Cori Schneider

I currently work in development with Escape Artists Entertainment, evaluating scripts and writing coverage spanning across genres, which has strengthened my ability to analyze story, collaborate, and contribute to a writer's room. I also assist in the development of scripted and live material for a comedy show at the Elysian Theater in Los Angeles.

My background includes writing and directing short films recognized at international festivals, as well as contributing to a feature film that premiered at the Austin Film Festival.

In September of 2021, I created Our Short Film Show on MBTV where I talked with directors and writers to find out how and why they create the short films they do.
