[Amorous Lesko]

Hi Everyone,

My name is Amorous Lesko. I manage a non-profit called Chicago Screenwriters Network and am heavily involved in keeping our organization running so I haven’t had a lot of time to work on my own projects. I told myself that this year, 2024, would be different, and I would set aside the time to work on my own scripts.

I’ve been taking production classes since 2023 and completed a Workforce Training Program for Entry Level Grips last year.

I love filmmaking and have over time risen through the ranks in experience from a production assistant to an assistant director but haven’t pulled the trigger on becoming a director. I guess I’m waiting for my own scripts to be created before taking that next step.

I’m really excited to be part of this class. I have a complicated script concept in my brain that I’d love to get down on paper and see developed. I look forward to taking this screenwriting journey with likeminded classmates.

Wishing everyone the best.
