Freelancer Series: Introduction to Pitching with Clifford Parrott

INTRODUCTION TO PITCHING

 

The National Talent Academy for Animation is delighted to launch the Introduction to Pitching workshop with Clifford Parrott as part of our Freelancer Series.

 

Course Overview:

People come up with concepts they think will make a great animated short, a TV series, or even a feature film but, how does it go from a “great idea” to a solid pitch? You need to develop it!

This Half Day Zoom course will take the attendees through a systematic method, testing their concepts, looking at it from different angles, and building upon it until there’s a shiny new pitch ready to take to a broadcaster, distributor and/or the markets.

  1. We will go over sample pitches, what they have in common, and what makes them good.

  2. We’ll have the opportunity to break down and analyse Attendee concepts.

  3. We’ll review and work up what makes a “Hook”.

  4. We’ll go over animation and film markets, and what makes a good market strategy.

  5. A summary discussion on what constitutes IP Rights (copyright, trademarks) and how to start with a clean chain of title.
