If you’re an actor, filmmaker, or storyteller looking to deepen your craft, today’s Stage 32 blog is for you! We’re back with Part 2 of our exclusive behind-the-scenes series on the making of ALIX, a powerful international feature created by Stage 32 members in collaboration with @official_catalyst_studios. In this week’s blog, actors @cristalaparicioc and @robertourbinaofficial take you inside their creative process—from how they emotionally and physically prepared for the demanding roles, to the real-life challenges of shooting in the Colombian jungle, and what it takes to embody complex characters shaped by trauma, survival, and transformation. This is a must-read for anyone looking to understand how actors build layered, honest performances under intense conditions. Their insights are not only inspiring—they’re practical tools you can apply to your own work. Directed by @ana.maria.hermidia.s and produced by Stage 32 member @lemoresyvan, ALIX was shot entirely in Colombia and supported by a 30% production rebate. Our own CEO Richard Botto and Managing Director Amanda Toney proudly served as Executive Producers, continuing Stage 32’s mission to empower independent creatives around the world. Stream ALIX now on Amazon, Google Play, or Apple TV—and head to the Stage 32 blog to learn directly from the actors who brought this story to life! Let us know in the comments- Have you ever worked on a project that pushed you emotionally or physically? We want to hear all about it! #Stage32 #IAmStage32 #ALIXFilm #CatalystStudios #BehindTheScenes #CristalAparicio #RobertoUrbina #ActorTips #CharacterDevelopment #WomenInFilm #IndieFilm #FilmInColombia #CreativeProcess #Stage32Blog #FilmmakingJourney @Official_Catalyst_Studios @hollyl_pdx @lemoresyvan @Markgpennell @rbwalksintoabar @cristalaparicioc @robeurbina @nataliareyesg @carlosbardemoficial @carowar
