It's Introduce Yourself Week!
I'm Geoff, the Director of Development here at Stage 32.
I oversee our contests, script services, and basically spend my days connecting our 1.3 million members with industry opportunities. Think of me as your behind-the-scenes champion, constantly working to get your projects in front of the right people.
Before Stage 32, I was at Coverfly helping create opportunities for thousands of writers and scouting specs for major companies (including that record-breaking Netflix sale "I Am Not Alone"). Before that, I was grinding it out at Paramount, New Regency, Lionsgate, and later at Imagine Entertainment and ICM Partners.
I've got degrees from New York Film Academy, Pepperdine, and UCLA's producers program, plus some Telly and ADDY awards collecting dust on my shelf.
There's nothing quite like that moment when a writer gets their breakthrough call. I've been fortunate to help facilitate those connections, and honestly, it never gets old.
Fun fact: I've written episodes for Snapchat's SOLVE - one of their first scripted series ever - and worked on an animated series for Russia's biggest production company. The entertainment industry really is global!
So that's me! Now it's your turn - drop your intro below and let's connect. I read every single one and genuinely love learning about the incredible talent in our community.
Also, the team and I are always happy to help, provide career guidance and executive recommendations at Success@stage32.com

We may have interacted when I was at Coverfly? I've been here for 6 months now :) Also, I'd recommend everyone to read my latest blog about the biz: https://www.stage32.com/blog/the-emmy-awards-and-the-rise-of-acquisition....

Hi Geoffroy, I think it is great what this platform does for people in the Industry at all levels. You and your team should be commended! Due to circumstances, I can't pay for any script/story analysts, but I use this platform as motivation to keep me writing. I may never be read or published, but thanks to you and your team for keeping me motivated .
