Introduce Yourself : Please get in touch by Dorothy A. Atabong

Hey Dorothy, this is Beth from the Stage 32 team. I just wanted to let you know I moved your post from Producing to Introduce Yourself, as it fits much better there. Let me know if you have any questions, and all the best to you!

Thank you Beth

Hi Dorothy, thank you for adding me to your network! I am also looking to tell such stories! I enjoyed the trailer and would be interested in discussing a collaboration.

Hi, my name is Francesco Tresca, I am a musician and soundtracks composer/sound designer from Italy, but thanks to internet the distance is not a problem (I work with people all around the world). Here you can listen to some of my works, I use them only to promote my job, then of course I create new music for every new project. www.francescotresca.com/soundtracks I would love to work together with you on this project. Make me know what do you think about it. Meanwhile have a nice day. Francesco.

Hello Ms Dorothy. Its a pleasure to meet you. I will be in contact with you in the near future. In the meantime, I wish you much success and inspiration. Harry

Hi, I sent you a message, thanks.

Hey, Dorothy. thanks for the Add. Unfortunately, I'm not sure if I have anything that would fit what you're looking for. I tend towards a more "Twilight Zone" type of sensibility.

Thank you Gene, will get in touch.

Thank you Francesco

Will do Jeff

Great trailer, Dorothy. I just won a Cynosure Screenwriting Awards prize for diversity and am in the process of optioning that script to a small producer in Texas. Had a wonderful meeting today here in Los Angeles with a producer who's hiring me to write a treatment toward a possible screenplay based on a true story from African-American history. So we''re on the same page!

Thank you Lela. Love your headshots

Pleasure to meet you too, Harry. Thank you for your kinds words.

Thank you Richard. Kudos to you and for including diversity in your work. Today's film and TV and even theatre do not reflect the diversity around us. Toronto is the most diversified city in the world and I believe NYC follows yet I can count the number of people of color in a production if any. There are so many stories yet to be told. Trickling back from 2015 all the way to the rich kingdoms and empires of Africa. So many stories... so little time.

Elaine thank you for connecting. I love strong female heroines and I also love thrillers and especially Sci-fi.

Great introduction! I'm becoming interested in writing and eventually developing movies of the "Sword and Soul" genre, or African inspired fantasy. Inspired by what I've read online of Charles Saunders, who also lives in Canada. You are someone I would definitely like to network with!

Nice to meet you, Jeremy. I read your loglines and love the stories you are wanting to tell. Charles Saunders.. interesting. There was a taste of such shot here in Toronto this past summer. 'Brown Girl in The Ring' Definitely first of its kind and I am sure will not be the last. This is a genre definitely untouched by the screen.

Dorothy, I have a graphic novel version of a SciFi Horror project I'm working on that features a very strong Black Female lead. I'll send you a copy once it's done if you'd like.

Ahem, Richard, I'm not a small producer, I'm a young producer, or an up and coming producer. Besides, it's not the size of the producer that counts, it's how you use him. :-D As you may have gathered, Dorothy, I am the aforementioned producer Richard was referring to, and if you need an endorsement to work with Richard, I can vouch for him being an insanely talented writer.

Terribly sorry, David. I will never call you small again. And thanks for the endorsement!

Thanks for connecting David. What kind of genres or stories do you like to produce?

Thank you Elaine.
