Introduce Yourself : Hello by Deneb Catalan

Deneb Catalan

Hello

I'm Deneb, and I've been following Stage32 since 2020. I absolutely love the vibrant community it has built! My journey in the industry began in Hawaii, and I've been involved in different roles ever since. I still remember landing my first extra gig on Magnum PI back in the 80's. Over the years, I've had the privilege of working both in front of and behind the camera, experiencing the magic of filmmaking firsthand. Now, I call Portland, Oregon my home. 

Today, I am fortunate to be working as a producer on multiple projects, each in different stages of development. It's a fulfilling role that allows me to contribute my skills and passion to the industry I adore. I feel incredibly grateful for my community and the invaluable resource that Stage32 has been throughout my career. 

Thank you for all the amazing work you do, and please continue to inspire and support aspiring filmmakers like me!

Hi Deneb Catalan, thanks for sharing and I'm so glad you're loving Stage 32! Do you have any upcoming projects you can tells us about that you're looking forward to?

Maurice Vaughan

Great to meet you, Deneb Catalan. How's Portland so far? Does it get a lot of rain?

Deneb Catalan

Great meet you too Maurice Vaughan and Emily J! First off, Portland has its fair share of rain every year, currently we've been getting lots of clear skies and sun shine. :)

As for projects, we currently have three in pre-production under our company TRIPLE 8 PICTURES: VIOLINS (Film: Suspense/Crime/Drama), DEATH LOTTO (Series: Sci-fi

/Thriller) and PERPETUATE (Series: Sci-fi/Horror). They're listed on IMDb Pro at the moment, working on polishing up final drafts for VIOLINS and DEATH LOTTO, but with the writers strike, its been put on hold for good reasons. At the mean time we've been focused on marketing and storyboards on all three projects which is a crucial part of the development process. I'm holding back on details due to contract with our Executive Producers until we get the green light. PERPETUATE's second season is being outlined and written by myself and my two creators Anthony Garcia and Tory Sweeney. We're not professional writers (yet) so we could flesh out all the ideas and have them ready for our writing team when they're available. We are loving the process and grateful to already have investors willing to make these happen for us. Release dates will be Fall of 2024 and 2025. We're planning to shoot PERPETUATE first, late 2023 in Oregon and Washington State.

Cool, Deneb Catalan. I like when it rains, especially days when it rains for hours. I wanna see all three projects just off the titles!
