Hello community, my name's Christian. I joined S32 a couple of weeks ago and from time to time I have been reading about filmmaking as it has been my dream/wish when I was a child.
Today I am designing, coding, and writing. I have an MBA, but completed a film making course while attending university. In over ten years I have published five books in English and German language, covering the genres thriller, romance, sci-fi, and non-fiction.
My interest in the movies awakened with movie magazines and shows on TV and making-of shows. Then I liked the Dutch director Paul Verhoeven ("Basic Instinct", "Total Recall") very much. Today I still like science-fiction, but also drama, crime, and the style of noir movies, limited tv series, and indies (like "Tangerine", which was an example in the course "Cellphone movies").
What do I hope to find here? Well, I never give up on pursuing my dreams and at least I hope to make a dream come true to one day participate in making a movie or initiating one on my own, either as producer or learning to write good scripts. But I guess both are linked at least for a good first pitch.
I am looking forward to have a nice exchange with you, to learn, and to advance ourselves.

Hi Shellie Schmals, thank you very much. I have an idea for a limited tv series, but as somebody new to script writing, I'd start with a short movie to gainpractice.
