Hailey Kathler: Storyboard artist in Vancouver, Canada.

Hi everyone. My name is Mauro. I live in the great white north, mid-western Canada. I've been writing for... almost a decade I guess (wow). Film Grad, working on my 14th screenplay now. I did a semester at New Line Cinema where I worked as a reader and helped the Head of Acquisitions with coverage and screening movies. That was an amazing experience.

I've recently wrote, directed, cut, and produced an indie feature comedy called The Pre-Drink now streaming on Amazon Prime. I'm really hoping this year is the year there's some real movement on my writing "career". I'm currently in a Screenwriting U class, and I did a one-on-one session with Richard Walter (UCLA Head of Screenwriting Dept. and Professor for over 40 years) on my latest screenplay, The Dessert Fork - which he loved and totally made my year hearing how much he liked it.

Would love to network and meet some other writers / directors who are making a real go of this career. Great to be a part of this community!

Hi everyone! My name is Hailey Kathler and I'm a Story Artist/Supervisor in the animation industry up in Vancouver, Canada! I've been working on show pitches for years but recently have started to really work on writing. I'm excited to be here and hopefully make a lot of connections with like-minded folks around the industry while I keep plugging away on scripts and pitch decks!

Hi Hailey. I'm RB, Founder and CEO of Stage 32. As a screenwriter, producer, actor and filmmaker, I know first-hand the challenges all creatives face finding work, landing representation, launching projects, securing funding and simply making the connections that will make a difference in their careers. That's why I created Stage 32. Since our launch in September of 2011, the community has grown to 1,000,000+ members representing every country on the planet making Stage 32 the social network uniquely populated with the most creative people on Earth.

This is a network for you, built by you. Like most things in life, the more you participate, the greater the rewards. We ask all new members to pay it forward by inviting 5 fellow creatives to the network and by spreading the word of Stage 32 through other social media sites such as Facebook, LinkedIn, and Twitter. The more creatives, the stronger the network. The stronger the network, the more opportunities.

Thanks for joining the movement and for being a part of this most talented and inspiring community. I very much look forward to your contributions.

Thanks, and have a creative day!

RB
