Filmmaking / Directing : Just Wrapped and Passing on My K…

Just Wrapped and Passing on My Key to Success

Hey, HEY, fellow Stage 32 Filmmakers! After wrapping production on the most epic proof-of-concept short film I've ever produced - driving, stunts, SAG actors, child actors, filming on location including accommodations, AND building a set - I had to take the opportunity to unpack the relationship that started it all. Yes, the director/producer, Garrett Adams, and I are creative partners, but that started with networking on Stage 32.

I just published the first in a series of blogs today - if you haven't read it yet, I'd love for you to check it out and share it:

AND the message I hope you take from it is simply this - no matter who it is, family, friend, or industry associate, if you haven't spoken to them in a minute, reach out! If you've only ever met in the lounges, invite them for a Zoom date! If you've been Zoom meeting for a while, find a small way to level up to show them your love and appreciation. The relationship I talk about in my blog today came to fruition from "one step at a time" mentality, which I think is especially important for directors looking for producers!

With that said, I'll be diving back into my script revision and then emailing a BUNCH of peeps LOL

I hope you all have a great weekend, and let me know how your outreach goes!

Cheers!
