting in front of showrunners or executives.

Because they can no longer say, 'There just aren't any women to hire,' when you're surrounded by fifty of them.

When I switched to screenplays - 'cause I had done musicals and plays - the first assignment in film school was, you have to write a silent film. And it's tremendously helpful to learn how to do that because dialogue can be a crutch. If you can master a silent film, you're golden.

I can't tell you the number of stories I've told with a female protagonist don't get bought, or they do get bought and get changed drastically. Or, I will literally write into the script different races, and they get cast all-white. I hope that stops and it opens the door for more voices to be heard in movies.

I think you leave your imprint on every screenplay. I like to bring my experience as a woman to all my female characters that hopefully makes them a little more layered and complex.
