Hi everyone! I'm an American expat outside of Victoria, BC. I write cathartic thrillers that go down easy. Feel free to send a connection and check out my loglines in my profile. The scripts were a blast to write and are even more fun to read!
Hi, I'm a screenwriter from Port Elizabeth, Nelson Mandela Bay in South Africa. I am really enjoying this workshop. I have in the first 10 minutes learned more than my school years in the benches.
Ooh I should probably do a little self-promotion. Again, my name is Kim from Rhode Island and I'm heavily into fantasy, steampunk, and eldritch horror. I'm also a freelance graphic designer and illustrator who loves doing character design as well!
Hello everyone. Video editor and shooter here. Worked on Cocaine Cowboys: Los Muchachos and I'm looking to provide value to your next project. Follow me on instagram @nathanscamera.
C-Mack is terrific! Such critical information he's sharing--priceless. What a genuine and likeable guy. It's obvious he's rooting for all of us to succeed. Thanks Stage32!
Guess I should intro myself as well... my name is Hymnson, I'm an actor, screenwriter, stuntman, and diversity advocate in Los Angeles. You can follow me on Insta at @heyhymnson or check out my imdb at www.imdb.me/hymnson
Greetings! I'm an author and screenwriter from Alberta, working mostly in speculative fiction. So if you like fantasy or sci fi, you know, get at me. finger guns
Hi everyone, love the energy of this session, very insightful. I am a screenwriter (www.fratelliwren.com) in the UK, sitting here in the dark with my coffee! Great to, virtually, meet you all and would love to collaborate/connect.
Excellent workshop by Chris Mack! Hey all I'm based in Culver City and working on tv pilots and feature films that focus on diverse women, demonstrating how "ordinary" people rise up to challenges in extraordinary ways...often in historic settings like World War II or the Gilded Age... @nataliebergman on twitter
Hey, no shame, Mandi Allen! We're all on the same creative journey, but we take different exits and entrances back on that highway! Glad to have you here!
Hi all! Currently working on a TV pilot and editing a screenplay so this is right on time! Love the webinar. I appreciate the candor and the great information!
Hey, Jack Wood! I can't say for sure if the PDF will be available, but the recording should be available. Look for a follow-up email after the webinar wraps that confirms the recording is available for viewing!
Just a friendly reminder - This is a forum-based platform, so after you comment, you may need to reload the page to see new comments. Don't forget to add members to your network by clicking on the PLUS symbol on their profile icon!
Hi everyone! I'm a writer currently working on the pitch of an animated series with a creative producer, based on a tabletop RPG and transmedia universe I created.
Just to confirm - in the Q&A box in the Zoom webinar, Harrison responded with, "We'll have the recording of this entire presentation including the PowerPoint available to rewatch later through your Stage 32 account." So, once logged in, hover over the Education tab at the top of the page, select "My Education", and you should see all the webinars you've registered for. Click this one, and it will take you to the recording and supporting material (once available).
As a feature writer, that's transitioning into episodic, I am so grateful for the season map, that breaks down how the three act structure, is broken down into episodes. Major kudos for that!
My bad - Amanda just said no pdf will be available, but the recording will be available 24-48 hours after the webinar wraps. Thank you all for your kind words, it's truly appreciated!
I'm Jack Silver - a film and theatre writer and director (and other things) from London, U.K.

This is a great session BTW :)
Really keen to connect with interesting people to chat about doing interesting work.
Hey, Codey S. Wilson - no need! The recording of the webinar will be available in 24-48 hours after it wraps. Nick Wray - Not sure how long it will continue, but if you have to bounce, you can watch the replay over the weekend!
Very informative. Covers many aspects of writing for television but aspects particular to what Netflix is looking for those pitching to them. Solid info. Thx.
Too bad writers are the most underrated, and under appreciated, part of the Industry. Screenwriters don't even get credits listed on most streaming sites. smh

This is a fantastic presentation, Chris! I love the scope and depth! Thanks to Stage 32 for bringing it to us.
Hi! I'm Paula Gill, a former television executive, and now, a writer and story coach. With my own writing, I focus on online serialized storytelling and audio dramas. But I'm also developing young adult and family-friendly stories for TV and animation.
I'd love to connect, and I'm happy to answer questions about any of my areas of expertise.
Thank you for your time. If you have a real solid idea, including a spec script, with a full Bible, is it better to work with a Show Runner, or pitch the concept yourself? Also, is it good to have a spec script attached to the Bible?
CHRIS, will you watch my two minute proof of concept trailer for my show!!! :) - (worth a shot) - I made it in hopes of strategically starting a conversation.
I was only able to attend the first 90mins... this was great, and needs another look with some note taking (plus I want to see the rest of the presentation). Where can I find the posted video once available?
I know asking Chris to watch my trailer was dumb, and seemingly arrogant, but I thought, "How could I get someone to read my pilot?" So, I shot the 2-minute proof of concept trailer.
Hey, Mauricio Niebla! Great question! I think you can tell from the Q&A with Amanda and Christopher that that is not an easy, straight-forward answer, HOWEVER, Stage32 has a TON of resources to help you continue to shape up your script and pitch to make it available to Netflix. The most direct route is to pitch it on one of our pitch sessions: https://www.stage32.com/scriptservices/pitch-sessions
Keep in mind that these pitch sessions are meant to be educational first, and an opportunity to connect with executives second. It is up to the executive whether or not they request more information.
They said to give them up to 48 hours to process the recording Dave Brynlund and it will be available via, I think, education or resources in your Stage32 profile.
According to Chris Mack, we do not need a finished pilot script to pitch to Netflix but we do need an agent or manager in order to pitch to Netflix and the agent and or manager will need a finished script.
Hi! I had to leave the webinar early because I had a class, but I was wondering where the recorded video will be posted? Learning from Chris was such a privilege! Thank you.
In a Bible, is it better to focus on three to five main characters, or list as many characters as possible, which if their stories were expanded, could have an impact on the story?
Hey Chris! Question about IP: what are your thoughts on taking a script and flipping it into your own IP (i.e. a graphic novel) in order to get some hype?
As a follow-up, one of the best benefits of Stage32 is CHOOSING who reads your script, whether for script coverage (https://www.stage32.com/scriptservices/coverage) which gives you written notes or script consulting (https://www.stage32.com/scriptservices/consulting) which gives you a one-on-one call for feedback. This is a fantastic value to get that feedback since a typical "Hollywood Meeting" to pitch your script would just give you a "no" or a "tell me more".
BONUS: ANY script that gets a double recommendation on coverage (recommend the writer and the script) will be added to our monthly LookBook that is circulated to all our executives! What a Win-Win! You get feedback and the opportunity to reach industry executives!
Amazing, S32! Really! Chris M. of Netflix could've probably made a living as a prominent screenwriting instructor in Hollywood; he's certainly out-chalkboards two prestigious ones Iāve had the privilege of receiving writing tutelage under. Yet, Chris chose to aid writers and content creators in submitting effectively to his parent company so their stories can be heard. No doubt, Chris is someone who adores his distribution network first and foremost, yet he also loves writing and is quickly becoming the screenwriterās hero.
This was my first Stage 32 webinar, but I've watch a few from others and I have to say Chris - this was amazing. You're a great presenter, I love your story, and just thank you so much!
Hi! Screenwriter (profession) and Director (Aspiring) here! This was a really insightful and informative experience. Enjoyed all of the chat conversations as well! What a great introduction to Stage32!
that was amazing. This is a great group to be involved with. Generously gives so much information. Chris Mack @Netflix was humble, knowledgable and transparent, Amanda and Rob brilliant facilitators. thank you again for the opportunity to be apart of this
It was great - the only thing was I had an actors recording from 8 to 9 so I missed the critical middle bit! I understand it was recorded but do you have to be a paid subscriber to watch it again?
This was such an amazing webinar, I can't thank the Stage 32 team and Chris enough! I learnt so much about screenwriting and pitching from a refreshing perspective. Totally invaluable and inspiring :)

I know asking Chris to watch my trailer was dumb, and seemingly arrogant, but I thought, "How could I get someone to read my pilot?" So, I shot the 2-minute proof of concept trailer.
Here is a good resource for your Bible that I have been using. https://www.studiobinder.com/tv-show-bible-examples/
Chris is so direct and dynamic with his info.
Hey, Mauricio Niebla! Great question! I think you can tell from the Q&A with Amanda and Christopher that that is not an easy, straight-forward answer, HOWEVER, Stage32 has a TON of resources to help you continue to shape up your script and pitch to make it available to Netflix. The most direct route is to pitch it on one of our pitch sessions: https://www.stage32.com/scriptservices/pitch-sessions
Keep in mind that these pitch sessions are meant to be educational first, and an opportunity to connect with executives second. It is up to the executive whether or not they request more information.

They said to give them up to 48 hours to process the recording Dave Brynlund and it will be available via, I think, education or resources in your Stage32 profile.

According to Chris Mack, we do not need a finished pilot script to pitch to Netflix but we do need an agent or manager in order to pitch to Netflix and the agent and or manager will need a finished script.
Great webinar today. Lots of interesting perspectives about stories around the world.
Any agents on here?
Hi! I had to leave the webinar early because I had a class, but I was wondering where the recorded video will be posted? Learning from Chris was such a privilege! Thank you.

Is there a way to send a novel I wrote (published and awarded) to Netflix?
This has been absolutely wonderful! Thank you to Chris, Amanda and R.B. Great content!!
In a Bible, is it better to focus on three to five main characters, or list as many characters as possible, which if their stories were expanded, could have an impact on the story?

Hey Chris! Question about IP: what are your thoughts on taking a script and flipping it into your own IP (i.e. a graphic novel) in order to get some hype?

As a follow-up, one of the best benefits of Stage32 is CHOOSING who reads your script, whether for script coverage (https://www.stage32.com/scriptservices/coverage) which gives you written notes or script consulting (https://www.stage32.com/scriptservices/consulting) which gives you a one-on-one call for feedback. This is a fantastic value to get that feedback since a typical "Hollywood Meeting" to pitch your script would just give you a "no" or a "tell me more".
BONUS: ANY script that gets a double recommendation on coverage (recommend the writer and the script) will be added to our monthly LookBook that is circulated to all our executives! What a Win-Win! You get feedback and the opportunity to reach industry executives!

Will Netflix take a one-season show?
Good addition.

Amazing, S32! Really! Chris M. of Netflix could've probably made a living as a prominent screenwriting instructor in Hollywood; he's certainly out-chalkboards two prestigious ones Iāve had the privilege of receiving writing tutelage under. Yet, Chris chose to aid writers and content creators in submitting effectively to his parent company so their stories can be heard. No doubt, Chris is someone who adores his distribution network first and foremost, yet he also loves writing and is quickly becoming the screenwriterās hero.

It was great - the only thing was I had an actors recording from 8 to 9 so I missed the critical middle bit! I understand it was recorded but do you have to be a paid subscriber to watch it again?
