Introduce Yourself : My introduction by Catherine Powell

My introduction

This is my first rodeo, and gathering as much knowledge and info to gain experience wherever I can find them. I've completed my first feature spec script, and need a Manager. I'd love to hear from you! Thanks.

Hi, Catherine Powell. Welcome to the community. Stage 32 has a blog that'll help you navigate the platform and connect with creatives and industry professionals all over the world. Producers, directors, executives, screenwriters, and more. www.stage32.com/blog/how-to-successfully-navigate-the-stage-32-platform-...

Stage 32's next Community Open House is Dec 29th (www.stage32.com/education/products/stage-32-s-december-community-open-ho...). It's free to attend. It'll also help you navigate Stage 32 and connect with creatives and industry pros. Even if you can’t make it to the Open House, sign up and you’ll get the recording in your Stage 32 Education Library when it’s available.

Congratulations on finishing your first feature spec script! I suggest building a portfolio of scripts (maybe 3 or 4) before looking for a manager. Managers like to know a writer has a portfolio because it shows they can write multiple great scripts.

Catherine Powell

Thanks for the info and encouragement.

You're welcome, Catherine Powell. What's your script about?

Welcome! Catherine Powell Good luck with everything! I'm in a similar place, working on my 2nd spec, looking for representation (hoping it happens naturally), and networking. What kind of genres do you write under?

Maurice Vaughan Ryan Wilford Here’s what I’m working on: An emotionally charged suspense thriller based on true events, following the timeline of a woman’s survival before and after a fatal mistake leaves her with no fame and no name.

I love the concept, thanks for sharing. Good luck! @Catherine

That sounds really interesting, Catherine Powell! Reach out to the Success Team at success@stage32.com. Geoff and his team can help you connect with managers.

You could post your script on your profile. Producers search profiles for projects. That and networking are how I sold four short scripts to a producer. Click the gear symbol in the top right-hand corner and select “Edit profile” in the drop-down menu. Scroll down to “Loglines” and click “Add/edit loglines” to the right of “Loglines.” You can also post your script on your profile this way: www.stage32.com/loglines (near the top where it says “Add a Logline”)

Thanks very much!
