Randle Lynne Forcinel: Actor, filmmaker and makeup artist in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Only two photos? :-(

I just finished my imdb profile. I mean theres hardly anything on there to speak of except some headshot, but wow. I mean for me personally, that is a triumph within its self. Yay! http://www.imdb.com/name/nm7500238/ Check it out if you want. Or don't. Its not much, but its my start :)

I am still in what I would consider beginning stages of two main idea's one is a feature and the other a pilot. I have done some reading, and also invested in an online course through the writers program with ucla extension. I felt like it was helpful, and I would be willing to take more courses. But do I need it? Do I need to do extensive courses and studying or can I just dive in? I feel like theres tons of people who have gone about it in different ways. I feel like I have a few really great ideas and I would hate to see them ruined by poor execution of writing. I guess I am also wondering, what was the strategy you found for staying motivated to write daily? To really push yourself to finish. My favorite quote is that the 'most successful screenwriters are the ones who actually finish a screenplay' thanks guys!

I am thinking of starting a site/group where you can get your script read and notes supplied for free as long as you are willing to do the same for others. Am I wasting my time or is it worth my effort to get it started? What is everyone's opinion? Thanks in advance.

Hello! This is my first time organizing a Stage get together. I'm hoping to get to meet some of you and network in Amsterdam on Saturday 11 July. More details ... https://www.stage32.com/meetups/235 Hope to see you there!

Hey Stage 32 Fam! I am Randle. I am an obsessive crazed lunatic about film and television. You know what I love? I love the magic of it. It just transports you to another world. Some of my best friends in the world were living on my tv screen. For me, just being apart of the process is dream come true enough for me. I just love the creative energy that comes from working with likeminded people who love making awesome movies and tv. Its such a fun atmosphere and I just absolutely feel the happiest when I am on set. I guess a little about me; I am a California native, but consider myself a citizen of the world. I travel often and lived in Germany as well as many places in the United States. I love traveling. Experiencing new cultures, food and language is just unparalleled to anything else. I think that when you travel, you gain intelligence that would never be possible by staying put in your home town. I am very creative. I love makeup - makeup for beauty or makeup for turning people into skeletons and mermaids. I love to binge-watch netflix. I have seen 2/3 of all television ever made at this point. Yes, please picture me all alone in the bath tub, with pizza - maybe a hot wing or two - and my macbook bingeing on Arrested Development, Orange is The New Black, or some good ol Gilmore Girls. Oy with the poodles already! I don't even know. Ramble Ramble. I am just excited to be apart of this world. I am always excited to learn new things. I am available for paid and unpaid positions. I love anything that can help boost my resume and network. Running lines. PA jobs. Short Films. Student Films. Web Series. I am here if you need someone to do makeup. I am just here if you want me around. I will find a way to make it work. Anyhooo, it is so great to meet all of you. Hope to meet some of you and collaborate in the future. Huuzah!

I honestly don't get it. I write my female characters the same way I always have: as good as I can make them - which is the same way I write my male characters. I don't know if it's because of all the praise heaped upon Joss Whedon, but I've seen a lot of people almost obsess over how to write women, with others claiming "I write strong female leads" as their calling card, as if it's a unique trait that only they can bring to the table. My approach is to consider who the character is as a person, what the character's function is in the plot/scene, factor in the tone of the script and go from there. It's not an exact science, but we've all interacted with both men and women our entire lives, so should know that everyone - in some way or another - is different; therefore, with a bit of imagination, we can make our characters out to be whoever we want them to be. I just watched the latest Terminator instalment: Sarah Conner is no longer a "weak woman waiting for the man to save her" but is now kick-arse. Totally. Personally, I found it a nice spin, but does it mean that the original Sarah Conner character was poorly crafted and not up the standard writers should be aiming for today? Let's look at her character in the 1984 film: a 20-something year old waitress, rightfully clueless as to her role in the future of mankind. No, she isn't a ninja, she doesn't pull rank on the time-setting and start ordering Kyle Reese around and she certainly doesn't go toe-to-toe with the mericless cyborg programmed solely to kill her, but does this make her "weak"? Personally, I always found that the fact she's a completely normal woman suddenly thrown into a ridiculously deadly situation all the more thrilling. She has to dig deep, use all her instincts to survive, and come the end, she's as much trying to keep Kyle Reese alive as he is her. My point is that it all comes back to what I stated above: realistic character + role in plot + story tone. Your woman can be fiercely independent or subservient, deadly or timid, sexy or plain; writing strong female characters shouldn't be about using a set of key ingredients to form the perfect character for a Hollywood starlet, but about her bringing drama/humour/tension/entertainment to the script. But then, I could be wrong, and all Hollywood's interested in at the moment is independent, resourceful, smart-talking, arse-kicking clones of women and you're free to continue to obsess. Just don't forget to give her that past trauma to overcome [insert wink smiley here].

Hi Randle. I'm RB, Founder and CEO of Stage 32. As a screenwriter, producer, actor and filmmaker, I know first-hand the challenges all creatives face finding work, landing representation, launching projects, securing funding and simply making the connections that will make a difference in their careers.

This is a network for you, built by you. Like most things in life, the more you participate, the greater the rewards.
