LEE WAY LIN

Led On The Red Dot - Hustle in my HDB Season 2 (Episode 2) from story development to final edit, profiling two home-based entrepreneurs balancing ambition, family life and business realities. Developed character arcs that clarified what each entrepreneur wanted, what stood in the way, and how the hustle affected people around them. Directed interviews and observational shoots across homes, markets, workplaces and live customer events, adapting to changing contributor availability, schedules and story beats. Built the episode in post from actuality and interviews, tightening scenes, restructuring story beats, and shaping emotional payoffs so the two profiles felt distinct yet belonged in the same film.

Contributed to In My Hood Season 2 as a credited writer (Walter Lee), writing 9 full episode scripts and preparing first-draft assemblies for 2 additional episodes during a tight 3-month production cycle. Worked through high volumes of interviews, research and production footage to identify character beats and shape clear, character-led broadcast narratives. Maintained consistency of tone and structure across neighbourhood stories spanning local history, community voices and everyday lived experiences.

Story-produced Power to the People Season 2 (four-part international documentary series) across development, research, pre-production and post, working closely with Executive Producer Oman Dhas from early story development through edit. Served as main researcher across all four episodes and was credited as First Writer on the India and Thailand episodes. Restructured the Thailand episode in post when returned footage didn’t align with the shooting script or pre-production treatment by reviewing full rushes, identifying the strongest available narrative threads, and rebuilding a coherent documentary structure for the finished episode. Coordinated editorial clarity and a consistent character-led approach across four countries with producers, fixers, contributors and institutional stakeholders.
