Name: Katie Adams
Email: katieadamswriter@gmail.com
Graduation Year: 2020
Track: TV Track

Short Bio: Katie Adams is a screenwriter specializing in dark female-centric stories. Before coming to UCLA, she studied film at Stanford University, dabbled in maritime archaeology, and grew up in the town of Big Bear Lake, which left her with the deep belief that mountain resort gothic should be a genre and a lot to write about. She won the One Hour TV Pilot category of Showcase in 2020 for her pilot Thimblerig and the Feature Comedy category in 2019 for A Portrait of the Serial Killer as a Young Woman.

Title #1: Cold Blood Club
Project Type #1: One Hour TV Pilot
Project Genre #1: Drama and dark comedy
Logline #1: All outspoken teenager and true crime aficionado Greta Green wants is for someone, anyone to see that there’s something wrong in her small mountain community. But when a dark turn of events proves her right in the worst way possible, it’s only the beginning for Greta and her friends.

Title #2: Thimblerig
Project Type #2: One Hour TV Pilot
Project Genre #2: Drama
Logline #2: When people-pleasing newlywed Naomi Clark crosses paths with a sardonic conwoman who shows her the cracks in her glossy existence, Naomi struggles not to unravel as she discovers what she really wants—starting with becoming an accomplice to the conwoman’s schemes.

Title #3: A Portrait of the Serial Killer as a Young Woman
Project Type #3: Feature
Genre Type #3: Dark comedy
Logline #3: Ramona Morgan is just another young woman who wants to make it in a male-dominated field, but attracting the attention of both an upstart young detective and a criminal psychologist could make or break her dreams of becoming the first famous female serial killer.
