Introduce Yourself : The choice & the lepidopteran by Nathan Waire

Nathan Waire

The choice & the lepidopteran

Greetings Everybody!!!

I missed the last few Introduce Yourself weekends but now I am back. I had and still have many projects that I am working on and some to which are near completion!! Being a fire sign (LOL), I will only talk to you guys about the projects that I am starting to see if you'll join me in some way!!! First, there's THE CHOICE! It is going to be my first feature length film and it is tentatively slated to start at the end of this year. It has a GoFundMe page that can be found by going to the site and typing my stage name, Nathan Zen-Sapien. It's a theological parody and the reading for it used primarily actors associated with Stage 32!!!! Please donate anything from $1 to a million... I ain't picky (LOL)!!!!

The next project that has actually already started is my third book on Amazon called THE LEPIDOPTERAN. It is a sci-fi/fantasy/comedy screenplay that has been turned into a book by Dizzy Emu Publishing!!! Go to any Amazon site in the world and type in my name Nathan Zen-Sapien and the Kindle as well as paperback versions of the book will appear. It's free to read if you have Kindle Unlimited and just like the previous project there was a reading of the script using primarily Stage 32 actors! FYI - Both readings can be seen on this site as well as on my YouTube channel: Nathan099

So, if you can, PLEASE DONATE OR PICK UP A COPY OF MY BOOK!!!!

To quote a good colleague of mine "I LOVE YOU TO LIFE!!!" and let's do this ish!!!

Nathan Waire welcome back to the party!

Maurice Vaughan

Great to see you at IYW, Nathan Waire. Freaky poster!

Nathan Waire

Brian Smith YEAH MY MAN!!! IT'S ON!!!!

Richard "RB" Botto

Back and busier than ever, Nathan Waire! I'm curious, how did you source the Stage 32 actors for your table read.

Nathan Waire

WOW!!! Richard "RB" Botto The MAN, The Myth, The Legend HIMSELF!!!! I did it 2 ways. One, several of the Lounge Administrators including Maurice Vaughan told me about how to post in the jobs section of this site!!! Two, I encouraged all the actors that I used for my readings to join Stage 32!!! The second one really worked to my favor because I sort of knew what they were capable of, HOWEVER, I got several HIGHLY EXPERIENCED ACTORS from the jobs section and vetted who to use through Zoom and Phone call auditions!!!!

THANKS SO MUCH FOR ASKING, Richard "RB" Botto!!!! YOU ARE THE COOLEST!!!!

Richard "RB" Botto

You humble me, my friend. Thank you for all the positive vibes.

That's an exceptional approach. So smart. I often hear from writers from non filmmaking hotbeds lamenting that they can't find actors in their area to do a table read. I always encourage them to get on 32 and source to do one through Zoom. You have now proven to others that it can happen.

Have no doubt it was an invaluable exercise.

Tom Lapke

Welcome Nathan. Your poster is horrifying.

Nathan Waire

Richard "RB" Botto right now I feel like Eddie Murphy from Bowfinger when he looked into the camera and exaggeratedly whispered "AWESOME!"

Richard "RB" Botto

Hahaha Nathan Waire. Literally made me laugh out loud. Coincidentally, I just watched that movie again a couple of months back. It's great.

Nathan Waire

Maurice Vaughan &Tom Lapke thanks for the poster comment. It's a dark theological take on Heaven and Hell so scary should entice more curiosity in the project!!!! I'll tell my actor friend HB Gibson who was in both readings thanks for creating the poster concept that I told him!!!

Maurice Vaughan

You're welcome, Nathan Waire. Yeah, the poster will definitely get more people curious about your project. I remember being at the table read. I see HB on Twitter/X. He's a nice guy. He did a great job on the poster!

Ashley Renee Smith

Welcome back, Nathan Waire!! I love that you utilized the Stage 32 job board and our wonderful members to put your table read together. That’s awesome!

Mark Deuce

Great to meet you Nathan Waire and the poster made me jump, lol. Best of luck on your project!

Nathan Waire

Ashley Renee Smith thanks for the compliment... Nothing is impossible once you put your mind to it!!! And Maurice Vaughan HB is truly a nice guy... You'll definitely meet him someday!! Mark Deuce glad you like the poster! LOL!!!

Nick Phillips

Congrats on all of this Nathan Waire! It's so great that you leaned into the Stage 32 community to help with your table read, that's what it's all about.
