Julia Meltzer
pilot whisperer
About me
Julia started her career in entertainment as a development assistant for Modern Family star Ty Burrell’s production company, before selling her original multicam pilot YOURS, MINE & PAUL’S to 20th Century Fox Television in a competitive situation; it later sold to ABC with Burrell producing and Sarah Hyland attached to star. Her next pilot, MARRIED WITH FRIENDS (also a multicam), sold to CBS in the room; she then went on to adapt the Israeli TV series THE STYLIST into a feature film for Amazon Local Originals. She also developed an original single cam pilot, MORE KIDS THAN PARENTS, with Fanfare Productions, and wrote on the scripted audio series THE GOOD LIFE (Broadway Video and Audible). She currently has multiple original television projects in development with very cool production companies that she can't quite describe in a public bio yet :) During the 2023 writers’ strike, she staved off credit card debt (kind of) by teaching pilot writing classes through the Upright Citizens Brigade Training Center, and discovered that not only could she do, she could also teach :) She is now a sought-after screenwriting coach with an in-depth curriculum for three-act structure in half-hour pilots, and after observing her students’ challenges that could not be addressed by understanding how an effective pilot is structured, she developed a methodology for coaching screenwriters to overcome procrastination, writer’s block, and career stagnation. Her coaching has been described “a magical drug,” “a godsend,” “perceptive as hell” and “legit brilliant.” After struggling with her own writing practice after the birth of her son, she became passionate about parental wellness and empowering primary parents to share their creative voices with wide audiences, and created the groundbreaking New Parent Pilot Class, an incubator for parents of young children to create outstanding TV writing samples where their parenthood was seen as an asset, not a liability. This led to her training as a postpartum doula, lactation educator, matrescence educator, and parent coach. She is passionate about improving the wellbeing and general happiness levels of newborns and their parents.

Julia has taught improv workshops for screenwriters through the Humanitas Foundation and USC School of Cinematic Arts’ Middle Eastern Media Initiative.
