Hi, I’m Tom Lynas. I’m a Creative Coordinator at Aardman Animations, where I support development across feature and series slates, scout talent, and contribute to script editing and idea generation. I’m actively seeking opportunities as a Script Editor or Development Executive to help shape strong narratives from concept to script. Previously I worked on the We Are Lady Parts project at Working Title Films and have led or supported writer’s rooms, development research, and submissions. I enjoy turning ideas into well-crafted stories and collaborating with writers, directors, and performers to bring compelling projects to life. In my spare I'm also a successful screenwriter. A recent TV pilot I wrote won the Scribe Lounge Elevate competition and was shortlisted for BBC Writers Room.…Hi, I’m Tom Lynas.
