Arnold Salewa is an author based in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, with a burgeoning passion for screenwriting. I'm embarking on my journey as a beginner screenwriter, eager to translate my storytelling abilities into compelling visual narratives. Also interests span a wide array of genres, including Drama, Romantic Comedy, Action, Comedy, and Historical stories, with a particular focus on developing short films and books.
Committed to building a strong foundation, I'm dedicated to mastering story structure, character development, and authentic dialogue.My immediate goal is to complete at least one short screenplay, actively studying screenwriting techniques, seeking constructive feedback from peers, and exploring opportunities to submit my work to beginner-friendly contests. I'm focused on consistent practice and continuous learning to evolve into a confident screenwriter.

Stage 32's next Community Open House is Dec 29th (www.stage32.com/education/products/stage-32-s-december-community-open-ho...). It's free to attend. It'll also help you navigate Stage 32 and connect with creatives and industry pros.

I suggest adding a profile picture of yourself. People will feel more comfortable networking and collaborating with you if they know what you look like. And if you have a picture, your profile will show up when someone searches for you. You can upload a picture by clicking the gear symbol in the top right-hand corner and selecting “Edit profile” in the drop-down menu, then clicking the red button underneath your location and choosing "Update profile picture."
