Hideeo Ho all you Stage 32-ers

Father. Husband. Believer. Filmmaker. Corp video producer. Podcaster. Not always in the right order. "But I'm trying Ringo. I'm trying real hard..." Oh, and I used to be semi-professional Lindy Hopper. :)

@elaine - Ha. You actually can. If you're a full blown pro, teach and travel the world. When I did it, it was just a group of us who were good at it and did it for fun. We performed at Carnation Plaza...

Hi Ron. Welcome

Speaking of the Lindy Hop, I would have loved to have been alive during the Harlem Renaissance, or the Jazz Age.

Is it good/bad for a screenwriter to blow his/her trumpet???

Can you sell what you have without telling how good it is (blowing trumpet stuff)?

True Brian.

Jorge J Prieto

When a creative can write something that can only come from them. When they are courageous enough to search for stories to which they have a real personal connection, that's when I know they're good. Agreed, Brian? Come on, say yes, brother.

Conrad Ekeke

Yes Jorge. Very true and I've experienced what you say. Fiona, I think that's a good strategy that can get us the attention we most times want but it's true that it's not easy but we must not also give up.

Brian Shell

Jorge and Conrad... agreed. I think the main thing is to express ourselves in a way which expresses our Unique Voice while expressing the tale we hope to tell... with our own unique 'flavor'

Conrad Ekeke

Brian, that's an advice I wouldn't neglect ever. It's a summary of everything that makes a true writer and we hope we all work in that path as you've put it. Thanks man :D

Success Stories on Pitches and Distribution

Moving from the creative to the marketing stages is where I am at with my passion project. I'd love to hear about both the successful and unsuccessful attempts at pitching animations and getting them out to a larger audience. And yes, making some money along the way would not hurt.

Hey John, this is Beth from the Stage 32 team. I just wanted to let you know I moved your post from Animation to Introduce Yourself, as it fits much better there. Let me know if you have any questions, and all the best to you!

John Marc Bimonte

Thanks Beth. I thought I did that myself already. A lot of balls in the air today. Thanks for taking the time to help!
