Introduce Yourself

Thank you very much for your encouragement Sydney S . I’m so happy you like my logline. And yes—the story hides a huge narrative that unfolds simultaneously across three major locations: Earth, planet Oziross, and the ISS.

I’m working on it, and one day it will come to life.

Sydney S Awesome! Nothing is cheesy about a little disco magic. I'm working on my final tweaks on my script Elimination Strain that was accepted into the Austin Film Festival where I met the awesome team from Stage 32. I thought I'd have time to do my tweaks to my script but with Halloween and Thanksgiving so close together it's been hard so this week I'm setting time aside.

Hi Seb,

Thank you so much, that’s so kind of you to say! It’s been lovely having the chance to connect and get to know you more!

I really love to photograph the surf and a lot of nature, the sun, the moon, butterflies, flowers, and different earth elements. I love bright colors but also a B & W moment...I also enjoy experimenting with double exposure, and I like to photograph friends and family, as well as some music. Living on the California coast, I definitely end up capturing a lot of my daily life at the beach, it’s such an inspiring place to live and create. I am so grateful!

It’s amazing you did dance and fashion photography! That must have been such a fun and dynamic experience. Do you still photograph some? Thank you for all you do for the Stage 32 community, we're lucky to have you as an education moderator :)

Warmly,

Sydney

Hi Christopher!!

That’s so exciting, congratulations on Elimination Strain being accepted into the Austin Film Festival! That’s such an amazing achievement, and it must have been incredible connecting with the Stage 32 team there. I was jealous i wasn't there :)

I totally get how busy things can get with Halloween and Thanksgiving right around the corner. It’s great that you’re setting aside time this week to focus on your final tweaks, your script is lucky to have such dedicated attention!

Wishing you smooth editing and lots of inspiration as you wrap it up. Can’t wait to hear how it all comes together! Have a great week!

Warmly,

Sydney

Sydney S that all sounds awesome - I get this image of you literally absorbing everything around you and channeling it into these magical fragments of art. Thank you for creating :)

I don't photograph as much but I'm aiming to do a whole bunch of 'image creation' pretty soon with film ;)

And thank you for compliment & for the opportunity to participate in that way with our colleagues here on the platform.

I subscribed to your Spotify, Andy Alston. Looking forward to listening to more of your music!

Spotify is where to put stuff, but it is nearly criminal as there is no money from it

hi

You could post your reel and videos on your profile if you have any, Andy Alston. You can add them by moving your mouse over "Profile" on the bar near the top of Stage 32's home page and click "Video/Audio." You can also post them by moving your mouse over "Browse" on the same bar and clicking "Video."

Ok ta will try

Thank you, Haley Mary ! I really appreciate you reaching out with such kind words!

Thanks Scott Olsen ! I'll message you.

Scott Olsen Thank you! Love a Blankman shout out.

This sounds as if it would make a great feature: "based on my real-life experience of running a local movie theater and saving it from permanent closure"

Thank you Michael Thorn , I've spent a long time finding the right angle on writing about that time in my life, so it really goes a long way whenever someone shows an interest!

Hi, Michael Cookson. Welcome to the community. Stage 32 has a blog that'll help you navigate the platform and connect with creatives and industry professionals all over the world. www.stage32.com/blog/how-to-successfully-navigate-the-stage-32-platform-...

Stage 32 is having a free Community Open House on November 25th. It'll also help you navigate Stage 32 and connect with creatives and industry pros. It's a fully interactive event where the community gets to guide the discussion. You can sign up here: www.stage32.com/education/products/stage-32-s-november-community-open-ho...

I suggest adding a profile picture of yourself and a detailed bio to your profile. People will feel more comfortable networking and collaborating with you if they know what you look like. And if you have a picture, your profile will show up when someone searches for you. A detailed bio will help you build relationships/network on here. You could add things to your bio like why you became a writer, your accomplishments, your goals, and what movies and shows you like.

You can upload a picture by clicking the gear symbol in the top right-hand corner and selecting “Edit profile” in the drop-down menu, then clicking the red button underneath your location and choosing "Update profile picture."

You can edit your bio by clicking the gear symbol in the top right-hand corner of Stage 32, then selecting “Edit profile” in the drop-down menu, then clicking the red button underneath your location and choosing "Edit Bio & Goals."

The text of your post shows up in the Stage 32 phone app but not the web browser. I'm guessing you wrote the post in the app, so you might need to edit the post in a web browser. That way, the post will show up for members who get on Stage 32 with a browser. You can edit your post by clicking the downward arrow to the right of your name, selecting "Edit Post," and reposting the text.

What do you write? Screenplays, books, short stories, etc.

Thank you very much. I will definitely take your advice.

You're welcome, Madina Abramova. Stage 32 also has a blog for up-and-coming screenwriters: www.stage32.com/blog/the-questions-up-and-coming-screenwriters-need-to-a...

That sounds intriguing Madina Abramova I would love to hear more about it.

I will be happy to tell you and answer any questions.

Hello Curtis Graham Welcome to Stage 32! You've made an excellent choice to advance and expand your knowledge and access entertainment professionals. Best of luck in your endeavors!

Thanks Maurice and Jack! And Doug, I would love to get DC Elseworlds' interest. I just have the tracks/outline right now, but I could craft a rough-draft version of a script pretty quickly. Thanks again.

You're welcome, Curtis Graham. Have a great rest of the weekend!

Same, Curtis Graham. I’ve got a spec Ted Kord (my favorite!) comics story I’m working on. If you want a fresh pair of eyes on your GL story, I’ll be happy to take a look at it.

Those sound really cool, Curtis Graham

You're welcome, Kim Monroe. You could post your scripts on your profile. Producers search profiles for projects. That and networking are how I sold four short scripts to a producer. Click the gear symbol in the top right-hand corner and select “Edit profile” in the drop-down menu. Scroll down to “Loglines” and click “Add/edit loglines” to the right of “Loglines.” You can also post your scripts on your profile this way: www.stage32.com/loglines (near the top where it says “Add a Logline”)

Thank you all for your support.

You're welcome, Ernest Pick. Are you working on any other scripts?

Best wishes !

LUCK!

Keeping everything crossed for you, Ernest Pick
