Linda Andersson is a writer/director/producer originally from Florida and now living in Los Angeles. She began her screenwriting career several years ago, in Florida, when she realized that she was more interested in bringing her characters to life, rather than keeping them trapped between the pages of books. After she became a finalist in several TV writing contests, she decided to take it to the next level and began directing and producing several short films, with all of them making the rounds on the film festival circuit.

In 2007, Andersson packed up her life and made the big move from Florida to Los Angeles where she began working with actress, Deborah Stewart, and within months of Linda’s move, they produced the TV pilot, “The Seer.”

Linda’s screenwriting efforts were rewarded during late 2008 when she sold her first feature length screenplay, “Pyramid Scheme,” which is currently in post-production. Andersson is now
in production of “InSight” a webseries based on “The Seer.”

Here is a short interview with Linda, discussing her projects and film fund-raising efforts:

Nina: You’ve actually made a number of short films so far. Can you name a few for us?

Linda: Sure. As writer/producer we have “Moving Out!” And as writer/director I’ve made “Misconception,” “Mood Swing,” “Torn,” “The Seer” pilot, “When The Time’s Right,” “The 6 Month Rule,” and the web series “InSight.”

Nina: What current projects are you working on?

Linda: Right now I’m working on a novel based on “The Seer/InSight” film project. In the future, I hope to fund a vampire film, and the feature “The Rise of The Seer.”

Nina: What have been the biggest stumbling blocks for you in making your films?

Linda: The only stumbling block on the large scale is funding. On a small scale, in Los Angeles it’s finding locations that aren’t way over-priced because of the studio system… Since I’m not an actor, SAG does not work for me, so having to work within their rules can be challenging. But, it is nice to have really good actors to work with, so…

Nina: What are you doing now to finance your projects?

Linda: We are trying to go thru personal/professional networking. Online fundraising is too time consuming for the amount of funds raised, I think.

Nina: Where can people go to learn more about you and your current projects?

Linda: They can go to these links -

This ends the interview. But, you can look for great things to come from Linda in the future.

The trailer for MALICE IN WONDERLAND – THE DOLLS MOVIE is now available on YouTube. But here it is. They are still “tweaking” a few things, but this is the basic trailer for the film. I think it will make you laugh.

An Outrageous Comedy With A Queer Little Twist!

When sexy, upper-crust society wife Alex (Keri Jo Chapman) falls for her old high school best friend, Grace (Teresa Garret) the snobby little town of Azalea Springs is up in arms.

Alongside the budding romance, indie filmmaker Kelli Herd brings us a hilarious comic portrait of small-town life and a firm trouncing of homophobic intolerance as the whole town confronts the zany rumor that their water supply is turning everyone gay!
