[[ the PARCEL VIEW ]]


JT Vaughn		Showrunner/Executive Producer Vaughn started out in the Virtual Series world in mid-2005 on MZP-TV, and was instantly amazed by the wealth of talent that went into creating the Buffy and Angel (Lee A. Chrimes et al.) spin-off series. His first adventure into VS was working as a graphic artist on Homeostasis (Jordan Hyman), which then lead to working on graphics for Threadbare and Guardians (JJ Estes). Soon after, JT was hired to work on The DSR (Anthony J. Black) to do graphics, and a friendship was born. It wasn't long after, early 2006, that JT finally overcame his self doubt and started dabbling in screenwriting, an interest that he had been pursuing and researching for over a year. Tony liked his Alias sample, and this soon turned into a writing spot for the DSR, which ended in JT producing his first ever aired script plus a co-write spot for a big 2 part episode. Several pilots later, Vaughn then struck gold with the idea for Cult Hero, which to his surprise seemed to go down well on MZP-TV. A series pickup followed, and JT set to work producing the show's 12 episode Season One. A fourteen episode Season Two followed in 2008, before Vaughn eventually fell out of love with the project and listed it as "completed". As of 2009, JT has now risen up the ranks to an Admin on MZP, while entering his script for The Parcel View into the September 2009 pilot season.


Sarah-Jane Sheppard		Executive Producer Sarah-Jane stumbled across MZP in 2005 and was thrilled to find a place where her love of scriptwriting was shared and encouraged. Having been a fan of such virtual series as Seers and Ravenshill, Sarah-Jane wanted to try her hand at showrunning and pitched The Company. Despite some bumps along the way, The Company has made it through two seasons (35 episodes) and Sarah-Jane and her staff are currently working on season three. Early 2007 saw the release of her pilot for The Parcel View. Although it was written mostly as a test for herself - to see whether she was able to pull off something a hell of a lot darker than The Company, it was met with great support from the community and pushed into production. Sadly, a growing feeling that she wasn't truly committed to this new project meant that The Parcel View was finished before it ever really got off the ground. Now, in 2009, enter JT Vaughn and his awesome brain... Sarah-Jane hopes to impress her new boss with her fabulous episode ideas (Look out for "Freya and the Beanstalk" and "Freya Goes to Disneyland") whilst also putting the skills she's learnt at MZP-TV into good use in a variety of other script projects.


Chris Wilson		Producer/Writer Chris has been part of the Virtual Series scene long before it was cool, turning up on EpiGuide in 2004 as a hardcore follower of eventual MZP-TV series Ravenshill. He joined MZP-TV in 2005 with the desire of becoming a showrunner, an objective he would've achieved by now if he weren't so lazy. His contributions to MZP-TV so far have only been an episode of Natasha Tyreen and a couple of pilots. However, Chris is taking the approach of using the new decade to start afresh. He hopes writing for The Parcel View will be the launch-pad for a prolific career with MZP-TV. If that fails, at least he has an excuse to incessantly exchange The Simpsons and Archer quotes with Vaughn. "Ah, my eye! I'm not supposed to get pudding in it!"


Tegan G Blair		Freelance Writer Making her MZP-TV debut with The Parcel View, Tegan G Blair(*) began her career in Fanfiction, developing her love and skill for strong character writing and drama. She remains a lover of prose, with several short stories and even a few novels under her belt (all unpublished... for now). She is also a three year running NaNoWriMo veteran. It was while seeking fanfic in other genres that a young Tegan found MZP-TV, where she lurked on and off for a couple of years before finally working up the courage to fill out the application form and get an account. She set about involving herself in the community, chatting with the masters, improving her skill, and posting extracts of her own work for feedback. It was after viewing such an extract that JT Vaughn invited her onto The Parcel View as a Freelance Writer (A brave move considering that she was mostly tried and untested in the field), with a script of her very own to play with. She hopes that it will be the first step into a glittering career with MZP-TV. (*Contrary to popular belief, her pseudonym has nothing to do with Doctor Who)
