Introduce Yourself : Hello everyone! by Shawn Coleman

Welcome Shawn! Nice to meet you. Glad you're here.

Hey Shawn, nice to meet you! Would love to hear about you and what you're working on.

Welcome to the community, Shawn Coleman. Your bio says you mostly write Sci-Fi and Comedy. Have you written a Sci-Fi/Comedy?

Welcome to the community, Shawn!

Thanks, ya'll! This is a pretty cool network. Maurice Vaughan, yeah. I've written several. Those are definitely my genres and I personally believe that they go hand in hand. Particularly Black Comedies and "all or nothing" type adventures. Like Back To The Future with a Fight Club attitude. It's really fun. Stephen Folker, I just finished this awesome movie that took me forever to complete. I'm entering it in The Academy Nicholl Fellowship. I have much faith in it. Now I've shifted over to this other story that I've been wanting to develop for a while now.

You're welcome, Shawn Coleman. Cool. I tried to write Black Comedies, but I can't get the hang of that genre. Adventures are fun to write. BACK TO THE FUTURE with a FIGHT CLUB attitude. I'd watch that! My favorite Sci-Fi/Comedy is MEN IN BLACK. What's your favorite Sci-Fi/Comedy?

Hey man! Nice to meet you, Shawn!

Maurice Vaughan, Ah, shit! Men In Black rules! I think I just write adventures that organically come out funny and Sci-fi. I couldn't be serious to save my life. My favorite would have to be Back To The Future definitely and Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure! What kind of stories do you write?

Nice to meet you too, Bobby Foster!

Maurice Vaughan, You're a Horror screenwriter! That's the coolest! From what I read, you're pretty successful at it as well. Nicely done, man.

I mainly write Horror, Shawn Coleman. I mix it with other genres sometimes, like Comedy. Thanks. I get most of my jobs on Stage 32 by building relationships/networking.

That's awesome, Maurice Vaughan! If you have an amazing script that would make an amazing movie, how would you go about getting it made? A manager? A competition? What's the first step?

I write sci-fi/fantasy, specifically epic sci-fi/fantasy. The story I wrote is called "Sojourn: What Dreams Await."

I'd post the script in the Logline Section of my profile first, Shawn Coleman. Producers, directors, etc. search profiles for projects.

I read your bio, Steven Gamella, and relate to you all the way. I do it to live too.

Thanks, Maurice!

Congrats on finishing your movie!

You're welcome, Shawn Coleman. After posting my script in the Logline Section of my profile, I'd either query producers/directors/etc., look for script leads (in Stage 32's Job Section, on Twitter/X, etc.), or enter a script contest. Or I'd do all three at the same time.
