Introduce Yourself : Hello from the land of Oz by Jessica B

Hello from the land of Oz

Hi everyone, I'm an emerging screenwriter in Australia. I discovered Stage 32 thorugh the Netflix webinar with Chris Mack. Love cinema, love writing and hope to write and direct some day very soon! Hope to meet some interesting peeps here and spark some inspiration, even collaboration. <3 I'm working on a TV series (social issue drama) and arthouse/drama feature with lots of music...basically co-starring a violin! What's inspiring you at the moment?

Max Bjork

Hello! Wow it seems like a lot of people joined because of the Netflix webinar. I'm pretty bummed that I had to miss it.

Are you a violinist yourself? If you ever need a reader, let me know. I enjoy giving feedback :)

Jessica B

Thanks Bamutiire Jerry Edmund Jerry, yes so many strong female leads out there...and I'm seeing a lot of job ads fro scripts with them too! They must be on to something, ha!

Max Bjork indeed! I think you can watch back - I played back the recording (it was a free one too). And thank you, that would be great to have some feedback. I'm not a violinist but play some piano. Just love the instrument and potential for cinema. The character also just appeared that way, she is a violin virtuoso and composer.

John Mezes

Hi Jessica, Welcome to Stage 32! I'm currently working on my 4th script, a human drama about a loss creating an anger and hostility between two women, who have been friends for many years. Collaboration is a terrific tool and an excellent fuel for creating. Your premise for your feature sounds interesting.

Jessica B

Thanks Rohit Kumar and John Mezes . John, sounds like you have been busy! That sounds like an interesting premise too for the human drama, and friendship is such a good theme to explore.

Alexandre Ross

Welcome, I too had a chance to jump on the Netflix webinar and found it very insightful. good luck with your TV series looking forward to hearing more about your progress in the future.

Audrey Webb

Hi, Jessica! Hoping to get to your country one of these days! I have submitted a short film to competitions there, and if accepted, will be on my ways -- COVID permitting, of course!

Mora Rahgozar

Hi Jessica. It really was a great webinar, wasn't it? I'm also writing and developing something now... But since u are from Australia, I will randomly share this: I had the strangest dream about a month ago... So wonderfully weird and sweet - that I had to write it down. One day it will make for a great short I think - but the story takes place in Greenland, with Australien ties. I would have to get a scriptwriter from Australia on board for this one , as I could never write the narrative myself. Anyway, one day I'll tell you the story if you are interested;) Lets connect

Jessica B

Thanks Alexandre Ross , you too, it looks like you have worked on a great range of projects.

Audrey Webb that's so exciting! We have a great community here. If you are coming over feel free to reach out. I hope to make it to Austin in person once things settle down, it looks so good!

Mora Rahgozar wasn't it! Ahh that sounds great! For sure I'm intrigued to hear the story now. Thank you for sharing. :)
