Fake “executives”, it’s a money grab
I’ve done a handful of pitch meetings. The last 3 all said they’d request material and then a week later passed on it. Brought this up to the team at Stage 32 and they stood by the “executives” (they LOVE using that word lol). These “executives” are people who may have been a production assistant, had a small writing role, or have worked at various companies throughout Hollywood. These are NOT the people that have a ticket to your success. They just want your 35$. Please please please, STOP wasting your money. If you have talent and good material, cold call production companies and send query letters to literary managers. I had material taken by the VPs of networks, major production companies and more, and some Stage 32 “exec” that looks like he f**** his cat shit on my work after pretending to be interested during a pitch session lol. It’s a money grab. That’s all it is. They prey on people by selling a dream. It’s the oldest trick in the book.
