Montgomery Burt
The StoryHive-sponsored comedy short I wrote, "The United Guys Network," directed by Tabatha Golat, has played at over 50 festivals worldwide and picked up 5 awards along the way. I’ve completed four feature scripts and written for radio and TV in the past. My teleplay "Career Move" was produced for Alfred Hitchcock Presents, and my Twilight Zone script "Borrowed Time" won second prize in a national competition. CKNW Radio also produced my black comedy radioplay, "Leonard McTivey's Last Day at Work." I received two Praxis screenwriting fellowships through Simon Fraser University, and for several years I’ve run Upwords, an ongoing screenwriters workshop that develops new talent. I was making short films with my dad’s super 8 movie gear when I was fourteen and I've been hooked ever since!
