Agustin Goodwin: Actor, director and documentary filmmaker in Los Angeles, California.

Setting up a Los Angeles locals filmmakers club meetup. All are welcome. With the strikes freezing the industry for union members, let us not sit on our hands and wait until the leaders decide our fate. Indie filmmaking is (as far as I can tell) the truest form of expression through the film medium. Making art for the sake of artistic expression. “Cinéma Vérité”. Google it if need be! Whether you’re a writer/director/producer/actor/etc. let us get together with like minded individuals with the same goal and discuss creating our own stories without waiting for the go ahead from the gatekeepers.

Hello Stage 32 family! God bless all of you for coming on this platform to progress and grow as filmmakers. What a unique and beautiful space for us filmmakers to finally have. The ethos of Stage 32 is plum exceptional. Myself, am a 25 year old writer, director and editor living in Hollywood by way of Scottsdale, AZ. With a few short films underneath my belt I’m writing more scripts and looking to make more projects. And certainly looking to network, meet and form a correspondence with any local (or otherwise) filmmakers looking to connect! Feel free to reach out add/message me!

I'm writing a dual protagonist character driven short script. The female protagonist (a prominent singer) and her female support character (a prominent song writer) have been a lesbian couple/team for many years. I want the audience to understand that they are a lesbian couple but just see them as just every-day working folk. I don't want to delve into the lesbian issue at all.

What's the best way to write this picture?

Hi Agustin. 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
