Hi, I’m Rudy Cecera, an Emmy winning TV writer and Screenwriter. I have written and produced short films and TV pilots and am very familiar with Bio-pics and period pieces. Beyond writing, I’ve led projects through pre- and post-production, worked on festival selections, and pursued funding for new ventures. I love the intersection of storytelling and development, and I’m always looking for smart, marketable ideas and strong collaborators to bring them to life.…Hi, I’m Rudy Cecera, an Emmy winning TV writer and Screenwriter.
