This event has passed.

Whether you are preparing for the Seattle Film Summit’s November pitch competition, prepping to sell a script, or trying to get a manager you will need to learn how to pitch.

Over her 20+ years in the film industry, Lee Jessup has helped hundreds of writers prepare for pitching to managers and producers. Now you have the opportunity to learn from this sought-after screenwriting career coach!

She will explain:
·       What do you include in a pitch?
·       What are ways to prepare for a pitch?
·       What are the differences between feature and television pitches?
·       What are the differences between in-person, online, and pre-recorded pitches?

During the session, Lee will critique a few live pitches. Even those who aren’t pitching will be able to take away valuable insights that can help with their own pitches.

Q&A to follow.
