The only daughter of a mad-scientist*-slash-film-nut, Vera Sticker knew at a young age that she had only two ways to go: she could wind up hating movies or loving them. Luckily, or maybe unluckily for her, she picked the latter, and now finds herself in the position of wanting to work in the hardest industry around.
After studying film and Japanese at Dartmouth College, Vera recently returned to her native New York City to work on her screenwriting and begin interning at an independent film company. She is currently developing several scripts, including two hour-long television pilots, a handful of TV specs, and what is looking like maybe a feature film.
Her particular interests are geek movies, strange combinations (like musical-horror-comedy or scifi-romance), and anything that’s just good solid fun. Her favorite pastime is turning people onto what she considers “lost classics”—those films of years past that, for some reason, aren’t as known as they should be—and she hopes to do just that for WILDsound.*Read: physicist
