The Stage 32 Consultation Difference
How it Works
Stage 32 Exclusive Consultations put you one-on-one with working development executives, producers, managers, agents, financiers and more.
You choose your executive to work with. That executive will read your feature script, TV pilot, pitch deck, adaptation, or book and discuss not only the positives and areas for improvement regarding the material, but where it sits in the marketplace.
Best of all...YOU can guide the call to discuss the elements most important to you.
No matter what you are looking to get reviewed or career strategy you're looking to discuss, you'll be speaking live to a professional who does this for a living in real time.

“Michael Schulman's suggestions regarding structure were valuable, specifically his concerns about presenting the protagonist's initial circumstances and challenges with more clarity. His notes sat with me for several days, then things moved quickly in my thinking and on the page. The hour with Michael was time (and money) well-spent. Highly recommend.”
Dan StoneDirector, Writer, Screenwriter“Will Raynor gave me excellent notes on my action-comedy SMALLWOOD. I had several smack-myself-in-the-forehead moments when I thought, “Of course, that will make the script better.” Now I’m forging ahead with the rewrite. Thanks, Will. And thanks to Jason and the whole Stage 32 team.”
David PageCamera Operator, Gaffer/Lighting Technician, Producer“I just wanted to say that I had the most amazing script feedback session I've ever had. I submitted my script for Hidden Gems for feedback to Boman Modine through Stage32 and the feedback he provided was extremely valuable and beneficial. I couldn't believe how well he understood the core premise of my screenplay and how thorough his thinking was. I believe I will be able to really deepen the narrative of my story, better flesh out the world, and push everything - including my characters - to the next level with his feedback. He really understood the story and provided feedback that was on point. Anyway, I couldn't be happier with this service so wanted to mention it and say thanks! __Peace,_Kane”

“I am extremely grateful to Jason Mirch and the team behind Stage 32 for helping me get the TV series I developed in front of all the major studios in Hollywood. I've been developing the concept for the past 3 or so years and while my package was good I was struggling to get it to where I felt it needed to be to make my pitch irresistible to the buyers in Hollywood. Having never written or produced a project before, I found it extremely frustrating trying to navigate my way through the process of taking an idea and developing into a great pitch. Let alone getting my pitch heard by buyers. Anyone who has attempted this journey knows that there is no linear path forward. Each successful project has its own unique journey to getting picked up. However, there are definitely steps every writer must take to prepare them for what's to come. When Jason first reached out to me shortly after I signed up for Stage 32, my project had stalled. I felt I did as much as I could on my own. Figuring out the next steps had eluded me. The advice I was getting from others within the industry wasn't very helpful. Worse is I was given ridiculous quotes from "consultants" in the industry who said they could help me advance my project to the studios. The quotes varied from a $20k to $60k US to revamp my package, which I was told was already better than most. Jason was gracious enough to put me in touch with Anna Henry who is a real development executive with an amazing resume. With her help, I reworked my entire pitch bible and pilot script into the polished gem it is today. Hence, why it has captured the attention of buyers at every major studio. What's more is through Stage 32, Jason has put me in touch with a number of literary managers and producers who have heard my pitch and provided invaluable feedback to make my oral pitch really standout. All this amazing input and direction at a very affordable price and amazing convenience thanks to Stage 32. I encourage anyone who is looking to advance their film”
Braden ChaseActor, Producer, Screenwriter“I didn't know why the Pitch Deck for my Sci-Fi TV Pilot SOLARPUNKS was getting "blah" feedback. I signed-up for a Pitch Deck Consult with Nick Phillips, a successful, award-winning, TV and Feature Producer who's also Stage 32's Executive Liaison. Nick came into our 30 minute call with tons of exciting ideas and one hard truth, I'd overwritten my pitch deck. Nick's notes helped me streamline and re-focus on the bold strokes of my story and future plans. I can't wait to work with Nick again.”
Bradford RichardsonScreenwriter“I had a pitch deck call with Julia Verdin; relaxed, insightful and thorough, and a really good conversation to boot. I left with the confidence that I’m on the right track, armed with many valuable insights and thoughts to further improve my deck, honestly couldn’t have asked for more. Highly recommended. Thanks also to Jason Mirch, and special thanks to Angela Cristantello who was incredibly helpful throughout the process.”

“I had no idea how to turn a 400-page book into a two-hour film. The review gave me a clear sense of what the movie actually is and what I could let go of. I left with a plan I trust.”
Owen BishopWriter“The adaptation review gave me a realistic, encouraging read on turning my memoir into a limited series. They were candid about the market and generous with structure notes. I came away knowing my next three drafts.”
Julian FordWriter, Producer“I've written novels but never adapted one for the screen. The reader walked me through what to keep, what to cut, and how to think in scenes instead of chapters. I finally understand what my book looks like as a film.”
