LAUREN WARREN
HELLO THERE!
I’m an award-winning writer and producer with a multidisciplinary background in screenwriting, game writing, and content strategy. I craft impactful, character-driven stories that resonate across platforms—from scripted media to interactive experiences and digital campaigns. Blending creative vision with strategic insight, I collaborate cross-functionally to develop narratives that are emotionally grounded, audience-focused, and built for engagement.
Whether shaping dialogue, building worlds, or leading content initiatives, I thrive at the intersection of storytelling, innovation, and collaboration. My mission—whether building a world, a brand, or a story arc—is to create narratives that feel authentic, immersive, and emotionally true across mediums, genres, and audiences.
​
​Influenced by classics like Aliens and Terminator 2: Judgment Day, I penned my first script—a Terminator 3 spec—at 12, with aspirations to star and direct. Since then, I've made crafting high-stakes dramas featuring dynamic female protagonists, nuanced antiheroes, action, and dark humor my specialty.
​
I'm an alumna of the Los Angeles branch of the Identity School of Acting and former host of the Nerds of Prey podcast. I created Validvictorian Productions as a platform for emerging storytellers to transform entertainment through authentic, inclusive narratives that reflect our world.
​
Four TED talks I could do with no prep:
-
The Twilight Zone: Often Imitated, Never Duplicated
-
The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift: Misunderstood Masterpiece
-
Señora Acero and La Reina del Sur: Telenovela & Storytelling Perfection
-
The perfect Fallout 4 ending? Take everyone out! ​​​
​
In my spare time, I'm an avid multi-platform gamer and music producer. My dream projects include adapting Red Dead Redemption, Watch Dogs and Far Cry for television. I can't (and won't) reveal how many times I've replayed Grand Theft Auto V or Fallout 4, but I can say it's somewhere in the low twenties and they NEVER get old. I think classic Godzilla films are aces. My dog Olive serves as my most loyal writing partner and offers judgmental sighs and foot warming while I work.
