Introduce Yourself : Hey creative folks! by Mark Violi

Mark Violi

Hey creative folks!

Happy to meet and connect with writers, actors and filmmakers. I've written over 10 features with several options and development deals. My feature From Bedside is currently in pre-production. I've also had two stage dramas produced and I'm a member of SAG-AFTRA.

Good morning from Vancouver! Wow, I worked my my last day of eight yesterday leading to my four days off now, then anxiously stayed up to pitch at 3am (PDT) to a UK and German executive here on Stage 32. I have been actively pitching to almost any executive that I can, even those not specifically looking for what I am pitching, because the feedback I am getting is, in a word, amazingly invaluable and helps me to continue to strengthen my pitch and overall idea and it is such an incredible and rewarding experience, even if you get the all to often "pass", but hey, some requests for follow up or additional meetings has started to happen. I also shot a proof of concept, or rather an introduction to the subject / character / star of my documentary THRILL SEEKER.

Thrill Seeker tells the story of Peter H. Kent's rise from adrenaline addict

to major Hollywood stuntman and body double for Arnold Schwarzenegger,

starting with 1984's The Terminator and spanning an incredible 14 films over 13 years with the action superstar.

Thanks for reading. Any documentarians interested in chatting about the medium further? Shoot me a message or add me here on Stage 32.

Have a great Sunday everyone.

Congrats on the options and development deals, your script "From Bedside" being in pre-production, having two stage Dramas produced, and being in the SAG-AFTRA! So many congrats! Haha "Pet Project" sounds like it's going to be funny just from the title.

Mark Violi

Thanks Maurice Vaughan we keep plugging away, right?

Maurice Vaughan

You're welcome, Mark Violi. Yeah, gotta keep plugging away. Did Fred Goldstein help you with your other scripts and stage Dramas?

Mark Violi

No, Maurice Vaughan , there's no other collaborations with Fred. In the case of From Bedside, I wrote the script based on his book.

Maurice Vaughan

Oh ok. I see, Mark Violi. "From Bedside" sounds like it's going to be a great movie. And I just saw you're on Script Revolution.
