Product Description

Book Description

The Pitch is the essential guide to pitching stories in the film and TV industry.

Product Description

A lively, witty and confidence-inspiring guide through the pitch process, this unique book is aimed at every aspiring and practicing storyteller/ film-maker setting out to turn their Big Idea into a reality.

Based on a series of how-to lectures developed by the authors over the last decade and interwoven with interviews with many well-known film-makers, the book's approach is two-fold. Firstly it looks at the requirements and psychology of buyers, and how successful sales techniques can be adapted to the film industry, providing a detailed analysis of the actual Pitch Process from preparation to delivery. Secondly it incorporates the experience of big name industry practitioners who relate their 'best and worst' pitch stories and advice, punctuated by a series of entertaining illustrations from the Guardian cartoonists and animators Berger and Wyse.

Film students, artists, agents, distributors, script executives, and producers will find the insights of The Pitch utterly invaluable and refer to it again and again each time they go out to market their Big Ideas.

Indespensible 17 Aug 2006
Format:Paperback
It's not a big book, it's not a complicated book. It does not need to be because the essential information, the relevant information is just what is contained. It basically shows that pitching a film, tv show, or even an idea to an investor is simple and all that is required is to be prepared by having all of the relevant questions answered and worked out, at least on paper.
