Hello Everyone,
My name is Alex Meridy US Navy veteran turned Actor/Filmmaker and a recent grad from The Los Angeles Film School. Looking forward to connect with my fellow creatives!
Can't wait to learn more and grow. I'm currently working on my 4th short film for festival season and looking for an Executive Producer.
Thank you and grateful to have found this community.
Hey, Alex Meridy! Great to meet you, and welcome to the community! Hey, congrats on your recent graduation, that's fantastic! What's up next for you? Are you producing or directing this next short?
As for an EP, does that mean you're looking for funding? If you'd like suggestions on how to finance your film, you can reach out on the Financing Lounge: https://www.stage32.com/lounge/fundraising Keep in mind that these lounges are like the VIP Filmmaker's Lounges at Film Festivals, so this is where you can meet the people doing the work, get advice on anything you're working on, and/or give back to those who may need advice. We're a very supportive and encouraging community! I think you'd also enjoy my intro blog post on how to engage with the Stage32 Community:

We have more than a few blogs about short films, actually. I always start with this one, about the Economics of Short Films: https://www.stage32.com/blog/The-Economics-of-Short-Films I also recently penned a blog that includes some great conversations in the lounges that I think would help you: https://www.stage32.com/blog/SocialSaturday-Mining-for-Gold-in-the-Stage...
Enjoy exploring the lounges, and don't forget to comment and respond to others’ posts, too! It's the best way to really connect!

Nice to meet you, Alex. Hope to hear more from you!
Thank you Kay!! Wow these are good resources and definitely will be on top it. YES, I'm currently Producing and Directing this next short INCONDITIONAL and we are on the Funding Phase, and looking for EP to help us reach our goal.
Matthew!! Likewise, and will do. I'm loving this community already, gives me good vibes every time I log in :)
If Adam Driver has taught us all anything, it's that ex-Armed Forces can make pretty decent artists. Looking forward to what you produce. Cheers!
