Shain Slepian

Screen Writer - Script Consultant

United States

I am a storyteller to my core, with a passion and determination for communicating creativity with clear logic. The challenge of grasping at an abstraction, but then expressing it through perfect language, has kept me utterly engaged with my work. I have had the good fortune to write professionally as a ghostwriter, and my work has been published in Scientific American and The Huffington Post. I have written over a dozen videos for the YouTube channel SciQ that attract tens of thousands of views. My continued freelance editing and copywriting has received many and exclusively five-star reviews on Fiverr.com

While this is a great place to read my script work, you can check out my essays and articles on several other platforms. My work can be found on Medium, Animation for Adults, Left Voice, and on my YouTube channel, TimeCapsule. My book, Reframing The Screenwriting Process, is available on Amazon.

Death Parade (2015)

Who says we all die alone? Death Parade is a 2015 anime based on a 2013 short film, Death Billiards. It follows the solemn work of the "arbiters" of Quindecim - a purgatory-like place where souls go to be judged as fit for reincarnation or "the void."

Over The Garden Wall (2014)

There are some pieces of art that use aesthetics so effectively to make its point, you begin thinking about its themes in a brand new way. Thomas Cole forever changed our conception of natural landscapes, from quaint and pastoral to awesome, overwhelming, and sublime.

Wrong Track

The car is empty but now she can see that the walls are unusually packed with graffiti. Words run over each other, cancelling each other out, making each other unintelligible, and the distinguishable words are just chunks of letters meaninglessly assembled.
