Welcome to One Grand Filmmakers 👋 🎉 In this community, I'll show you how I turned a $1,000 feature film into 3 more features, a full-time career in filmmaking, and relationships with the biggest names and platforms in the industry. But first... Please, introduce yourself :) (EXTRA CREDIT: Like 5 other posts, and welcome other filmmakers to the community as well!) Let's goooooo! 🚀

1. My biggest takeaway was to use real people without scripted dialogue. In film school, I specifically made an animation because I witnessed how the acting ruined my classmates films. 2. My biggest concern is deciding on what story I want to tell.

I spent two years (2021-2023) sending out two feature screenplays to 25 screenplay competitions, OUT was top 2% on Coverfly (Humanitas Finalist), A BREED APART was top 10% on Coverfly. I got one read from an industry professional who passed. I probably spent around 5k in private coaching (Pilar Alessandra and Lee Jessup), entry fees, and coverage. The biggest takeaway is that I can focus my creative energy in a better way.

I'm Jayne Maginot and I'm a writer-actor-director in Bozeman, Montana who makes dramas and comedies that push oppressed characters from victimhood to thriving...in just 2 hours or less! My goal is to write a feature film so good that it wins several Oscars and my agent says, "Lorne Michaels just called and wants you to host SNL in April."
