@MARKT11: How long are standard pitches Stephanie? Few lines? #scriptchat
July 15, 2012, 7:03 pm       



 
@goodinaroom: @teenierussell It's my pleasure.n #scriptchat
July 15, 2012, 7:03 pm       



 
@goodinaroom: @MARKT11 As a standard, your "short pitch" should be 1-3 sentences. #scriptchat
July 15, 2012, 7:04 pm       



 
@teenierussell: My 1st Q: Does being nervous put off the person you are pitching to? #scriptchat
July 15, 2012, 7:05 pm       



 
@goodinaroom: Question for the group--What do you think is the most challenging aspect of pitching? #scriptchat
July 15, 2012, 7:05 pm       



 
@MARKT11: Yeah...that's what I've been practicing on. Keep their eyes open LOL #scriptchat
July 15, 2012, 7:05 pm       



 
@zacsanford: Bummer. Didn't make it to the QFs of the @PAGEawards. Now to rush home to join #scriptchat.

@Bang2write: @goodinaroom hi :) I will be at @londonswf hearing pitches as ever. I will add your book to "Bang2write Books" on @Pinterest #scriptchat
July 15, 2012, 7:06 pm       



 
@goodinaroom: @teenierussell Being nervous- no. Seeming nervous- yes. There are cures for nerves, however. #scriptchat
July 15, 2012, 7:06 pm       



 
@TaroJ: How much of a pitch is selling yourself as much as selling your script? #scriptchat
July 15, 2012, 7:06 pm       



 
@teenierussell: @goodinaroom Most challenging for me is getting the listener interested from the go #scriptchat
July 15, 2012, 7:07 pm       



 
@MARKT11: Challenging aspect? Getting them to see the story I've created for fellow fans-audiences like myself #scriptchat
July 15, 2012, 7:07 pm       



 
@goodinaroom: @teenierussell Pitches get customized over time. However, as a starting point, I recommend framing your story thusly: #scriptchat

@goodinaroom: @MARKT11 Good point. Execs aren't necessarily fans of all genres and you may need to customize your pitch differently. #scriptchat

@goodinaroom: @TaroJ 1st- Use an initial feedback group of people in your target market but no decision-makers (friends, family, colleagues) #scriptchat

@TaroJ: @Sandy_Nicholson @goodinaroom that's a good idea, I'd not thought of that #scriptchat

@goodinaroom: @TaroJ 2nd- Once your pitch is getting consistently positive feedback, take a "practice meeting" with someone higher level. #scriptchat

@Sandy_Nicholson: @TaroJ @goodinaroom yeah it's great. It also highlights what elements of your script are sticking in peoples minds. #scriptchat

@kathkells: If you're pitching a thriller and the exec asks you what else you've got, is it okay to pitch a comedy (or other genre)? #scriptchat
July 15, 2012, 7:15 pm       



 
@goodinaroom: @PINKTROID Yes. Among other things, a TV pitch needs to suggest where future episodes would come from. #scriptchat
July 15, 2012, 7:15 pm       



 
@goodinaroom: @Sandy_Nicholson Yes- Exactly! #scriptchat

@teenierussell: RT @goodinaroom Your short pitch should be 1 min or less. Your complete pitch should be under 10 min and as short as possible. #scriptchat

@Bang2write: @zacsanford2 hi Zac, agree re: pitchfest situations. @londonswf do speed pitching + clever delegates drop a line before meeting #scriptchat
July 15, 2012, 7:38 pm       



 
@goodinaroom: @matthew_cruz It depends. But in general, stick to your original idea and let the execs suggest the comparisons. #scriptchat
July 15, 2012, 7:38 pm       



 
@zacsanford2: @Bang2write I've attended countless pitchfests over the last five years and only ONE person has ever done the pre-fest letter. #scriptchat
July 15, 2012, 7:39 pm       



 
@goodinaroom: @matthew_cruz Also, "What is your project most like?" asks about tone comparisons. Then you can use examples. #scriptchat

@TaroJ: If you get the opportunity to pitch but don't feel the script ready, should you jump in for fear of not getting another chance #scriptchat
