This is where Screenplayhelp.com provides you with the next level of mentoring you need in order to give your script the best possible shot.
Pitching is an art. First impressions are everything. Whether on the phone or in person, pitching is performing. How you enter a room, how you introduce yourself, how you introduce your material, how you begin your story, how you engage with the person you are meeting. All these require practice and rehearsal.
It doesn’t have to be hard or anxiety producing but it does need your attention before you go into the pitch. You must be mindful of what you are doing. This isn’t magic. There are skills you can learn in order to make your pitch effortless, powerful and therefore the absolute best presentation of yourself and your material.
What you desire to do and what you are doing don’t necessarily match up. Yet, it is so hard, especially for writers, to figure out how to showcase their material in the best possible light.
You need to be a performer if you want to sell your script or be considered for screenwriting assignments. The good news is that the skills necessary to create an “in the moment” presentation that enhances your written work are easy to learn.We work with you both on turning your words into “speaking” and by honing your presentation skills using video feedback. We will help you develop techniques that uniquely work for you when pitching your screenplay. You'll learn how to excite and entice your listener in order to get them to want to read your material. You'll also learn tips for putting your listener at ease. It's all about perfecting your presentation and your communication skills.
Bettina Moss and team partner Winship Cook stand ready to help you master the art of pitching your project successfully. You’re going to enjoy this.
