About
I’m Eva Paunova, a screenwriter and creative storyteller from Sofia, Bulgaria, with 10+ years of experience shaping psychologically driven narratives across drama, documentary-adjacent development, and short-form/episodic formats. I love building hook-led openings, escalating character tension, and endings that land with emotional clarity—while keeping scripts practical for production.
Alongside writing, I work across art direction and motion, using design craft and workflows to prototype campaign-ready visuals and storyboard frames quickly. My background spans script development (from loglines and treatments to rewrites), editorial research and adaptation support, and concept-to-delivery creative for integrated campaigns—so stories can move seamlessly from page to screen and across formats.
