The Stage 32 Videos: Writing

Before we start talking technique, let's talk about the single biggest reason why screenplays get rejected by actors, directors, and producers, the reason why so many scripts play differently than they read, and the acting fundamental that almost every writer overlooks when they first break into screenwriting!

Written By Me , it was my first short movie as a screen Writer in 2021 ... And I hope you like it .. Full Movie In Profile The Collyer brothers, Homer and Langley, were two reclusive siblings living in Harlem, New York, whose extreme hoarding turned their home into one of the most infamous cases of compulsive clutter in history. Born into a wealthy family, both were educated and talented—Homer a lawyer and Langley an engineer and pianist—but after their parents’ deaths, they withdrew completely from society. Over the years, Langley obsessively collected newspapers, furniture, scrap metal, and countless random objects, filling the house with maze-like tunnels and dangerous traps meant to keep intruders away. As Homer became blind and paralyzed due to illness, Langley took care of him, rarely leaving the house except at night to gather supplies. Their isolation worsened until the entire mansion became a fortress of debris. In 1947, police discovered Homer dead inside the clutter, and after almost two weeks of searching through tons of hoarded material, they found Langley’s body as well—crushed by one of his own booby traps while trying to reach his brother. Their tragic story became a symbol of extreme hoarding, inspiring the term “Collyer Mansion” to describe dangerously cluttered homes.

I present my conceptual video teaser for my new film script, "I Am The Tramp 2: Homo incorporeus," which is a sequel to "I Am The Tramp!" The new script further develops the theme of coexistence between the human world and the world of AI. Тhe first film was a mystery, the second part will give the audience answers to all their questions. It features more dynamic scenes and incredibly surreal visuals of the AI world, worthy of Dali, expertly balanced with witty dialogues. Most importantly, it will give the audience food for thought: about the future of humanity and their own soul. What if we humans have already become "AI modules" ourselves? Let's explore together what it is that makes a human, human!

Raising capital for a film project is one of the toughest challenges a filmmaker will ever face. Unlike traditional businesses, films are considered high-risk investments with unpredictable returns. Investors often hesitate because success depends on countless factors-market timing, distribution deals, and audience reception.
