About this meetup

Hey, Phoenix-based creators! This month, I’m hosting our fifth in-person Stage 32 Meetup here in Phoenix, Arizona! We had such fun last month and everyone wanted to do it again so: Let's come together in person on Thursday, March 21st! While this is a great opportunity to network and meet new local creative professionals, this is also the best time to check in with community members you have already met and support each other. Join me, Suzanne Bronson, for an evening of fun and conversation with your fellow directors, screenwriters, producers, actors, cinematographers, editors, and other industry creatives at O.H.S.O Brewery in Gilbert. This event will last from 6:00 pm- 9:00 pm. Don't wait to network! Direct Message attendees NOW to see if you want to continue the conversation in person! Finally, Be sure to post pictures of yourself at the event and use the hashtag #iamStage32. Don't forget to tag @stage32 @stage32scripts, @RBwalksintoabar, @bronsonsuzanne on your social posts so everyone knows where the #Stage32 party is! If you're interested in volunteering for the event, helping check people in and handing out nametags, please message me.

Avoid These Crowdfunding Mistakes on Social Media!

One of the more popular requests we get here at Stage 32 is information on best practices for promoting a crowdfunding campaign on social media. Recently, spurred on by the sheer amount of crowdfunding spam he was receiving on his Twitter and Instagram accounts, our CEO, RB, republished his popular Medium article: 5 Ways You Are Incorrectly Using Twitter to Promote Your Crowdfunding Campaign. Although the article singles out Twitter, these mistakes and ill advised practices are common across all social media platforms, including right here on Stage 32! This is not only a must read for those embarking on a campaign, but involves best practices for networking, relationship building and branding as well. We ask that you please recommend the article on Medium by clicking on the heart button at the bottom of the piece, and share this information with other film creatives you feel could benefit from the content. And as a reminder, you can follow RB on Medium, and on Twitter and Instagram at @RBwalksintoabar Enjoy!
