Thanks! I have a few screenplays that I was planning to put into production, one was planned for this year, but of course then a global pandemic happened -- so all of that is on hold. One is a horror-comedy and another is a darker drama. How about you? What projects are you working on?

Welcome! Fellow horror writer here based in NYC area. I dig your short 'Keep Me Close'. Has an eerie 'Creepshow' vibe to it!

Hey, Christopher Schrack! My name is Kay, I'm the Community Manager here at Stage32. Nice to meet you! I was looking over your profile, but you don't have much there. Tell me about yourself!
DC?! My hometown area! PLENTY of horror nuts there, and not just because of Georgetown LOL! I'm not a fan myself, but I have a great sense of pacing for suspense and a soft heart for underdog writer/directors, so I've produced my fair share of horror shorts - go figure! Are you doing anything else for a day job? I always recommend being on set as often as possible, you'll meet a lot of other crew and filmmakers - that's how I met my 48-hour team there in DC!
I'm sure you've already discovered the Screenwriting Lounge (https://www.stage32.com/lounge/screenwriting), but I would love for you to post in the Filmmaking Lounge (https://www.stage32.com/lounge/directing) about your experience directing - maybe the challenges you've faced and how you overcame them in a town that is not overwhelmingly film-friendly? There are also some great conversations happening in the Cinematography Lounge that I'd love to get your two cents on: https://www.stage32.com/lounge/cinematography
Enjoy exploring the lounges, and don't forget to comment and respond to others’ posts, too! It's the best way to really connect!

Hi Kay, nice to meet you too! I’m a freelance videographer and editor in my day job, and had been getting more on-set work as a DP this year until the pandemic hit. Thanks for recommending the lounges, I’ll be sure to check them out and try to post there as well.
