Need help/Save a person
I need your help now more than ever, please help me share my ideas and gift them to Disney. Please help me, and maybe help to save me from feeling incomplete. Hear my passion, and my plea, and help me. Please make a difference in my life.
Well one is like a miniseries but could be a film special. I have a spec script/story outline.
Another is an idea I got inspiration from Disney's Once Upon a Studio, Remembering, and brought tears to my eyes when I thought of it.

Catfishing in the Stage 32 Network?
Hello. I'm just wondering whether Stage 32 has a policy for reporting suspected catfish scams. I'm fairly new here, and 2 people have already reached out to ask me to send them work. I wanted to report one today but am glad to see that this "person" has already been suspended. I guess this is a risk...

I was curious about the same thing. I have had several people approach me that look legitimate, only to see them suspended a couple of weeks later. I was wondering how to avoid this. I don't want to waste my time with scammers!

I think film censorship diminishes the vision of the writer or director to tell the stories they want to tell, Geoff Hall. I didn't know the UK had film censorship.
