We are all trying to find our way through this roller-coaster maze of the business of Hollywood- and like most of you, I am looking for guidance. For direction and understanding, for a light in the fog AND most importantly, to know if I am on the right track, or the wrong one. So like most of you, I too dove into the Exec Consulting waters:) And at first I thought I was drowning, or at least, stuck. Each consult yielded greater and greater clarity to the point where I needed REAL business answers: where was I professionally and what can I do with my ever-revising script. This is when I met MICHAEL BLUTSTEIN. As with EVERY Stage 32 Exec, Michael was both kind and professional and 100% supportive but where Michael excelled was in giving real-time analysis of both the market AND HOW I FIT INTO THAT MARKET. It was the first call where I had clarity not just with improving my script (which he did)..but WHAT I COULD ACTUALLY DO WITH IT. This wasn't a pie-in-the-sky promise, but an honest assessment of my skills as a writer, how far I had come AND..how much more work lie ahead of me. I think some writers hope for that magical SALE moment where your script is whisked away to some imaginary DreamWorks and you're left with a check in your hand. This isn't what Mike left me with and it isn't what most writers really want to hear; that to get to that next level requires EVEN MORE WORK, DETERMINATION and SWEAT. What Mike gave me was the TRUTH. That I have something that can sell, and now I need to work just as hard to bring it to MARKET. It was without a doubt, the best Exec consult I've had yet. I have an open door with most of the execs I met with and I now have a roadmap for what to do NEXT. And i will absolutely be calling Mike for round two. Thanks to everyone for reading this, for Stage 32 staff and good luck writing!!
