Stage 32 Presents: Rebuilding the Pipeline: How Producers & Filmmakers Can Get Greenlit in Today’s Landscape

The entertainment industry has weathered a wild ride—from the Great Content Gold Rush, where streamers churned out unprecedented volumes of film and TV with lucrative talent deals, to the seismic shifts caused by the 2023 strikes that stalled production pipelines and reshaped deal structures.

Discover what projects are getting greenlit in this “new normal,” how independent creators can compete with talent offers, and the best strategies for collaborating with guilds to keep your production moving. Packed with insider insights and practical advice, this panel will empower you to rebuild, adapt, and thrive in today’s evolving filmmaking landscape.
