About me
RAQUEL CEDAR is a family comedy writer with a passion for the Kid Space. As the daughter of a character actor who read bedtime stories like he was at a call back for Dark Crystal, Cedar fell in love with storytelling and building out-of-this-world sets and characters at a young age. Determined to become a filmmaker, Cedar used her Bat Mitzvah money to buy a Hi8 camcorder and hasn’t stopped telling heartfelt authentic stories since. She received her BFA in writing and directing at NYU Tisch School of the Arts then spent the next ten years working as a union prop assistant on the sets of Boardwalk Empire, West Side Story, and The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, to name a few. Cedar’s professional art department experience has made her a distinctly visual and imaginative storyteller. She received screenwriting accolades as a top 3 finalist in the 2021 Cinestory Foundation TV Fellowship Competition for her live-action preschool+ script, Madame Pellegrino, and her half hour comedy, Edith from Brighton Beach was a semi-finalist in the 2020 Shore Scripts TV Pilot Contest and the 2021 Screencraft TV Pilot Script Competition. When she is not writing or working on set, this California native loves swimming at the beach and bird watching.Referees:

The pandemic has given me the rare opportunity to pursue my passion for animation and the Kid Space and transition into working for the writing department. My professional art department experiences have taught me invaluable techniques and strategies that would be extremely useful to the writing staff during production.

- Transcribing, proofreading, organizing, and distributing detailed notes from department meetings.
- Proficient in Final Draft, Office 365, Adobe Suite, and Google Suite.
- Answering phones, coordinating schedules, deliveries, and pick-ups.
- Maintain documents and organize breakdowns.
- Quick problem solving, multitasking, and effective time management.
- Understanding of production roles, protocols, and procedures.
- Effectively collaborating and communicating with all departments.
