Janice Perez

Screenwriter (Film & YouTube) + Content Writer Cebu City, Philippines

About Me

I'm a Freelance Screenwriter who's also been sidelining as a Content Writer since 2009 while still living in New York City at that time to study Film. I enjoy putting my storytelling skills to use for commercial products and brands, just as I do with fictional content. If there's a good story to tell, even from a business standpoint, I'd be more than happy to write about it. I was nominated for Movie Screenwriter of the Year by the Philippine Movie Press Club in 2020 for my screenplay on the sleeper hit, Quezon's Game.
