Marilyn Thomas is an award winning screenwriter and producer. After graduating Vancouver Film School's intensive Writing for Film and
Television Program she was awarded the BC Film Story Department
Internship for Da Vinci's Inquest. She returned the next year and also
had the opportunity to co-write Fleas under the guidance of Chris
Haddock.
Her short films have garnered her screenwriting awards, Including "Sxwexwatamsh", "Shi-Shi-Etko", "The Secret Life Of Cassandra Brown" and "JACK", which not only won Best Script, in the Bloodshots 48hr Horror Competition, but also Best Death and the Grand Jury Prize, as judged by Dan O'Bannon, shortly before his passing.
Marilyn's interest in digital media and how it affects storytelling led her to work on two webseries, "The Adventures of Little Jake and Many Skies", accompanied by a digital game, "All in A Hay's Work"; as well as the language preservation series "Our First Voices".
Working with Rival Schools, an innovative digital media company, they created "Brambleberry Tales", a series of interactive e-book experiences based on traditional Indigenous stories. The first two books released were both selected as iTunes editor's choice. The third book is set to release spring 2014.
Marilyn is now anticipating the release of her documentary "Path of Pilgrims", airing May 2014. She has again partnered up with Rival Schools to create an interactive component to accompany the documentary.
Marilyn still strives to tell stories in traditional formats and is developing feature screenplays with different companies. She hopes to get back to her love of horror and action, while continuing to explore alternative ways to enhance the story experience.
