What places have you all found to be helpful to have a presence on? Have you found any benefit to having pages on IMDB Pro, Linked in, Coverfly or any other places or even a person web site?

Bill Brock

I signed on to IMDB Pro last year in hope of sending out query letters to managers / producers and received a few bites. Unfortunately, nothing materialized. Most likely won't renew.

Leonardo Ramirez

By far, Stage 32 has given me the most connections and creative relationships. I've not tried Script Revolution yet but I hear good things. Considering trying IMDb Pro.

Dustin Richardson

I use Stage 32, ISA, and Coverfly :)

Hey All,

Sci-Family just got into the Semi-finalist of the Emerging Screenwriters Sci-Fi & Fantasy Screenplay Competition, Just got the email.

I think this TV Pilot has real potential, and I am actively looking for a producer in the UK or the US interested in developing the show.

Maurice Vaughan

Congratulations, Claudio Torres! Creative title! Sci-Fi plus family. :D

Claudio Torres

I just got the news. Sci-Family is advancing to the Quarterfinalist round of The Script Lab Screenplay Contest.

Maurice Vaughan

That's great, Claudio Torres! Congratulations!

How do you keep your flow?

Hi all. I'm fairly new to this community and I hate the idea of posting or asking about things you may have discussed a million times prior to this, so forgive me if you've heard it all before. I'm just wondering how you all keep your flow. Does formatting get in the way of your progress or have you...

Jerry Robbins

Good luck and keep us posted!

Spam, spam, spam

Hey fellow 32ers and admin...I am getting extraordinary amounts of posts from spammers on my posts. All with the same freaking links. Anyone else experiencing this? What's going on?

Wendy Appelbaum

Shellie Schmals this is the best platform - look at all the "famous" contacts we are making!

There's also the recruiting for the illuminati and they even have a gmail account :) Who knew?

Everywhere mate. I bought pitches off Stage 32 from the pitch section, nada! Tried talking to Producers in LA, the UK, Hollywood, Spain......they all look at me as if I'm lying or making something up....

Ok, Richard Harrison. I would definitely take Claudio Torres' advice. And keep pitching. There could be a "yes" out there....

The Entertainment Industry is NOT something you break into. Rather, it is an onion. You peel layers away as you approach the core of it. Sometimes the layers are bitter. Sometimes sweet. May you one day be at the heart of the onion. It sounds like you are on the right path - never give up.

Logline feedback

I am working on a new short and would like to receive feedback from the community for this logline:

"In a society controlled by a mighty A.I., a young professional gamer tries to find a way to fulfill his dream of working in an extinct job: a medical doctor."

Tim Bragg

This sounds futuristic, if it is I would open with set in list the year and the location. What is the plan to reach his goal of becoming a medical doctor?

Ewan Dunbar

If you can include what will get in his way and why it will raise the stakes and demonstrate why this goal is important (the AI may have replaced medical doctors with its own).

Pamela White

Seems to be a start. Now just let the readers know a little bit more about the obstacles he faces and the consequences involved.

GENRE: Sci-fi
LOGLINE:

In a dystopian society where everyone is committed to pre-assigned jobs and controlled by a powerful A.I. entity, a young professional gamer tries to find a way to fulfill his dream of working in a forbidden field: medicine.

A new play commission - but... writer's BLOCK (?)

I never have writer's block. Never.

But this play... whoooooo boy it's a struggle.

I've been commissioned to write a play about my personal experiences with things that happened in my past. And while I normally speak openly about them (I'm an activist, I give talks, I organise outreach programs, I w...

Just the overview sounds very compelling. You must have an incredibly strong spirit. I would invite you to listen to my podcast which is linked on my bio. It has a lot of information about healing from trauma.

Claudio Torres

In my case, most of personal stuff leads to writer's block. I deal with it in two ways. One, I imagine a fiction character that had the same experience, and write about they. Second, I use automatic w...
