Introduce Yourself : Hello to all the new members - and to the veterans. by Maureen Mahon

Hello to all the new members - and to the veterans.

I've been on Stage 32 for about 8 months now and I think it's the greatest thing since sliced bread (not that I don't enjoy unsliced bread). If you're new here and not sure about whether you're in the right place or not, you are. I've made many great connections here in the short time I've been on the platform, and have even gotten paid work from it. There are people here from all over the world, some are just starting out or dabbling in the entertainment business and some are very experienced, successful professionals. If you haven't been to one of the meetups, you must go to one! They're lots of fun and great networking.

That's all! Just wanted to say hi. I'm loving the rain today and hoping everyone is safe.

Emily J

Hi Maureen Mahon! So glad you're part of our community, we think you're pretty great too :)

Ty Strange

Hi again, Maureen Mahon! Hopefully your area won't reach flood levels. I, too, enjoy both sliced and unsliced bread!

Maureen Mahon

Awww...thanks, Emily! :-)

Maureen Mahon

Ty, so far, so good with the rains. I actually love rain. Just hunkering down and enjoying a lazy day.

Niki H

Hi Maureen, Happy IYW! The connections and the people here are the best.

Maurice Vaughan

Have you seen that old Nickelodeon cartoon "The Angry Beavers," Maureen Mahon? There was an episode where one of the beavers said something about something being the greatest thing since sliced bread and everyone got mad. Haha

Geoff Hall

What projects are you working on right now that you're excited about?

Maureen Mahon

Doing well, Geoff, thanks! How are you doing?

Maureen Mahon

Maurice, I have not seen that. But that's the thing about Beavers, you just never know what kinds of things will anger them. ;-)

Maurice Vaughan

Do beavers really get angry, Maureen Mahon?

Maureen Mahon

I have no idea, Maurice Vaughan.

Maurice Vaughan

Haha Maureen Mahon. I looked it up. This site says beavers, for the most part, aren't aggressive animals (https://animals.mom.com/beavers-aggressive-10264.html).

David Abrookin

Glad you're loving Stage 32, Maureen Mahon! I joined the team back in March and I'm loving it too

Geoff Hall

Maureen Mahon Hi Maureen, it’s been hectic and full-on with family (Mum aged 93) and equally energy-filled with my new project, which I’m beginning to crowdsource for, as well as revising the pilot script. Thanks for asking…

Robin Gregory

Hey Maureen Mahon , Congratulations on your projects and awards! So excited to see your work in animal activism supported and produced.

Maureen Mahon

Geoff, good luck with your crowdsourcing. Please keep us informed. I want to produce a short film as a proof-of-concept for my series, and was thinking about crowdfunding. Is that the same thing? (Crowdsourcing/crowdfunding?)

Maureen Mahon

Thank you, Robin Gregory. I've produced quite a few live fundraisers for rescue organizations, including red-carpet screenings. It's a lot of work. During COVID we decided to do a virtual concert, which turned out to be a really great alternative. Since it was all taped, this is the first time I actually have footage of the entire event. We were also able to get some great celebrity involvement because they were all stuck at home, too. :-) Are you involved with animal welfare?

Sam Mannetti

So glad to hear you're having a great experience Maureen!
