HI everyone. I love "Find your courage."

Andrés Anton Dura

Join from Netherlands (althought I am Spanish). Really inspiring and I am really jealous of those that will go to South Africa!!!

Amanda Toney

@lindafrothingham - I loved "find your courage" too! Andres -great to have you here from the Netherlands - we have a great Stage 32 community there!

Jill A. Hargrave

Great webinar! Lots of good insights. Christopher Lockhart is a hoot and I love his bit about "Courage." As I'm a night owl, I don't think the South African Safari will work for me as I see it's an early start in the morning to see the animals. Looks like Stage 32 does this every year, so I can't wait to hear about the 2022 destination.

Vasco Saraiva

I missed it. Will it be available on replay?

Martha Caprarotta

Loved the answers to Amanda Toney's opening question about what's most important to a successful screenplay or pilot. Answers: The first 5 pages. The setup of the script. The idea (is it right for this medium? or better as a novel?). A Second Act that works. Followed by so many other great tips and advice that I couldn't write fast enough to capture them all. Will have to watch the replay to capture those I missed! Thanks Amanda Toney for eliciting pearls of wisdom from these awesome panelists!

Amanda Toney

Thank you for the kind words Martha! I'm glad the questions were helpful for you from the panelists!

Amanda Toney

And if you have any questions about the Safari you can contact Eve Hayes who is coordinating the program at info@scriptoafrica.com.

Eve Hayes

Thanks @Amanda Toney for so slickly moderating the webinar! If a webinar can be as amazing as this one was, imagine how much fun we gonna have and knowledge there is to gain in Sept. in South Africa. Happy dance doesn't even cut it. :)
