Hello fellow creatives!
I hope your endeavors are going great, and the muses are with you.
I am in search of a producer who is "hungry" for a short script to produce. It is a psychological drama, four pages in length, one location, two characters. It deals with a physically and emotionally abusive relationship and has a clever twist in it.
I have a director right here on Stage 32 who loves the script and wants to shoot it in the southern LA area. Keeping the project in the Stage 32 family would be fantastic and inspiring.
I would love the opportunity to discuss the elements of the project further, budget, possible funding, casting, locations, etc. with any interested parties over zoom with the director present. A producer with access to a crew would be helpful.
You can direct message me here on Stage 32 if you are interested in discussing it further.
Thank you so much in advance for any consideration.
My best always to you all.
Are you also looking for a director? Who else is attached to it already? And is the script on your profile?

Hi Kay! I have a director right here on Stage 32. His name is Bohdan Turok. No one else is attached to this possible project. The script is on my profile.

Why cant you and director produce? It's 4 pages, one location, two actors. Get your hands dirty, sir. Even if you mess up, it's still better than sitting at home.

We're not sitting at home, Dan. We simply wanted to explore the option of tying a producer to the project, and so I put it out into the Stage 32 forum. If we don't get any responses, we will explore making the short film ourselves.

Didnt mean no disrespect, John... but it is 4 pages, one location, 2 actors. If you cant make this short with your director, then how are you gonna make features and tv shows for real income/career.

It's a valid point, Dan. Thank you. I know the length and content of the short script, because I wrote it. I'm not a director, filmmaker, or producer, I'm a screenwriter, so I won't be making feature films or tv shows. I'll leave that to people who know how to, and that's definitely not me. It's simply an option we're exploring for budget purposes. Since the director doesn't have his own crew with him in southern LA where he resides currently, we were looking for a producer with ties to a film crew as well.

Have u tried crowdfund? Considering it'll be a smaller budget, might be able to push it through...

Hi Jeffrey. Terrific. Let's connect.
So happy to see you taking massive action towards your short film. Quick question: what's the intended outcome? Fun? Festivals? Streaming platform? Have you pitched this in Stage 32 - or - posted it in the job section? You may get some bites and find what you are looking for. Good luck!
Hi Cherelynn! Nice to chat with you. It will be created to enter it into a few festivals this year and to debut here on Stage 32 at a future date. Thank you for your suggestion. It is helpful. I hope you are good and your current projects are moving along.
