About Omar

Hi! I’m Omar — a professional screenwriter with real-world experience in story development, production, and pitching at the highest levels. I’ve worked with producers connected to Netflix, A24, Disney+, and Sony, and helped develop features alongside Oscar-nominated Philistine Films. My own work has caught the attention of major industry players like Riz Ahmed’s Left-Handed Films and premiered at the 2024 Oscar-qualifying Pan African Film Festival. I’ve built a career not just on writing, but on understanding what makes stories work — creatively, commercially, and structurally. Whether it’s shaping a narrative from the ground up or reworking a script for financing and market fit, I’ve been through it — and I bring that same care, strategy, and insight to my students. If you're serious about storytelling, you’ve come to the right place.

You don’t need another vague “script consultant.” You need someone who knows how to take a story from spark to screen — and can teach you how to do the same.

I’m a working screenwriter with real industry credits, international development experience, and films that have attracted major attention. I’ve currently adapting a headline-making article from The Ringer into a feature project that caught the interest of Riz Ahmed’s Left-Handed Films. I’ve worked with producers attached to Netflix, A24, Disney+, Sony, and more — and co-led the development of a feature alongside Oscar-nominated Philistine Films. My short film Demo-Lition premiered at the 2024 Oscar-qualifying Pan African Film Festival with a cast from Black-ish and Westworld. This is the real world I teach from.

My approach is practical, collaborative, and story-first. I’ll help you see your idea from a producer’s point of view, sharpen it for an audience, and build it from the ground up using storytelling tools that actually work. Structure, character, tone, pacing, dialogue — we’ll break it all down in a way that’s not rigid, but deeply usable.

A typical lesson might involve analyzing a scene you’ve written, outlining a sequence together, brainstorming story mechanics, or rewriting with a specific production goal in mind. Whether you’re starting from scratch or knee-deep in a draft, I’ll meet you where you are and help move your project forward.

What sets me apart is that I’m not teaching theory from a textbook. I teach what I’ve lived — from financing talks to producer notes, from story development across international teams to market positioning for grants and festivals like HollyShorts and Shore Scripts. I know how the machine works, and I know how to tell a story that cuts through.

These lessons are ideal for aspiring screenwriters, filmmakers, creatives developing a project, or anyone hungry to understand how professional storytelling actually works — whether you're brand new to the page or working toward a professional career.

Let’s get your story written — and written well.
