Hi all, I've been on this site for a few years now but more like a passive member. So I'm using the Introduce Yourself Weekend to become a bit more proactive in the networking game which has never been my strong suit... Anyway, I trained as an actress and have done a few films a long time ago. I haven't done anything decent in a quite some time and would love to start getting back into films. At the moment I work mainly in theatre. I write, direct and act. I'm dabbling in screenwriting as well.

The best way to network here on Stage 32, is to put yourself out there by posting, commenting, and connecting with people from all over the world. The most effective networking comes from building genuine relationships over time. A great way to start is by checking out the Lounges where you can join discussions, pose questions that you may have, provide advice or insights, and share news/announcements that interest you.
