Stage 32 Contest Winner Hired to Write Basketball Biopic through Stage 32!

Open for some major #MondayMotivation Today's blog comes from Gregg Guest, a screenwriter and producer based in New York City. I’ve been writing for the visual medium since high school. I attended New York University’s Tisch School of the Arts, where I wrote, produced and directed several short films, one of which, “Regular Coffee,” won a Bronze CINDY Award from the Association of Visual Communicators. After film school, I worked for a while in the commercial production industry in New York, and I started focusing on screenwriting. I had good results. My screenplay “Guardians Of The Crown,” won Best Screenplay at the Westchester Film Festival in New York and was a semi-finalist in the Nicholl Fellowships. It also placed well in numerous other contests. Late last year I decided to enter it in the Stage 32 Action Screenplay Competition. And I won the grand prize. I wasn’t all that familiar with Stage 32 at the time, but I jumped in head first. I set up my profile, added my log lines and listed my awards. My initial call with Molly and Jason at Stage 32 was awesome, and I immediately felt like my screenplay and I were in good hands. I hit the forums, and instantly met some great people – other Stage 32 contest winners, fellow screenwriters and a ton of inspiring, creative folks. Then I checked out the Stage 32 job board. I applied to several interesting posts. One of them was looking for a screenwriter to write a biopic, the true story of a retired basketball player who made basketball history.
