ABOUT ME
Meet Casey Schreiner
I am a professional writer and producer with 17 years of experience in scripted and live television, web, print, and live events. I have worked both solo and managing teams of writers and producers -- on projects that have months of lead time and on live shows with turnarounds of only a few hours.
​
I have developed projects from scratch, taken over projects developed by others, and written for comedy, non-fiction, historical / documentary, outdoor advocacy, and public-facing corporate presentations. I've written for award-winning actors and people who have never been on a stage or in front of a camera before. And I've created and managed one of the web's leading outdoor brands since 2006.
​
I split time between Los Angeles and Portland, OR. I love dogs and donuts.
​
What can I help you with?

PAST WORK

NICKELODEON
Supervising Producer
"Unfiltered"
I help manage a small team of writer-producers for Nickelodeon's "Unfiltered," a kids game show produced and shot entirely remotely. I pitched and developed games and clues for a variety of celebrities, from Tyra Banks and Shaun White to H.E.R. The show is hosted by comedian Jay Pharaoh and is one of the top-rated shows on all networks for its age bracket.

Head Writer
"Talk Show the Game Show"
Comedian Guy Branum (Chelsea Lately, The Mindy Project) and I performed and developed the live show for several years before Push-It Productions (Wanda Sykes, Page Hurwitz) produced two seasons for TruTV. I was Lead Judge (on-camera) for both seasons and Head Writer for the second season.

"UbiE3 Press Event"
I am the sole writer for this keystone corporate event, working closely with producers from the agency Touch Worldwide to produce a live 90 minute stage and broadcast production for Ubisoft, one of the world's largest and most respected video game publishers.

G4 TV
Head Writer
"Attack of the Show"
I worked on nearly every aspect of G4's flagship daily, live variety program, rising from an Associate Producer to Head Writer. I was in charge of managing a team of four writers to create a 12-minute opening comedy segment and sketches, often day-of with only a few hours to prepare. I worked closely with the Executive Producers and Segment Producers to ensure consistent tone and voice on this groundbreaking show about internet / nerd culture. We won many awards, including Tellys, Webbys, and a Cable Ace Award.

"TakePart Live"
I helped develop Participant Media's first live, daily news and entertainment show for their television network pivot from concept to pilot. I helped audition and chose hosts, and staffed the show's team of writers and producers. I also ran daily show meetings, supervised the research-heavy script, and wrote daily segments for the show.
