Inspiring & Uplifting Movies Are In Demand- Reps Are On The Hunt!

It's hard to ignore the elephant in the room: the country is feeling more divided than ever, and anyone watching the news or reading social media is getting conflicting points of view. No one can seem to agree on anything.
During these turbulent times, buyers are trying to avoid polarizing content and instead are looking for feel-good content that will unite and please…at the risk of making sugar-coated, cookie-cutter projects that should, on paper, please everyone. But is there such content? Or will buyers just focus on specific niches and further segment their audiences based on their views?
According to Literary Manager and long-time Stage 32 executive Eileen Cope, writers, creators, and filmmakers have the power to unite and make content that will change the narrative. Buyers and producers are taking notice, with more and more studios looking for feel-good projects, including faith-based material.

Recently In The Stage 32 Writer's Room
Last week, we had the pleasure of welcoming producer Regina Lee to our Writers' Room webcast. As a long-time 20th Century and Universal exec, Regina saw the business from all facets. Now she's producing and consulting, seeing firsthand how the market is shifting. After spending two hours educating Writers’ Room members about the development process and how to implement studio notes, she stressed the importance of finding a mentor to navigate the market. I personally really connected with that point and continue to rely on my mentors. It was inspiring to see how much passion Regina has for the business and how much she cares about the craft and writers.
