About Me

My photo
Vincent Milburn
Ventura, California, United States
I am a Catholic-Christian American man. I also consider myself a cinephile and see movie writing as a gateway to many topics. I graduated from Franciscan University of Steubenville in Ohio with a B.A. in communication arts in 2008. I have worked in professional television and feature film. I have an MBA in film producing and would like to work in story development or on set. That's a little disparate, but I'm a complex person and I love the medium. I currently write script coverage for Family Theater in Hollywood. Feel free to check out all my links.
