On The Writers Block - Paynudeh Allen

Oh, yeah.

I mean, I guess I've been pretty lucky to have to work on so many shows and then also have quite a variety.

Like The Soul Man was a multicam and with adults.

And I say that specifically, I specify that because the next show I worked on was a multicam, but a kid's multicam.

And so multicams are their own beast.

And so that was kind of my introduction to the TV world.

And it's really cool.

It's really fun.

It's a different style of writing.

It's also a different style of production.

And so on those two shows, I was the showrunner's assistant.

So that that was kind of my view of things.

And then when I went on to work, be the writer's assistant on She-Hulk.

That was also really different because that's a single cam show.

It's also like a part of that, a big like, I mean, obviously it's a Marvel show.

So it's like a piece of this like giant story puzzle.

So that was really interesting to watch how that worked.

And then previous to that, like because I worked on multicams, like you're doing production at the same time.

as writing.

And with this, it was like, oh, we're doing all the writing and then production will happen later.

But then also like COVID kind of derailed that a little bit.

So that was his own experience.

And then when I worked on Washington Black with you, That was also a whole different beast as well.

I'd never worked on a drama before.

I'd never been in a Zoom room.
