From 2014-2015, the original 'Monster Island' short film, written and directed by Sean, played in festivals including Toronto After Dark, the Atlantic Film Festival, and the Academy Award-qualifying Rio de Janeiro Int'l Film Festival. The short received critical reviews from noted industry people, including producer Michael C. Gross (Ghostbusters, Kindergarten Cop), Oscar-winning editor Bob Murawski (The Hurt Locker, Spider-Man, Army of Darkness), screenwriter Larry Karaszewski (The People vs. Larry Flynt, Ed Wood, Dolemite is My Name) as well as many more.
In November 2014, a Ghostbusters sequel spec script written by Sean, titled 'Ghostbusters, Inc.', went viral after being erroneously reported as a genuine Sony Pictures draft. Online reviews of the screenplay were overwhelmingly positive and discussion of the material spread far and wide. He went on to receive coverage in national publications such as 'The Globe and Mail', as well as CBC news, CBC Mainstreet and online publications including Bloody-Disgusting, JoBlo, IMDb and more.
Competitively, Sean's scripts have placed in the finals/semi-finals for several major competitions, including the Final Draft Big Break Screenwriting Contest, Telefilm's 'Micro-Budget Financing Program', the Austin Film Festival Screenplay Competition, The Harold Greenberg Fund, and others. -- Having worked as a writer-for-hire for feature scripts for prod companies, he also spent time in the writer's room for Season 2 of the CBC legal drama series, 'Diggstown'.
