Bio

Raul Sharma is an emerging Kiwi-Indian screenwriter with extensive development and production experience that spans Los Angeles and New Zealand. He holds a Master of Fine Arts in Screenwriting from the New York Film Academy and currently resides in Auckland, where he works as the Script Coordinator for Season 30 of POWER RANGERS.

Having written several features and pilots on spec, Raul’s screenplays have seen both local and international success. In 2020, his thrilling sci-fi feature TURNSTILE was the recipient of the NZWG’s Seed Grant. In 2022, it placed as a Quarterfinalist in the Academy Nicholl Fellowships in Screenwriting and Semifinalist in the Austin Film Festival Screenplay Competition.

Additionally, Raul has been selected for Roadmap Writers’ Pitch Prep Programme through their Diversity Initiative Competition, The Big Idea’s Toipoto Mentorship Programme, shortlisted for the 2022 Tahuna Writers Residency, and been a Finalist in NZWebFest’s Pitch Competition two years in a row.

When he lived in L.A., Raul worked as a Development Assistant at Pantheon Entertainment, where he had the privilege of assisting Oscar-nominated producer Andrew Sugarman in running his office, selecting scripts for development, and managing a team of interns.

Before that, Raul was a Development Intern and Script Reader for Hollywood production companies Arad Productions and EFO Films, where he provided script coverage on submissions.

When he’s not writing escapist genre stories, you’re likely to catch Raul at the cinema with his friends, jamming to hip-hop, cruising at his local skatepark, or playing with his two adorable pugs!
