Introduce Yourself : Hello, everyone! by Kyler Lopez

Kyler Lopez

Hello, everyone!

My name is Kyler Lopez! I'm a start-up independent film maker who loves writing his own material and is currently going to school studying digital cinematography! I've also been doing performing arts in general since I was 8, having started with theater and dance, and have loved being in the entertainment industry! I love writing sci-fi, action, adventure, fantasy, comedies, and all different kinds of films! I've been doing film making since I was very young and am looking forward to putting these talents into the industry!

I have written many films that I've been looking at putting out their for production or for producing myself! They range from films that can be animated to live-action films across all different kinds of genres and I love pushing myself to try and either bring them to life or write a genre I've never touched! I'm really looking forward to seeing how this platform can help me network and move towards my goal of advancing in the filmmaking industry!

I am more than happy to share more about any of the projects that I have written or am planning to start on! I would love to connect with more of you!

Kyler, I love that you’re not limiting yourself to one genre or one side of filmmaking... that curiosity will serve you well! Since you’re studying cinematography while also writing and developing your own projects, spend some time in our Cinematography Lounge as well. There are working cinematographers there who can be a great resource as you develop your craft and start bringing these projects to life. Keep creating!

Welcome to Stage 32, Kyler Lopez, it’s awesome to meet you!

Your creative enthusiasm comes through so clearly, and I love that you’ve been immersed in performing arts and filmmaking since you were young. That kind of long relationship with the craft gives you such a deep well to draw from. Creators who grow up moving between different creative mediums often bring the most interesting instincts to their filmmaking work later, because they understand how performance, movement, story, and image all interact to shape an audience’s experience.

I also love that you’re writing across so many genres! Some writers find their voice by narrowing down over time, others find it by staying wide and letting the crossovers between genres shape something distinctive. Either path is valid, and it sounds like you’re in the exciting exploration phase where anything is possible.

A few resources to add to what our team has already shared:

- Be active in the Filmmaking, Producing, and Cinematography Lounges! With your goals as an independent filmmaker who both writes and wants to produce your own work, plus your active cinematography studies, these three Lounges are so valuable for you. Consistent engagement in each will connect you with fellow filmmakers, producers, and cinematographers who share your creative interests, and organic conversations often lead to real collaborations over time. You can find them here: https://www.stage32.com/lounge

- Reach out to our Success Team at Success@Stage32.com to tell them about your goals and where you are in your journey. Whether you’re focused on developing your existing scripts, exploring how to produce them yourself, or figuring out your next steps as you build your career, our Success Team is a wonderful team to loop in early. They can help connect you with Stage 32 Executives and resources tailored to your specific goals.

- Register for our next FREE Community Open House on Wednesday, September 23rd at 12pm PT. It’s a wonderful way to get a full overview of everything Stage 32 has to offer and direct access to me to ask any questions about how to make the most of your experience here.
