Screenwriting : Early breakthrough in '22 by Michael Eric Ross

Michael Eric Ross

Early breakthrough in '22

Just a note to the community sharing great news. My recent meeting with Will McCance of Ian Bryce Productions, a one-hour consultation, went very well. He recalled specifics about my WWII drama on the Red Ball Express, calling the script "page-turning" and "well-written." He was less praising, but no less insightful, about what the script needs for improvement. I've been working on rewrites to Acts I and II since then. 

I'm amazed at the things he saw and observed in my script that I never even imagined. The value of another viewpoint in this process, other experienced eyes, is inestimable. This is for me what makes Stage 32 such a valuable asset: its proven ability to find industry executives like Will, ready to make a difference in creative lives.

The upshot: After discussing the script in granular detail, Will requested my pitch deck for the project, and said he would be taking the current script to his boss, Ian Bryce, for a looksee. And he wants to see the rewrites as well. 

It's my second great meeting in as many months, via Stage 32. Are we on a roll? We are on a roll. Thanks S32, for all your help

This is tremendous Michael Eric Ross! Congratulations on your success! Will is a fantastic executive and he is so supportive of Stage 32 screenwriters. And you can't get with a better producer than Ian Bryce Productions! They have produced for the biggest Directors in the business - including Spielberg and Michael Bay.

Michael, I know that we chatted about this already, but I am truly just so thrilled that your call with Will went so well. He's so insightful, isn't he?

And what HUGE news that he wants to read your rewrites!

So so so happy for you :)

Hi everyone -- Sorry to be so long getting back to you (rewrites, life, etc.) And many thanks to all. I'll let the S32 community know what happens. Onward!

Hey Congratulations! That is wonderful. Good luck to you.

Dan MaxXx

cool, cool, but you're writing for free for them (company or individual). And make sure you own 100% of rewrites, especially since you are using their/his notes.

Maurice Vaughan

That's great, Michael Eric Ross. How are the rewrites since you posted this?

Molly Peck
