From a young age, Alyssa Gonzalez was fascinated by the idea of writing for films. So when four social media influencers turned filmmakers — Marcus Johns, Christian Del Grosso, Darrick Landreneau and Jesse Dueck — posted a casting call seeking 100 writers, Gonzalez answered.

Gonzalez, who was born and raised in Madera, is a senior at California State University, Fresno, majoring in English.

She discovered the opportunity while scrolling Instagram and came across a post from Johns, who was recruiting people with any level of writing experience to apply to write a page for a collaborative film project.
