Happy Sunday, Creative Army!

First, congratulations to all of you who have already participated in our monthly Introduce Yourself Weekend! Thousands of connections have been made between entertainment creatives and professionals from around the globe. Whether you are a long-time member or brand new to Stage 32, take a moment to pop over to the Introduce Yourself Lounge and say hello before the end of the weekend.

First up, in this video from Bloomberg Originals, you'll learn about the finances that go into marketing a project in hopes of winning an Academy Award. We know how much marketing can impact on who wins and loses at the Oscars. This video gives a behind-the-scenes look at what it really takes to bring home the gold in movie making.

Next up, in this video from Panavision, FERRARI cinematographer Erik Messerschmidt breaks down how he worked on this visceral racing film, pulling off incredible filmmaking techniques to create Michael Man's vision. In doing so, he also digs into the relationship between director and cinematographer as one of 'mentorship.'

As always, here at Stage 32, we love to share stories and knowledge with our fellow film fans. Know someone who would love this content? Share it with them! Tag them below!
