@RGriggs521 Rosemary, you are such a hardworking writer, always dedicating to getting better and putting yourself out there. I knew that you'd get your shot any day and finally it came. We are all rooting for you here! You are inspiring to all of us. Congratulations!

Join me on Monday where I’m speaking all about networking at a event with Stephanie Hazle Lyle, the President of the Board of Directors of Women in Film & TV Jamaica! eventbrite.com/e/wifti-x-wift… @Stage32 @RBwalksintoabar @WiftJamaica #creativityisuniversal

Thinking about attending Cannes this year—or even someday? Let’s be honest—Cannes can seem overwhelming. Over 12,000 industry professionals descend on the French Riviera each year. Nearly 4,000 projects are presented across 33 screening venues. And while the energy is electric, the stakes are high. Navigating that kind of landscape without a plan? It can leave even the most seasoned creatives spinning. That’s exactly why Stage 32 is hosting a FREE live webinar this Wednesday, March 26th with Guillaume Esmiol, Executive Director of the Marché du Film at the Cannes Film Festival (@mdf_cannes), moderated by our very own Managing Director Amanda Toney. This is your chance to hear directly from the person who oversees the entire Cannes market. Whether you’re attending for the first time, returning with a new project, or simply want to understand the landscape before diving in, this session will give you the clarity and strategy you need to make Cannes work for you! You’ll gain practical, real-world insights that will help you walk into Cannes with confidence and purpose. Guillaume will break down how to make the most of your badge, build a smart and efficient schedule, and approach networking and pitching with strategy and intention. He’ll also cover common missteps that trip up even seasoned attendees—and how to avoid them. You’ll get a clear understanding of how each key venue at the festival functions, from the Palais to the Riviera and the Village International, and how to use each space to your advantage. Most importantly, you’ll walk away aligned with what buyers and collaborators are actually looking for this year, so you can position yourself and your project for real traction.

Proud of our announcement today on Deadline! deadline.com/2024/01/stage-…

Remember to prioritize self-care. Take time each day (preferably in the morning) to do something that brings you joy and peace. It could be a walk in nature, meditation, working out or anything else you enjoy. Do this every day and see how much more productive and happy you are.

And…frankly, world domination is the bar. Up next, our Stage 32 Film & TV Summit this Thursday. Speakers from HBO/MAX, Screen Ireland, 2 Emmy-nominated producers (GENIUS, THE BEAR), Oscar-nominated producer (MUDBOUND) & many more. World. Domination. Let’s do this!

I talked to a friend of mine from high school today & she said “holy sh*t - you’re in Times Square!” I obsess about what more Stage 32 can do to be better. It’s never enough. You forget in the day to day what we’ve accomplished. So, congrats @Stage32 - we’re in Times Square!

Supported by dozens of film commissions, guilds, streamers and other organizations, everyone certified by Stage 32 will be listed in a central database accessible by all in an effort to get people hired and support production flow worldwide.

The Future of Film School is Here. We are thrilled to introduce Stage 32 Certification - the first-of-its-kind certification program to support the growth of the global production industry with industry-backed workforce training. Learn more: stage32.com/blog/the-futur… #filmschool
