==Background==
Alex Tse, a Chinese American, was born in 1976 to his father, a banker, and his mother, a teacher. He grew up in Richmond District in San Francisco. He went to Alamo Elementary School, Presidio Middle School, and Lowell High School in the area. When Tse was growing up, his parents were movie fans, and he was incidentally exposed to movies not appropriate for his age like ''Heavy Metal'', ''Prom Night'', and ''Altered States''.〔 His father's favorite film was ''The Godfather'', and the family would watch two films every Christmas, such as ''To Live and Die in L.A.''.〔
Tse attended Emerson College in Boston.〔 When Tse was a first-year student at Emerson, he explored journalism as a career by having a radio show and realized that it was not his aspiration. He saw ''Pulp Fiction'' and was inspired by the film to pursue a screenwriting career. He described ''Pulp Fiction''s influence on him:
I had never seen anything like it, in terms of narrative structure, characters, the character's point of view, all the pop culture references and humor. It seemed like it was coming from my own sensibility... though the world of ''Pulp Fiction'' is so fantastic and obviously not my world, it felt like these were characters who were speaking from the perspective of people in your world. And I don't know that a movie has done that since.〔
After Tse graduated from college,〔 he moved to Los Angeles in December 1998 to pursue a writing career. He worked for under three years producing rap videos and working part-time jobs for Miramax Films and Walt Disney Pictures.〔 One of his first productions was the music video for the single "You Never Knew" from the album ''3rd Eye Vision'' by Hieroglyphics, and the video eventually aired on ''Yo! MTV Raps''. His work attracted the attention of other independent rappers, for whom he also produced videos. He was encouraged to begin temping and found temp work at Disney, particularly under then-president Peter Schneider. Tse also learned more about screenwriting by reading scripts, with two noteworthy examples being the onomatopoeia in James Mangold's script for ''Heavy'' and the sarcasm in the narrative for ''Man on the Moon''.〔
