Independent Writers' Caucus
Brandon Walter
Brandon Walter writes high-concept, four-quadrant comedies rooted in the spirit of ’90s blockbusters. He honed his comedic voice doing improv at UCB, drawing on outsider experiences growing up as a big-brained computer nerd in Indiana to tell stories about underdogs in outrageous situations. A perspective he brings to *GONE DOGGY GONE*, an award-winning feature he co-wrote and directed with screenwriting partner Kasi Brown.
Together they write bold, laugh-out-loud comedies that spotlight diverse human experiences blown up into popcorn-ready worlds—throwbacks to when movies felt bigger, brighter, and just plain fun.
His work has been recognized in top competitions, including finalist for the PAGE Awards, Final Draft Big Break, and CineStory, and semifinalist at the Austin Film Festival. He was recently selected to the Pre-Rainbow Pages Mentorship Program and honored to make the Grey List (Top forty over 40).
