Your Stage 32 Success Story Starts Here: Join Our FREE June Community Open House!

Wednesday, June 10th at 12:00 pm PT!

Every success story begins with a first step.

If you’re ready to take yours, join me, Ashley Smith, Head of Community at Stage 32, for our Summer Community Open House Webcast happening Wednesday, June 10th at 12:00 pm PT!

Free Registration: https://www.stage32.com/education/products/stage-32s-june-2026-community-open-house-webcast

Whether you’re chasing representation, looking for collaborators, or simply ready to stop creating in isolation, the Stage 32 Community Open House is your moment to show up, be seen, and start making real progress.

This free live event isn’t a presentation; it’s a fully interactive session led by you and guided by Ashley Smith, Head of Community at Stage 32. You’ll have the opportunity to share your goals, ask questions, and tell us exactly what resources or support you’re looking for right now in your creative journey.

Ashley will walk you through the most powerful tools and features on Stage 32, including how to build a strong profile that acts as your virtual business card—clearly showcasing your skills, interests, and creative voice. You’ll learn how to participate in the free Stage 32 Lounges in a way that positions you as someone others want to collaborate with, including how to make a compelling post, contribute to ongoing conversations, and stay consistently active in a way that builds visibility and trust.

You’ll also learn how to keep up with the latest industry news, platform updates, and community insights through the Stage 32 Blog, and how to access Stage 32 Education, Certification, and Script Services.

This session will close with a live Q&A tailored specifically to your needs—whether you’re a writer, director, producer, actor, editor, or someone who wears multiple hats.

If you can’t attend live, don’t worry, registering ensures you’ll receive the full recording to watch anytime from anywhere!

Wherever you’re starting from, this is your launchpad. Join us and take that first step with intention.

My original pilot JOOK

So this happened. One-hour pilot "JOOK" premise: Named as prime suspects in the murder of an FBI informant in 1946 Mississippi, two young World War 2 vets, a Black communist moonshiner and a white sheriff with Klan ties, must face their demons when they’re forced into an uneasy alliance.

Congratulations, Mugs Cahill!

Woohoo! Script selected for OWA.

Happy to report that my script 'DUE' is moving forward for consideration for an OWA. It was also requested by a pro when I submitted a written pitch a few weeks ago (yet to hear back). Nice little injection of validation for the new year.

Heidi Schussman

Congrats Kathyrn! Being considered is great. I had that happen to me and it was hard to consider the it a good thing when I wasn't selected, but it really is a compliment.

Volkan Durakcay

Congrats Kathyrn!
