Your Stage 32 Success Story Starts Here: Join Our FREE February Community Open House!

Wednesday, February 25th at 12:00 pm PT!

Every success story begins with a first step.

If you’re ready to take yours, join me, Ashley Smith, Head of Community at Stage 32, for our February Community Open House Webcast happening Wednesday, February 25th at 12:00 pm PT!

Free Registration: https://www.stage32.com/education/products/stage-32s-february-2026-community-open-house-webcast

Whether you’re chasing representation, looking for collaborators, or simply ready to stop creating in isolation, the Stage 32 Community Open House is your moment to show up, be seen, and start making real progress.

This free live event isn’t a presentation; it’s a fully interactive session led by you and guided by Ashley Smith, Head of Community at Stage 32. You’ll have the opportunity to share your goals, ask questions, and tell us exactly what resources or support you’re looking for right now in your creative journey.

Ashley will walk you through the most powerful tools and features on Stage 32, including how to build a strong profile that acts as your virtual business card—clearly showcasing your skills, interests, and creative voice. You’ll learn how to participate in the free Stage 32 Lounges in a way that positions you as someone others want to collaborate with, including how to make a compelling post, contribute to ongoing conversations, and stay consistently active in a way that builds visibility and trust.

You’ll also learn how to keep up with the latest industry news, platform updates, and community insights through the Stage 32 Blog, and how to access Stage 32 Education, Certification, and Script Services.

Sydney from our Education Team will also be live to answer questions and help you understand which educational paths may best align with your goals and interests.

This session will close with a live Q&A tailored specifically to your needs—whether you’re a writer, director, producer, actor, editor, or someone who wears multiple hats.

If you can’t attend live, don’t worry, registering ensures you’ll receive the full recording to watch anytime from anywhere!

Wherever you’re starting from, this is your launchpad. Join us and take that first step with intention.

I can easily see this forum getting out of control if we talk politics. We should only be talking about the subject of this forum and this service. Thank you.

There are a lot of scammers and plagiarists out there. Not only should you not send money, but until you've done due diligence, you shouldn't send any scripts. Even then, make sure you have copyrighted your work and copied your agent/manager/attorney of someone else you trust implicitly.
