Nidhi Shetty's Lounge Discussions

Welcome, Nidhi! Nice to meet you. Glad you're here. If there's anything I can do to help you, let me know!

Hi, Nidhi Shetty. Glad you decided to jump in and introduce yourself.

Here are some tips for navigating the industry after you've written a few projects:

#1) Build relationships (you can do this as you write your projects so you'll have relationships in place when you're ready to search for an agent, search for a manager, and pitch your projects)

#2) Learn the business side of the film industry

#3) Read the industry trades (The Hollywood Reporter, Variety, and Deadline Hollywood)

#4) Maintain the relationships that you build (check on those people to see how they're doing, support their projects, etc.)

#5) Continue to get better at screenwriting and pitching

#6) Continue to build your portfolio

#7) Check out the blogs, webinars, classes, etc. on Stage 32. It's a "one-stop-shop" on how to navigate the industry. And I say "one-stop-shop," but some of the things that Stage 32 offers are free.

Appreciate the tips, Maurice Vaughan . Have a nice day!

You're welcome, Nidhi Shetty. Have a nice day as well!

Hi Nidhi! Nice to meet you! I’m part of the Stage 32 team and am happy to help anytime. The best thing to do is start connecting with your community here, and building your connections with executives. Feel free to message and I’m happy help give more specific recommendations! Hope all is well. Cheers, GiGi

Welcome, Radha! Nice to meet you. Glad you're here.

Thank you, Matthew.

Good to meet you, too.

Hello, Radha Bharadwaj. I'm seeing amazing filmography under your belt. It's nice to meet you!

Thanks. Good to meet you, too,

Hi Radha hope this finds you well. It would be very interesting to chat with you and hear more about your experience working with Imagine Ent. I'm trying to connect with their animation division, if there is one allocated for that purpose. Maybe they do since I see they produced "Curious George"???
