Hey good citizens of the world! I am new to using Stage32, having said that, I have a lot of catching up to do on my 3 year old account! A little about me. I am an actor, director, writer, producer and actvisit! I have been at the acting game for almost 18 years! With that much time in sacrificing for my art I thought I may have accomplished more in the mainstream, more of a "working" actor like many good friends I have had the pleasure to cross paths.(who remain nameless because I am not a name dropper). However I have accomplished ALOT, giving that I have always been an out actor and I have been fortunate to give voice to the voiceless. That's me and that's what I do and I love that I do it. My first short film Hero Mars where I debut as director, writer, producer has won many awards. Two I will mention. because they became academy award qualifiers a year after my win.: Bronze Lens award and Reel Sisters of diaspora. However I did not do so well on my distribution. That was my fault and also I feel Hero Mars was done with the purpose of presenting a (impressive)calling card as a potential director of my next film. Yet I could and should have done better. The 3 years I've been skipping my Stage 32 notifications I've been working on my feature film. The script is written and I am seeking a producer. The feature is epic in story and it has a lot of heart. I know how to tell it. I have given the script to Trumpers to read and well they were impressed and they want the film to be made. I have also given the script to anti-trumpers, lesbians, people of color.. they too were impressed and beg the same. I have every reason to believe I wrote an American story.
I am here to network and hopeful attract some fearless bad ass creatives to help me make this film. My writing mentor was 2011Nichol fellowship awardee. I understand this weekend is about getting to know each other. That is something I put high value on. We have to work together and I want to support you just as I wish to be supported. More of who I am can be found on my website Skylercooper.net designed to tell you precisely what I want you to know. Therefore feel free to reach out anytime I am happy to be off script and I am not afraid to fail ( I don't like to!) but that's how I get better! Pure love! Skyler
