About Emily Rued

I\'m an actor and screenwriter who feels compelled to tell important stories about humanity and empathy-with a little humor. I\'ve written stories about grieving mother, cell phones turning us into zombies, being best friends with a ghost, an at home euthanasia, a little boy who goes looking for his grandfather after he\'s told \"We lost grandpa. He\'s frozen in sleep,\" and am currently writing a pilot about about a mortician dating a serial killer. And my podcast psycho analysis killers from famous horror movies. It seems I may be working through some existential stuff in my writing, sure, but even death can be funny. There\'s nothing more universal than life and death and wanting to laugh!HERE ARE SOME OF MY CAREER HIGHLIGHTS:• Winner Grand Jury Prize Best Feature Screenplay 2021 Sherman Oaks Film Festival (GOOD GRIEF)• Winner Best Narrative Screenplay 2021 LA Under the Stars Film Festival (GOOD GRIEF)•Screenwriter accolades include Finalist placements at Scriptapalooza, SF Indie Competition, Los Angeles International Screenplay Awards, Launch Pad Feature Competition, Filmmatic Drama Screenplay Awards, and Crimson Screen Horror Film Fest• Secured partial funding for film (GOOD GRIEF)• I got to act in a movie w/ my husband (LET US IN) now everywhere you can rent a movie online• Just completed my directing debut for film that Won Best Dark Comedy (GIFT OF PEACE)• Creator, Producer, Co-Writer, Star of 3 Seasons of Web Series MAGGIE featuring Jorge Garcia and Samantha Sloyan on Amazon Prime• You can hear my voice on the English dub of several Netflix seriesWeather you\'re looking to collaborate on one my films or one of yours, I\'m down!CONTACT ME:e••••••••@gmail.com
