Stuart Newman's Lounge Discussions

Luck to you and hard work.

Hey, Stuart Newman, good to see you again! Have you checked out the Composing Lounge? Not all composers are screenwriters, but I have a feeling you'll find more than a few who dig punk and would be down to brainstorm: https://www.stage32.com/lounge/composing Of course, there is the Post-Production Lounge as well, and there are more than a few sound designers there: https://www.stage32.com/lounge/post_production

Hi what exactly do you need brainstorming? Is it turning a novel into a script? Or something else like story ideas? Or punk music in general? Sounds an interesting project and fun. The only punk album I once had was one featuring Sid Vicious "We're so pretty vacant." LOL Still am!

Hey, Stuart Newman! My name is Kay, I'm the Community Manager here at Stage 32. Nice to meet you! Definitely reach out to our Director of Script Services, Jason Mirch, who is excellent at matching projects with potential executives: J.Mirch@stage32.com

I’m sure you’ve already discovered the Screenwriting Lounge (https://www.stage32.com/lounge/screenwriting), but definitely reach out on the Acting Lounge (https://www.stage32.com/lounge/acting) for insight into characters, dialogue, and even when you want to generate interest in a virtual table read!

Have you finished writing the script, or do you still need feedback? Have you put together a pitch for it? If you need practice or feedback for that pitch, then I would highly suggest signing up for the Writer's Room. We host a weekly Pitch Practice session for peer feedback moderated by our Script Services Coordinator, Nick Assunto. As a WR member, you also get a discount on services AND because there is an extra Wednesday Webinar this month, you would also get a code for a free webinar. Seriously, can't recommend it enough! DM me for your first month free.

Enjoy exploring the lounges, and don't forget to comment and respond to others’ posts, too! It's the best way to really connect! And, of course, feel free to reach out at any time.
