Executive at Rio Vista Universal - rare breed of finance and creative development, previous showrunner.

Met RB at a recent event, and joined Stage 32. I'm an entrepreneurial spirit with clarity of vision, focused on results! Just negotiated the final equity on a 10 million dollar film scheduled to shoot later this year. Based in LA, I'm a USC School of Cinema alumni, expert fixer and growth strategist with a business, finance, and creative background. Always open to executive positions, deals and projects.

Robert Edgar Seay

Hello everyone, I'm Robert Seay. I've been a member of stage 32 for awhile and also have a growing network of like minded creatives. I have been in the music business with over 20 years performing experience in clubs, concerts, shows etc. along with song material on numerous labels by various artists and now three film scripts in development. I've just completed a new book containing an audio version as well. I am well into a script that is going to be completed within the next few months that I'm very excited about and will be looking for serious underwriters when completed. I am also available to help you with your needs as an actor. Take a look at my video's. I am flexible with range Thanks for viewing, Robert.........

Pleased to meet you James. I would like to be considered as a character actor in your upcoming feature. Thank you!

In the way of Film we stick to Action, Thriller, SciFi, Horror that are contain but expandable. No torture porn. No outlet for comedy at the moment. Unscripted TV that requires a conversation. Scripted TV serial only, prefer an underlying IP, a unique hook, the rest requires a conversation. Animation, strong existing underlying IP and platform, Bail outs, that requires a conversation. Non-Entertainment such as technology, real estate commercial or development, natural resources, oil & gas, ... best to just give us a call or email.

Kathryn, currently I have a back log of scripts especially from the recent ScriptFest, where I received 100+ pitches. You'll need to request a RVU submission release form by email. Our legal team requires it prior to reading any materials. If it's not shoot ready, free of clichés, fresh twist and doesn't feel derivative, please wait to submit till it's ready. We will always be doing more films. Having said that, I've had one that came in unpolished with money and a wonderful hook recently so we're considering the possibility of fixing it. But you get the idea.

Mark Gunnion

Welcome, James, very interesting bio. RVU is not associated with Universal Studios, is it?

James Ganiere

Correct Mark, although I know quite a few folks there.

Mark Saltman

Hi James and welcome :)

Marlin Adams

yeah, anything associated with Finance is "rare" for the rest. Welcome!
