Happy to join a creative community like this. I’m an actress but mainly producer since I’m a UCLA grad in film Producing. Worked in Hollywood for seven years in production and as a talent agent. Familiar with all stages of film production. Now I’ve returned to my home country Romania Transilvania and opened my own production company called Filmropa the only company in the country that is also familiar with the Hollywood entertainment system and union policies. For any production services, location scouting equipment rentals, casting, consulting regarding a possible production in the country don’t hesitate to contact . All the best and thank you!

I'm Jackie Chimutashu and I'm an author with one published book so far, entitled The Great Enclosure. I write African Epics with a touch of mystery. I'm glad to be a member of Stage 32 and I'm hoping to become a screenplay writer one day. My latest novel to be published in July this year is entitled, Nature's War. Hope to meet more writers on Stage 32.

Good evening Everybody :)

Midnight passed, the Introduce Yourself weekend ended (at least in my time zone), but I would like to finally introduce myself, especially that few kind persons already invited me to their networks, so I want to share some more info about me.

My name is Ursula, I am from Poland, I live in Warsaw. I am a movie nerd and aspiring writer since childhood. My love to cinema started typically: I collected passionately the photos of favourite movie stars :) And I started writing short stories when I was around eight. As I grew older, my interest in movies has become more and more serious and finally found its turning point, when I completed screenwriting classes.

I love all genres of movies, from all countries and cultures - that is why Stage 32 enticed me, as it is a huge community for creative people from all around the world, gathered around the idea and love for movies and filmmaking.

I decided to join as I would like to connect with like-minded people and collaborate with them as a screenwriter or writer of other text forms. Due to personal issues I am not yet able to give all my free time to writing, but I am aiming already to "find my tribe", exchange ideas and find inspirations among Creative Army (I liked this term very much!).

For more info I invite You to check my bio and to my network :)

All the best! Glad to meet You :)

I’ll start off gently, my name is Safa, as of now I’m 15. I grew up in a community that made me feel safe despite our differences as they stuck to their cultural traditions. To be realistic, I will never be able to become an actress, no matter how much I dream of it. Growing up in a Muslim home has not forbidden me physically, but it would be viewed as inappropriate and somewhat “shameful” especially for a girl, like me in other peoples’ eyes. My parents always wanted me to be a doctor but as a kid I would dance in the living room recklessly knocking down every glass on the table because I wanted to be in performing arts. My passion died down tremendously until I started daydreaming since the age of 12 about different movies I would direct and envisioning the scenes in my head. You ever heard of maladaptive daydreaming? Hours on edge constantly thinking of scenes, writing out the dialect of the characters on my notes app, deciding what music would fit the scene and play it in my head while imagining it. Today I joined stage32 in hopes for someone to reach out and say “Yes, you’re 15 and young but you could write my film and we could daze off into the sunset with people wanting more.” I don’t see the film industry as just a way for people to make you famous, I don’t see it as art either, but I see it as freedom. I cannot express my own teenage dream in the every day world, so envisioning it hours everyday is my idea of youth alone. Though you may stay in your room, even if it’s all day, your life is still a movie and you have written it subconsciously, just like how screen writing is, without realising you are creating and writing life. I don’t know if this will tell you enough about me as an introduction, but I have so many ideas, stories for the young and the old, take it as a teenager of age, and take the risk of listening to someone with no experience. I’d like to say I get good grades in school, but people will always criticise your level of intelligence but never question your creativity. I’m always open to advice from other writers, whether screenwriting gives me fame or not, I don’t care, I just want others to watch my envisions with me without the guilt of keeping my creativity just to myself. To be honest I’m young and I don’t know what I want to do in the future, I want a taster of everything and if I enjoy it, then I’ve made my own direction.

Netflix start with dvd’s so, never give up and good luck and Stage 32 l thank you for your the flexibility of your platform and it’s really useful and smart
