Brenda believes, for her, it is very important to write about what you know. Hence the majority of her scripts are largely autobiographical.
“Fortune Cookies” – a feature length script tells the story of a Chinese family who run a takeaway and are obsessed with the popular television gameshow “Family Fortunes”. This script was previously optioned with Forest Whitaker’s production company in L.A.
“Happy Shopping” is a film about life in the weird and wonderful of shopping television.
“Stalked” is a comedy about a geeky Chinese girl who is obsessed with her favourite popstar.
Brenda is also co-writing a sitcom “Half Eaten Peaches” which tells the story of a rather unconventional flatshare.
Brenda is very keen to pursue a career as a Writer/Director. She directed ‘Mah Jong’, a short film about Chinese one upmanship with some high acclaimed Chinese actors. She plans to self fund and shoot “Fortune Cookies” next year
