Sorry, I've looked through the emails, and I can't seem to find the "Pitch document for SOAR Fox Pilot & Series Document for MELROSE PLACE Pilot." Does anyone know where this is located? Thanks, in advance for any help.
Hi Brook. I don't think it's been shared yet.

I see that it arrived Elaine. I guess that I was just a little excited.
Is there a different Zoom link for today's session? I'm on the link for 7/22 and nobody is there. :(

Hi, everyone. I noticed, in todays class, that there was some interest in having/reading original pilot scripts. I have accumulated about 60 1 hour pilots (12 Monkeys to West Wing) and about 20 half hour scripts (30 Rock to Young Sheldon). All in PDF form. Anybody who wants copies is more than welcome.

Hi Brook. Amazing list. I'd love West Wing, Walking Dead, 13 Reasons Why and Buffy. In return, if you're working on a script, I'd be happy to read it and offer feedback. I'm also new to Stage 32 so if you've received two messages from me, I apologise. My email is ellie@elliewallace.co.uk

Brook Judge All those scripts sound interesting. I have a few to add like--Normal People, Euphoria, The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, and Succession. Perhaps we could put them all in a Dropbox link or Google Drive link. Much thanks.

Mr Smith, when I use the link, I can't seem to move any of my files into the Dropbox. I will admit, however, that I may be missing something as I am not particularly familiar with using the Dropbox format.

SORRY Brook Judge I had the G Drive on the wrong permission setting. Fixed now. Should work.

No problem, Mr Smith, I have now downloaded 48 files to your drop box. I have also taken the liberty of grabbing the Succession files. Thank you for your kindness.
