Available to hire
I’m Jacob Seidman, a writer and producer focused on feature films and television. I write scripts for screen, contribute to writers’ rooms, and help shepherd projects from concept through production.
As a self-produced filmmaker, I’ve handled budgeting, set design, scheduling, and creative direction, learning to wear multiple hats in fast-paced, cross-functional environments. I’m highly organized, collaborative, and passionate about bringing stories to life on screen.
