INDUSTRY 101 EVENT SERIES
Pitching 101:
The Windup and the Pitch: Film
October 2025 | 5-6:30 PM PT | Online
What is a pitch? Why do they call it that? How do they work? What’s the format? Why can’t they just read it and make a decision? And what does it mean when they ask you to “pitch your take” on a piece of material? What is a “bake off” and how does it relate to pitching? Do I need to make a “deck?”
This conversation will answer these questions and more, and will explore pitching, how to present a pitch, and, most crucially, how to prepare for one.
