Alana Moskowitz

Alana Moskowitz (she/they) is a queer writer/director based in Brooklyn, NY. They are inspired by their multi-cultural background, the various places they've called home (from rural Upstate NY to sunny Los Angeles), and their caustic Gen-Z contemporaries. Alana is currently in post-production for their first short film, Weekend from Hell, an independently funded project that they wrote, directed, and produced that came out of Creative Futures Collective's Mentorship Program with Soho House, which they participated in last year.  Recently, she wrote two episodes of ANGRY BIRDS: MYSTERY ISLAND for Amazon as a staff writer, served as writers assistant on THE ACOLYTE, and was a story consultant for the Canadian web series Gay Mean Girls, which premiered at TIFF.  Previously, they were a semi-finalist for Roadmap Writers' AAPI Initiative and Outfest. She is currently a part of Story.Co's inaugural Accelerator Program with her multimedia project, Subterranean, and is repped by Alison Mann, Colleen Washington and Claire Jennings at Fourth Wall. With a penchant for things both creepy and absurd, Alana puts a darkly comedic spin on everything they write, using horror and sci-fi as a lens that, paradoxically, makes the world feel a little less scary.
