Introduce Yourself : Podcaster Pursuing TV by Candy Holladay

Candy Holladay

Podcaster Pursuing TV

Hey Y'all. I joined Stage32 as a way to learn more about how to pitch tv concepts and, of course, to meet y'all! My podcast, Life's a Holladay, has been growing quickly and since the pandemic even more rapidly - so I'm keen on bringing my other ideas to happy hungry audiences.

Lighthearted, lifestyle reality content is what I seek to create and host for networks like HGTV or retro programming like MeTV - perhaps even starting with something like sponsored interstitial segments.

I'm also a spokesperson, model and fashion stylist - if you have any needs in costuming or need a certain period or era sourced, let me know - scouting vintage is one of my specialties. Spa wishes, Candy

Hey, Candy Holladay! My name is Kay, I'm the Community Manager here at Stage 32. Nice to meet you and welcome to the community! Wow, congrats on your podcast - that's fantastic! Learning to pitch your TV? You've definitely come to the right place! There are TON of resources, but I would recommend with a couple of great webinars on pitching:

Developing Your Idea - https://www.stage32.com/webinars/Developing-Your-Idea-For-A-Production-C...

Also, when you want to start practicing your pitch, I would recommend trying the Writer's Room, as one of the benefits is we host weekly Pitch Practice sessions. You can either DM me or email Jason Mirch, our Director of Script Services, for a link for your first month free: J.Mirch@stage32.com

You can also search discussions in the Lounges: https://www.stage32.com/lounge Or start a post (like this one) in the Screenwriting Lounge (https://www.stage32.com/lounge/screenwriting) or Producing Lounge (https://www.stage32.com/lounge/producing) asking for insight.

Keep in mind that these lounges are like the VIP Filmmaker's Lounges at Film Festivals, so this is where you can meet the people doing the work, get advice on anything you're working on, and/or give back to those who may need advice. We're a very supportive and encouraging community! I think you'd also enjoy my intro blog post on how to engage with the Stage32 Community:

Enjoy exploring the lounges, and don't forget to comment and respond to others’ posts, too! It's the best way to really connect! And, of course, feel free to reach out at any time.

Thank you so much this was recommended to me and I can see by some of the other amazing members and the information so far, that this is going to be a lot of fun. But my purpose is to get "Factually Innocent into script form this is only part 1 and part 2 will soon be written and this is going to involve a worldwide Movement of Love, creating Peace around the world.
