ScreenLab: Pitching with Power Masterclass

Success!

Sunday 29 January 2012
10.30am to 5.30pm
Tutor: Charles Harris

Can you imagine being able to grab the attention of industry professionals in just a few words?

Wouldn't it be great to have enough time to really work on pitches so that you can be as powerful and persuasive as you could possibly be?

Two of the writers on this course last year went straight to Cannes and came joint second in the Cannes 2010 Pitching Competition. And writers have gone straight off and using the pitches we developed together made deals and won immediate interest from BBC Drama, Warners, Curtis Brown and other major producers and agents.

As a result I've added this workshop to the Selling Your Script workshop on the insistence of our member-writers - making a uniquely intensive weekend in selling and pitching.

THIS DAY WORKS BEST IN CONJUNCTION WITH SELLING YOUR SCRIPT - SATURDAY JANUARY 28TH.

IT CAN BE BOOKED SEPARATELY IF YOU HAVE PREVIOUSLY ATTENDED THE SELLING YOUR SCRIPT TRAINING.

The day

There are many pitching workshops around, but few of them give you the intensive personal time, teaching and feedback that we do at Euroscript.

In this workshop you will use exercises and feedback to clarify the strengths of your idea, and use that premise as the basis for developing an exciting, original and marketable pitch.

You will learn a number of psychological skills to help you gain confidence and reach a higher level than you dreamed you could.

You will have the opportunity to practise pitching to small groups or to all the others in a friendly and constructive setting, so as to become comfortable with telling people your story in any situation.

And you will come away from this workshop with a clearly thought-out pitch and be ready to pitch your ideas with confidence and authority.
