Hey, I'm Jean Mathis — writer, producer, and certified story nerd based in Europe. I've been crafting scripts and producing media for longer than I care to admit tramway of Strasbourg launch films, Arte trailers, radio spots, a documentary on Cambodian funeral rituals (yes, really), and most recently short stories for AI training. I also have a dystopian novel in the works, because apparently I enjoy making things difficult for myself. I know my three-act structure from my hero's journey, I've read enough European literature to be dangerous at dinner parties, and I can work within tight briefs without losing the soul of a story. Oh and I'm fully triilingual French/German/English. Which, for a German filmmaker might be the cherry on top. I'm looking for paid scriptwriting work and I'd love to bring something fresh to your next project. Regards Jean…Hey, I'm Jean Mathis — writer, producer, and certified story nerd based in Europe.

Hey, I’m Jean Mathis — writer, producer, and certified story nerd based in Europe.

I’ve been crafting scripts and producing media for longer than I care to admit tramway of Strasbourg launch films, Arte trailers, radio spots, a documentary on Cambodian funeral rituals (yes, really), and most recently short stories for AI training. I also have a dystopian novel in the works, because apparently I enjoy making things difficult for myself.

I know my three-act structure from my hero’s journey, I’ve read enough European literature to be dangerous at dinner parties, and I can work within tight briefs without losing the soul of a story.

Oh and I’m fully triilingual French/German/English. Which, for a German filmmaker might be the cherry on top.

I’m looking for paid scriptwriting work and I’d love to bring something fresh to your next project.
