AndrEw JOUSTRA
Writer & Producer
Who Dat?
Andrew is a writer based in Los Angeles, CA. Most recently he was the script & recording coordinator for Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem at Nickelodeon Animation (which still feels unreal to say and was, in fact, the best gig ever).
​
His scripts have placed in numerous screenwriting competitions and earned him a spot on Coverfly’s Red List for Animated Television in 2023 and 2022. He is repped by Kelly Dyksterhouse at The Tobias Literary Agency.
​
Andrew mainly grew up in Florida, but tells everyone he's from Buffalo since he was born there and it doesn't have a reputation for swamp people or bath salts.
​
Andrew enjoys going to theme parks, comic conventions, watching movies, and sitting quietly.
Andrew's animated pilot script Craters was selected as a quarterfinalist in the 2023 Creative Screenwriting Pilot Competition, the 2021 ScreenCraft Sci-Fi & Fantasy competition and the 2021 Creative Screenwriting Animation Screenplay Competition.
He's currently adapting it into a pixel-art graphic novel and hopes to turn it into an animated series someday.
Andrew's pilot script Pathfinders (Temple of the Tiki) was a quarterfinalist in the 2023 Script2Comic Contest and the 2022 ScreenCraft Animation Competition.
