Hi Everyone,
I'm new to this platform and would appreciate any tips on how to navigate it and get feedback on my project.
I'm a Canadian, currently based in Thailand after 15 years in South Korea where I produced several films including 2011 romcom Shotgun Love. I've also collaborated on screenplays and directed shorts. Since relocating to Thailand last year, I have developed a TV series called The Possessed. Set in Bangkok, it's a Thai language series in the neon-noir/ghost genre. A local studio is attached and we are currently preparing to pitch to streaming majors. I have a pitch deck, sizzle reel, and season one treatment ready to go. I'm looking for a Thai co-writer to collaborate with on the pilot script and subsequent episodes.
I'm not too sure how to proceed here, but it's great to join up and greet all of you! I'd love to hear more about your experiences with this platform. If anyone else is based in Bangkok it would be great to make your acquaintance and perhaps collaborate on some fun projects or share experiences over coffee.
Warm regards,
Nigel

No not mine, it looks like a new Malaysian film? I'm not with a streaming network yet. My project is in the development and pitching stage.

Billy Kwack The timing was right as I arrived during the early years of Hallyru (k-wave) and there were a lot of opportunities and venture capital. But the film industry has consolidated since then - and opportunities for foreign producers dried up, so I moved to Thailand.

Nigel Savio D'Sa cheers and best of great creative momentum!
The Stage 32 site rewards some patient time spent learning your way around the various components to figure out what might be your focal points;
While you network and perhaps find resources for pitching and connecting, you can also provision your Profile page with Links to your various Credits and corollary materials so that when you refer people to your Profile they will see and click through to those links,
you can also post screenplay loglines, synopsis and script PDFs there if you like.
Click on Script Services and other links above for drop-down menus leading to many different useful areas!
Consider checking out a subscription to The Writers' Room,
and when you view other members' Profiles you will see many variations of how people present their work.
