Biography

Steve Brown is a graduate of the UCLA Professional Program in Screenwriting and holds dual degrees in Journalism and English from the University of Arizona. After a successful career in corporate copywriting for brands including Nintendo and Kaplan Test Prep, he transitioned to screenwriting full-time in 2023.

His work focuses on cerebral science fiction that blends mystery, philosophical inquiry, and thought-provoking social commentary while exploring themes of consciousness, quantum theory, mysticism, and the boundaries between science and the unexplained. Across features and television, he is drawn to ambitious genre stories that use mind-bending ideas to examine deeply human questions.

Steve’s screenplays and teleplays have earned more than 300 awards and honors, including wins at the Richmond International Film Festival, NexTV Writing & Pitch Competition, and the 58th Annual WorldFest-Houston International Film Festival, along with recognition from the Academy Nicholl Fellowship, Slamdance, BlueCat, Launch Pad, ScreenCraft, Cinequest, and others.

From the Judges, on PRECURSOR (2025)

From the Judges, on PRECURSOR

What gripped them here was the mounting sense of dread, built through disturbing visuals and unsettling religious overtones that hook the reader from the opening pages. The screenplay fuses psychological mystery, apocalyptic sci-fi, and character-driven drama into an atmospheric, richly imagined world, with sharp dialogue and layered subplots that promise a larger unfolding story. Its themes of time distortion, deja vu, and the unraveling of reality land as both timely and chilling.
