About

Jen Brown is an experienced writer, marketer, and client services professional with a background in entertainment, email marketing, and SaaS account management.

Jen has worked on 85+ theatrical film campaigns, including Academy Award-winning films, acclaimed independent films, large-scale commercial hits, and everything in between at Global Road Entertainment, Open Road Films, and The Weinstein Company. She contributed to the campaigns of films from some of the world’s leading filmmakers, including Quentin Tarantino, Paul Thomas Anderson, David O. Russell, Oliver Stone, and Ryan Coogler.

She has written numerous screenplays, television pilots, and a young adult novel, and is the Founder and Editor of RETROPOND.COM, a website dedicated to ’80s and ’90s nostalgia for which she has written over 100 articles (and counting), created all of the graphics, and does all of the social media and email marketing. She contributed articles to the female comedy website COMEDIVA.COM, and maintains a personal blog dedicated to baking and book reviews at FRESHFROMTHE.COM. She also wrote numerous 1-2 minute short form entertainment news scripts for mobile content provider Cinema Electric’s PocketCinema.

Jen also has an extensive background in script coverage and feedback for both film and television. She has read scripts for The Black List, Film Independent, The Mark Gordon Company, and Script Pipeline. Her philosophy on script feedback is to not only call out what’s working and what’s not working in a given script, but to also provide ideas in how the script may be improved.

Jen holds a Master of Fine Arts degree in Writing for Screen and Television from the University of Southern California’s School of Cinematic Arts as well as a Bachelor of Arts degree from Willamette University in Salem, Oregon, where she studied English and Psychology. She spent a semester abroad in Ireland, where she studied at the National University of Ireland, Galway.
