What This Means for Your Career

If you're selected for this opportunity, you're not just winning a contest. You're joining a development pipeline with a proven track record of commercial success. You're getting the kind of attention that can move a career into overdrive.

But even if you're not selected, your participation in this process demonstrates the kind of strategic thinking that separates professional writers from hobbyists. You're positioning yourself within a community that attracts this level of industry attention.

And that's not all. These additional judges will be reading all top 10 loglines and meeting with finalists. Those jurors include:

• Stacia Crawford, Director @ Lifetime, CMT, Hallmark, Netflix (THE SECRET LIFE OF AMY BENSEN, DEAD SILENT)
• Amrita Kalsi, Creative Executive (FOUR GOOD DAYS, INVINCIBLE, THE CW'S SIGHT UNSEEN)
• Kendall Fletcher, Producer (DIDI, ALL THAT WE LOVE)

And if you select the optional add-on mentorship opportunity or you're a Top 10 finalist, you could win a mentorship with THREE Literary Managers, including Dallaslyn Lamb of King Lamb Entertainment, Lameese Hassen of Marathon Management, or Tessa Shaffer of Corvisiero Literary Agency.

These are actionable opportunities to make meaningful connections in this industry!

The Bottom Line: Opportunity Meets Preparation

Neighborhood Watch's Sean Farley didn't know his Stage 32 connection would lead to a theatrical release starring Jack Quaid. James Papa didn't predict his Stage 32 relationship would result in No Address with Billy Baldwin. Richard Zelniker couldn't have thought that 3 years after his contest win, he'd be linking back up with an Executive Producer, who Stage 32 set him up on a general meeting with after winning a contest, to direct Vortex.

Success in this industry often comes from positioning yourself in the right place when opportunity strikes. Stage 32 has created an ecosystem where fresh voices can thrive. Stage 32 will be a champion for your script - once you’re part of our community, we make sure you rise to the top!
