Sina Bowyer is an English-Danish London-based screenwriter, producer and founder of Red Rug Productions. She completed an MA in Screenwriting at Royal Holloway and trained with Hollywood coach/producer Hal Croasmun via the Screenwriting ProSeries in LA, focusing on high-concept script writing and marketing. Sina wrote and produced the eco-thriller Crude, which won Best Foreign Featurette at Idyllwild and screened or at 15 international festivals. Sina's spy thriller White Royal was selected for Production Value in Amsterdam, which led to  paid writing gigs. She has worked on music videos, script supervision and pitch development for TV. Sina is also trained in hypnotherapy, which infuses the  psychology of story through the power of myth, messaging, archetypes,  and the hero’s journey.
