Work in progress...

A little update:

This week the director sent me the photos he wants for the poster of his short film.

I'll start working on them and let you know the final result. I'm very excited.

And how are the graphic designs for your films going? :D

Ciao!

Maurice Vaughan

Congratulations, Ugo Cavallo! I'm not working on designs right now, but I'm making progress on a feature script I'm rewriting for Stage 32’s November Write Club. My main goal for NWC is finish rewriti...

I have dabbled in AI to make posters. I've gotten results from awful to pretty good. Will look to beef them up sooner rather than later.

Ugo Cavallo

Michael Dzurak Luckily, with the few productions I've worked with, they're very reluctant to use AI to create posters (LOL). I agree. If the film is your own work and you're also in charge of producti...

Thoughts on finding a production partner?

Hey there Stage32 community, first time posting or even being able to look around the site. I joined this site with the intention of trying to find someone that would be interested in creating a new YouTube channel and also had some slight experience of being on camera and/or dabbling in editing.

Your profile shows you're in IL. Look up the IL Film Commission, and Google up any film groups in your state and in the cities near you. Someone will turn up. Break a leg!

Write Club

Is the new blog for the November Write Club up yet? I would like to add to the blog and comment.

I hope to pitch some ideas to Disney that matches their values. Including revivals to their previous works including sequel films.

Miss Bunny`s Groove

From Family Joke to Funky Groove — Meet Miss Bunny!

For years, I’ve been saying this little rhyme to my son Glenn:

“My name is Mister Bunny

And I would like to say something funny

But my nose is runny

And I need some money

To go buy some honey

At least the day is sunny.”

It was just a silly line betw...

Account hacked????

All of my data has been deleted from my account (except for my scripts and awards). What is happening? Did this happen to anyone else?

@stage32

Geoff Hall

Ella Scott hi Ella, I can see four loglines and numerous awards on there. Can you see them as well? Although there was no Profile Picture.

Ella Scott

Maurice Vaughan I have emailed them, but no one has responded. Thank you for the suggestion.

Ella Scott

@Geoff Hall, Other than my scripts and awards, everything else is gone. My work history, profile photos, etc.

Maurice Vaughan

You're welcome, Ella Scott. Support gets a lot of emails. It might take some time to hear back.

Geoff Hall

Ella Scott I would follow Maurice’s advice and contact support. I hope they can help you.

New Frankenstein???

I'm not a hater at all so this is not a reaction from that perspective....I'm curious if others felt the same way about the new Frankenstein. I really did not like it. At all. I couldn't finish it, so if it significantly alters its approach after hour 1, then maybe I should put in the time to finish...

Having a deal

If in the situation I found a production company that wants to buy a script it would be more profitable via them and not with an agent?

Maurice Vaughan

Hi, Gilad Riv. If you sold your script to a production company without an agent, you would get more of the money.

George R.R. Martin Is Carving Up OpenAI In Court, So Far

Is the legal system turning against AI scraping books to train their AI systems and now, at last, confirming it as a breach of copyright?

“So far, one of the losers appears to be OpenAI in a lawsuit from book authors, who have steadily been building a formidable case that may force the tech giant's h...

It seems like it, Geoff Hall. I hope we see more lawsuits and wins against AI companies!

My Photos Are AI!? - Albert Dros

What If?

Yo, it’s ReignWithWill. The Blurred Show asks the questions you didn’t know you needed to answer. Here’s one for you: Sobriety is illegal. No sober mornings. No dry nights.

That could be a hit movie/show, William Crudup. You said sobriety is illegal, so I'd go to prison, and I'm not going to prison. I'd go on the run.

Maurice Vaughan

Actually, now that I think about it, William Crudup, I could survive in that world, but I wouldn't be able to live a normal life.
