Taking it to the Streets

Lab: Write Your Feature Screenplay in 12

Posted 11 years ago by Stage 32 Staff - Julie

Part of what makes our Stage 32 network so inspiring is the overwhelming sense of community. There are any number of metrics that we can point at to support this claim - a record number of threads and posts almost daily, for example - but one that truly stands out is the increase in Stage 32 Meetups occurring across the globe.

Below are some pictures of recent Stage 32 Meetups where members of this terrific community took their networking to the streets. We're happy and proud to report that many new projects have been launched and jobs secured from these meetings.

Remember, you can host a Stage 32 Meetup in your city (or anywhere in the world should you find yourself traveling) by posting in the Stage 32 Meetup section of the Lounge. All we ask is that you check the section before posting to see if there is already a Meetup posted in your area.

Our thanks to all who, in the true spirit of collaboration, took the time to form and organize these Stage 32 Meetups. And, of course, our applause to all those who attended. As we like to say around here, learning your craft is only half the job. Networking completes the circle!
