    paper Creating a Cohesive, Multi-Storyline Graphic Novel & Voice Narration

    I’m currently managing a team of writers, providing direction and feedback on scripts to ensure seamless integration of complex narratives. I also voice the character “Narrator”, contributing high-quality recordings for films and promotional materials. My leadership of the creation of several graphic novels ensures the saga stays true to its vision, resulting in a compelling and cohesive story that will resonate with audiences and boost engagement across multiple media platforms.

    paper Crafting Engaging Storylines for Multilingual Film & TV Projects

    I wrote characters, dialogue, and full scripts for projects in both Portuguese and English, conducting in-depth research to ensure factual accuracy. I worked with directors, producers, and script editors to refine content, ensuring each script adhered to the production’s vision while maintaining narrative integrity. My research-driven approach ensured that the scripts were both engaging and educational, contributing to projects that resonated deeply with diverse audiences.
