Screenwriter Collin Lieberg: Scripts, Pitches and Trends in TV and Film Artwork

Embark

What do you do when the national dialogue sucks? You start listening. And figure out better ways to communicate.I hear a lot of ‘I don’t get them.’ They’re stupid/crazy/too fragile/woke. You get the drift. We don’t seem to get each other. Self-involvement, lack of information or experience, blind adherence to a belief prevents us from seeing things from a different viewpoint. And there are many points of view, many sides to a story.If we don’t listen and don’t engage, we can't really know what another person thinks? And as good as we are, we're not clairvoyant. So get curious. Start with some questions. Let’s listen to understand, if not agree.This season’s Embark goes where few conversations go – to the other side. Or to many sides. Hop on for a little more conversation and a lot more ‘getting’ each other. All aboard? Let’s go.With Liz Solar, Voice Actor/ Writer/Communications Coach

Screenwriter Collin Lieberg: Scripts, Pitches and Trends in TV and Film

June 23, 2022 • Liz Solar

'The ultimate outsider creates a global community through a passion for writing.' In film or book publishing this sentence would be called a logline, a brief (usually one-sentence) summary of a television program, film, or book that states the central conflict of the story.

Today's guest is Collin Lieberg a screenwriter, creative executive, and world traveler.

He has spent many years living abroad and feeling out of place, so he writes about outsiders struggling to fit in.

He has a background in academia, management, marketing, and retail that all inform his characters and stories.

Collin is the Creative Executive for Cobalt Knight, a genre production company focused on telling feature, series and comic book stories about the human condition with touches of social commentary.

For the past two years he has run a monthly #VirtualHappyHour (#VHH) Zoom mixer to connect with friends and make new connections. Get in touch at collin.lieberg@gmail.com.
