About
A storyteller at the intersection of screen, business, and belief.
Jeremiah Unom Joshua is a Nigerian screenwriter, documentary writer, and creative director whose work spans feature films, reality television, commercial filmmaking, and music videos. His writing is character-first: grounded in the specific textures of Nigerian life while reaching for universal emotional resonance.
He is the architect behind The Big Break Moment Africa - one of Nigeria's most-watched reality competition formats, and the screenwriter of six produced feature films across drama, thriller, and faith-based genres. Beyond the page, he is a serial entrepreneur, having co-founded LinqnetAI, SwiftPay, Led Studios, and the Global Reputation Forum.
His work is rooted in the conviction that African stories deserve world-class execution, and that the gap between a great idea and a great film is closed through craft, discipline, and relentless revision.

My Writing Process
Bringing Your Story to Life, Step by Step
Book a Discovery Session
We begin with a focused 45-minute conversation. You share your vision, your audience, and your deadline. I share what I need to bring it to life, and whether this project is the right fit.
Research & Story Development
Before a word of script is written, I go deep. Industry research, character profiling, thematic mapping. The goal is to arrive at the page with total clarity about what the story needs to do.
Script Writing
The draft phase. I write in dedicated blocks, with daily progress updates for longer projects. No disappearing acts, you know where the work stands at every stage.
Review & Revisions
You read, respond, and request. I revise with precision, not defensiveness. Every note is an opportunity to make the script stronger. Two rounds of revisions are included in every engagement.
Final Delivery
You receive a fully formatted, production-ready script, in the correct industry format for your medium. With notes on casting, tone, and production considerations where relevant.
