Been in negotiations since last October, but writers are now voting whether to strike. Very similar to WGA strike last year. WGC wants same protections as WGA, while CMPA wants the right to come up with ideas and write the first drafts of scripts with AI

I am a Disney Fan, and I dream of working with their company, and if there are other Disney fans on this site, I am calling out to you. I have some ideas that could be gifts to Disney, and I really need help in getting them out there. One is Music and Magic a sequel crossover between Disney's franchises American Dragon: Jake Long and the High School Musical franchises, the other is Once Upon a Time in Disney where a couple meet Mickey Mouse and must save Disney and meet a young Walt Disney.

So, I ask out to all Disney fans please help me.

Thank you for your time.

Many of us have questions, concerns, and many thoughts about A.I. and the future of filmmaking. One critique I have not heard is the one below, but it makes a lot of sense to me. Sure, A.I. is rather amazing but it also seems to output "dead" works. I've found it difficult to pin down exactly why. I think the argument in the video below gets at the "why" in a rather compelling way.

What do you think?

Honestly, I’ve asked myself this question many times. When I first started writing, I saw people making thousands from their books, scripts, and articles, while others—just as talented—barely made a dime. It made me dig deep and figure out the real difference.

Here’s what I found:

1. Writing is a Skill, But Selling is a Strategy – Many great writers assume their work will sell itself. It won’t. The ones making money know how to market, network, and position themselves.

2. Consistency Wins – I used to write sporadically, hoping something would take off. But when I started treating writing like a real business—showing up daily, pitching clients, and publishing consistently—things changed.

3. The Right Niche Matters – I’ve written ebooks, articles, and scripts in different fields. The moment I started focusing on high-demand areas, I saw a shift. People want value, and if you give them what they’re looking for, they’ll pay for it.

4. Investing in Growth – I learned from others, took courses, and kept improving. The best writers are always students of the craft and the business.

The truth is, making money from writing isn’t luck. It’s about learning the game and playing it well.

I have drafted a pilot of a 30-minute TV dramedy about a young woman who is the first hire for a biotech company making fake meat, and I could use the help of a collaborator who has first had experience working in a Silicon Valley start up - preferably in the biotech arena. Anybody out there interested?

Hey All. Glad to part of the Stage 32 community. I am a screenwriter who specializes in Sci-fi and Fantasy, usually with thriller or action slants. I've been writing for 40 years but only the last 5 as a screenwriter. I am looking forward immensely to meeting new people and expanding my knowledge in the industry. No matter how much you think you know, there's always more to learn.

What are your thoughts about this, as a UK Producer?

I’m interested in an answer to this conundrum:

“The streaming services have pulled back from co-producing dramas with British broadcasters, which is contributing to the funding crunch. This issue has been exacerbated by distributors stumping up lower advances; funding cuts and ad market woes squeezing the BBC and ITV’s income; and chronic inflation keeping the cost of production prohibitively high.”

Why have the streaming services “pulled back” from co-productions with British broadcasters? Were you aware of this? Are the streamers more interested in films than long-form series?

Hello,

I’m Chris, and I’m an aspiring screenwriter whose only weakness is writing. I would say I’m more of a storyteller learning to write.

So you understand where I started. a few years ago when having someone comment of a screenplay I’ve written, they said at one point I could use more adjectives. Well I had to look up what an adjective was.

That’s me in a nutshell . I charge head first and learn as I go. I crated this account maybe a year ago, but I’m only now trying to utilize it.

I love story’s and storytelling, and though I’ve had many hobbies I keep finding myself drawn back to this, and while a younger me said the risk was to great to even try, me now doesn’t care if I fail.

I want to be a good writer, that’s why I’m here. to learn. I’m also interested in all aspects of film and television. So if you want to reach out and talk writing or anything else feel free to.

While I created this to help me improve and see where I can go, at the end of the day if I help someone else or teach someone something it will be a worthwhile endeavor.

To end I think my first attempt at writing this went much better, but I went to answer a message and came back to everything being erased so you get the thrown together version. Sorry.
