Ellexia started out in the industry as an apprentice editor, cutting episodes of the action-crime TV series "Black Scorpion" for producer Roger Corman's Concorde-New Horizons." She also worked as an assistant for Paramount Pictures ' Worldwide Feature Film Publicity. Prior to launching The Script Joint, Ellexia honed her story development skills under the tutelage of HBO Films' former head of the story department. Her first script doctoring work helped a client score over $15 million in funding from film investors. Since then, a handful of the scripts that she was hired to rewrite got financing in the $20 million and $50 million range.
