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:

• Breanne Washington, Producer & Dev Exec (BLOCKBUSTER, THE UPSHAWS, THE VINCE STAPLES SHOW)
• And more to come!

And if you select the optional add-on mentorship opportunity or you're a Top 10 finalist, you could win a mentorship with TWO top execs, including Head of Studio at HartBeat Productions Luke Kelly-Clyne (Kevin Hart's Production Company) or Manager Tom Ratiner (works with Warner, Paramount, BBC, Dreamworks)

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

The Bottom Line: Opportunity Meets Preparation

SNL writers Maxwell Gay & Tucker Flodman didn't expect their Stage 32 connections to take them to 30 Rock. Neighborhood Watch's Sean Farley didn't know his Stage 32 connection would lead to a theatrical release starring Jack Quaid & Jeffrey Dean Morgan. Writer James Papa didn't predict his Stage 32 relationship would result in No Address with Billy Baldwin. Just like 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 meeting with after winning, 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!
