Introduce Yourself : Peter Blandino 'Creator Of Umbral" by Peter Blandino

Peter Blandino 'Creator Of Umbral"

’m excited to share UMBRAL, an original science fiction series I’ve been developing—born from a lifelong passion for storytelling, culture, and the exploration of the unknown.

UMBRAL follows a young protagonist as he begins to uncover hidden dimensions that exist alongside our reality. What starts as a personal mystery slowly unfolds into a much larger truth about consciousness, power, and the thin boundary between worlds. As the story progresses, the characters realize that some humans carry dormant abilities—forces they don’t yet understand, but are destined to awaken.

This is a character-driven sci-fi story with strong world-building, emotional depth, and a mythology designed to expand across multiple seasons. The series blends grounded human experiences with mystery, spiritual elements, and speculative science.

I’m currently developing the pilot and season arc, and I’m open to connecting with producers, writers, and creatives interested in original IP, sci-fi series, and bold storytelling.

If UMBRAL resonates with you, I’d love to connect and start a conversation.

UMBRAL sounds intriguing! You could post your pilot script on your profile when it's ready. Producers search profiles for projects. That and networking are how I sold four short scripts to a producer. Click the gear symbol in the top right-hand corner and select “Edit profile” in the drop-down menu. Scroll down to “Loglines” and click “Add/edit loglines” to the right of “Loglines.” You can also post your script on your profile this way: www.stage32.com/loglines (near the top where it says “Add a Logline”)

And reach out to the Success Team at success@stage32.com. Geoff and his team can help you connect with producers, executives, and more.

Hi Peter Blandino, welcome! I’m Ashley, Head of Community here at Stage 32, and UMBRAL sounds like a beautifully ambitious piece of sci-fi. As you continue developing the pilot and season arc, I think you’d get a lot out of spending time in the Screenwriting Lounge (https://www.stage32.com/lounge/screenwriting) to talk craft and structure. If you’re thinking about expansion and IP strategy, the Transmedia Lounge (https://www.stage32.com/lounge/transmedia) could also be a great fit.
