Screenplays

Well into his career as editor of New Mobility, Tim decided to try his hand at writing screenplays. After completing his first script, he enrolled in UCLA’s professional screenwriting program online, took an advanced UCLA course later, and continues to work on subsequent scripts. As of this date, one of his screenplays, Magma Rising, has placed as a quarterfinalist in both the Austin Film Festival screenwriting competition and the Page International Screenwriting competition. Here are excerpts from opening scenes of four of his screenplays.

Magma Rising
