This Week's Pitch Sessions: Heavy Hitters Ready for Your Projects

Get ready for an incredible lineup of industry powerhouses actively seeking new material this week.

Gaye Hirsch (most recently head of development at CW) kicks things off Wednesday and has only a few spots left for her Wednesday session! The former EVP of Development at The CW Network is opening her own production company, is actively looking for materials and brings decades of network-level expertise to your pitch.

Katy Saindon follows at 2:30 PM: she's the executive who's worked across Warner Bros, Disney, Universal, TriStar, and Lionsgate, bringing serious studio connections to the table.

Friday brings a triple threat of opportunities: Henry Hereford starts the morning at 9:00 AM, followed by Julia Verdin from Rough Diamond Productions & Management at 11:30 AM, a producer-manager hybrid who can both develop and represent your work. The day wraps with Allen Eckhouse from Logical Talent Management at 2:00 PM, offering direct representation pathways.

Saturday delivers the weekend power punch with George Salinas from Bridge Works Entertainment at 9:00 AM (yes, the company working with Netflix on international series), Alexandra Hensley from Portobello Electric at 11:30 AM, and Jim Young from Animus Films closing out at 2:00 PM.

This is the kind of executive access that changes careers: eight industry veterans with active deal-making power, all in one week. And if you're unsure who to meet with, please email us at success@stage32.com for help!
