A free and open forum. The place to discuss anything on your mind film, television and theater related…or not.
A close up/screenshot of audio tracks. This was from a recording/mixing session I was working on. Whether I am drawing storyboards, cutting tracks or video editing, I like to do it all in film and video, because I am curious to learn more, pick up more skills, not to stay in one framework.

When mysterious fractures begin spreading through a futuristic city, a young woman discovers she may be the only person who can see what lies beyond them—and the truth could change reality itself.
I’m exploring this concep...

Hi, Kevin. Would be interested in reading it. You can message me in Stage. Talk to you soon!
If you could meet with any director or producer or studio executive to share an idea with, who would it be? For me it would be a Disney executive, Matt Groening, Tim Federle, and Ryan Murphy.

Hello,
Does having Stage 32 badges add legitimacy to a screenwriter's profile? As someone who is only just working on their 2nd Screenplay, what is the benefit of having them if you wish to eventually become a FT screenwriter? Thanks.

My advice: Just write. If you have a question and someone gives you an answer, ask for evidence. That would be the least risky path for your dollar.

Michael David Hahahaha! That’s an email ad. I don’t have an Apple Card.
Kevin Hager Agreed, Kevin! I’ll assume it’s a scam. I just continue to delete them as soon as they pop up. Uggggh. Such a drag.
Most creators think financing begins when they approach investors, assemble a deck, or build a pitch.

Great post! Have a clear structure can help inform everything including potential marketing and distribution.
Thanks, Laura — exactly.
