Hi Vishaal Desai - very nice to meet you. Hope you're doing well and glad that you're with us on Stage 32. What genres do you write?

Vishaal Desai

Nice to meet you as well Leonardo Ramirez 2! I've written a sci-fi feature script, a gangster comedy and a documentary feature and I'm currently working on a murder-mystery satire. I've also done a variety of genres in short films including horror.

Hey Maurice Vaughan I'm doing great! How are you?

Vishaal Desai I'm a scifi guy myself. Have written two feature scripts in scifi and one in fantasy. That gangster comedy sounds like fun! Love it that you're diverse!
