Thoughts on the professional screenwriting life by Erik Bork

My Screenwriting Resume

This is the latest version I have of my “credits list” (which includes both produced projects, and unproduced scripts that somebody paid me for), from my agents at Creative Artists.  This is what they send to potential employers, usually attached to a writing sample. These days, that sample is usually a one-hour pilot called DO OVER, that I wrote on spec, and never sold (thus it isn’t listed) — but which best captures the kinds of things I’m looking to do now.

I just noticed this list is missing a feature I wrote for TNT a few years back, which was for a remake of THE GREAT ESCAPE. I reconceived it (with their blessing), using a new fictionalized America main character, different from Steve McQueen’s “Virgil Hilts” in the original.  This project, which didn’t get made, was to be produced by Jaffe-Braunstein Films and the legendary producer of the original movie, Walter Mirisch.
