Future Pitching!

I've been working on my pitch for this movie, will be practicing too. I'm loving all the information and tips about pitching. I hear after the first time, it isn't as terrifying! Happy Pitching Everyone.

Hi, Xochi Blymyer. Stage 32 has written pitch examples (one for a movie and one for a series). Stage 32 also has a verbal TV pitch beat sheet and a verbal feature film pitch beat sheet. You can get them by emailing success@stage32.com.

Here's two Lounge posts with pitch advice:

The Pitch Practice is the best pitching resource in my opinion. Pitch Practice is every Thursday night at 5:30 P.M. PST/8:30 P.M. EST. You can sit in and listen to members practice their projects and give them feedback. You can pitch your project too, but you have to sign up. The hosts, Noel Thompson and John Mezes, take names during Pitch Practice for people to pitch the following week. You have to sit in and listen at the practice one or two times before you can pitch. The Pitch Practices are only open to Writers' Room members. You can sign up for your first month free here: www.stage32.com/writers-room/plans-vip

The Pitch Tank is an incredible pitching resource too. The Pitch Tank is where you pitch your script to an executive and get feedback. I think the Pitch Tank is every week in the Writers’ Room.

Here’s a free pitch webinar I suggest checking out: www.stage32.com/education/products/pitching-tips-from-the-pros-your-blue...
