My name is Barry Silver and I’m an LA-based Director, Editor, Producer, occasional Writer, and a noobie to Stage 32. I'm currently looking to connect with other producers and casting agents to collaborate with on my next feature film.
Are you a writer? Comedy is my drug of choice, and I am always on the lookout for good, laugh-out-loud feature scripts to direct. I welcome any opportunities to collaborate with writers.
More about me? I have a long history of editing comedy and drama for both film and television and I recently directed a short film called HUGE FAN ( https://www.barrysilverfilms.com/huge-fan-the-movie ).
Let me know what you're interested in and perhaps we can find common ground?

Hey, Barry Silver! My name is Kay, I'm the Community Manager here at Stage 32. Nice to meet you and welcome to the community! If you'd like to learn more about myself and the Stage32 Team, we have an intro blog: https://www.stage32.com/blog/Meet-the-Stage-32-Team
Ooo, I like that drug of choice! What would you say your top three comedies are? My family and I often watch The Bird Cage for our guffaws.
I'm sure you've already discovered the Filmmaking Lounge (https://www.stage32.com/lounge/directing), but I'd love for you to jump in the Producing Lounge as well! https://www.stage32.com/lounge/producing
Keep in mind that these lounges are like the VIP Filmmaker's Lounges at Film Festivals, so this is where you can meet the people doing the work, get advice on anything you're working on, and/or give back to those who may need advice. We're a very supportive and encouraging community! I think you'd also enjoy my intro blog post on how to engage with the Stage32 Community:

Enjoy exploring the lounges, and don't forget to comment and respond to others’ posts, too! It's the best way to really connect! And, of course, feel free to reach out at any time. Cheers!

I sent you my info and references, as well as a summary of my full feature comedy, to your website at barrysilverfilms.com. It's ready to go, and timely!
Jon, thanks for reaching out! I'll take a look at it this week and let you know my thoughts.
