Melody is currently developing a sci fi horror TV pilot in the Sundance Episodic Lab's new Idea Lab, and has been named one of the Top 25 Screenwriters to Watch in 2021 by the International Screenwriters Association. She was a 2019 HBO Access Writing Fellow and a winner of a Grand Jury Prize for Best Screenplay at the Urbanworld Film Festival. Melody has been a Fellow at several labs, including Shudder Labs, Stowe Story Labs (winner of the Tangerine Entertainment Fellowship) and NY Stage & Film.

Enid currently lives in Mexico city and has his Master's in Artistic Production at the Autonomous University (MaPA) of the State of Morelos, Mexico. His graphic work mostly explores the idea of the future, presenting us with the perception of a fore-coming age of ruins, the morning after the great disaster: the end of humanity as we know it. In this obsession to inquire about cataclysm, Enid offers us visions of a conglomerate world, a melting pot of cultures located on a planet in misery; his drawings describe a Third World futurism. Before becoming a full artist, developing his skills as penciller and inker, Enid worked as a colorist for Delcourt. In 2018, he finished his first graphic novel as an author, Someday Comes Paradise, commissioned by an L.A. private studio. Currently he is working for Delcourt, Humanoids, and Sergio Bonelli publishing house in Italy.
