Welcome Carlos

Welcome, Carlos!

Welcome to the community Carlos

Nice experience. Hello Carlos!

Welcome, Stellla! Sorry to hear you haven't been active on S32. In the past three years I've been here, I've had five, or 6, meet ups and went from 0 credits to acting on movies, tv series, and music vids. All from hosting S32 meet ups and tossing pages on the table. I'm also one of Denvers' leading actors now. Have you tried a meet up yet?

Bem vinda! :)

Shawn Speake Hi! I haven't tried meet ups yet but will consider it for sure! It's been sad to be not active here for past couple years but now the idea is come back focused. Thanks a lot for sharing experience! <3

That's what's up! Always there for u! Good cop and bad cop. I play em both. But it's always to help. I believe straight forward talk gets us to our goals faster than funkin' around. Hope this helps

Best of luck Stella! i worked on a pilot myself and gained some great feedback from one of the Happy Writer's coverage services. I'm still in the rewriting process and I have a good feeling about this. I guess that's what happens when you don't hold anything back. Here's to both of us, making things happen.

Best of luck Sean.

Wishing you the best

Nice to meet you

Thank you, Shawn Speake . That's actually what I am doing. I am turning my favorite novel into a screenplay. Have to make some major alterations, age the characters and change their living conditions and all, but it's a lot of fun.
Thank you as well for the kind offer to come to you with questions. I might well take you up on that.

Let's get it started! In my studies, I've found 'THE STORY SOLUTION' by Eric Edson to be invaluable. This book breaks NOVELS into sequences for MOVIES. Some say screenwriting is scene writing. I say that's old school now. Screenwriting is sequence writing. If u don't find the book to be what you're looking for, I'll pay for it - very serious. I believe in Hero Goal Sequences. Any questions?

... and the front cover....

The 21 Hero Goal Sequences for a current project, MAD MOUNTAIN MASSACRE. I'm a big fans of cards on the board. I'm also a big fan of watching all movies with captions and time on. To be cont.

Looks like a great book, Shawn Speake! Thank you. (I'll buy and and simply don't tell you if it doesn't work for me :-P )
I also love Lisa Cron's Wired For Story, but this one seems to be even more of what I need right now.

What's good, J! Welcome to S32! I'm from Richmond, Va. That's what's up. My first tip would be never say acting again. I believe just saying that 'word' fucks aspiring creatives up. I don't act. I be. I'm always a version of myself. I'm cool with my brand or being typecast. So I'm not reaching out of my range. That would be the second biggest thing I see fucking up Denver actors. Reaching too far when they don't even have their brand emotion down. Mine is 'antagonism'. I play bad guys. The third tip would be: walk into every audition like you own the world. You will stand out big time, because without fail, almost everyone, if not everyone there, will be nervous - but you. Any questions?
