AFI Bridge to the Future presents: 5 Essentials of a Powerful Feature Pitch (6 for a Television Series)....The Secret Ingredients to Making the Sale
What really goes into a powerful pitch? Ready to hear an insider’s take on the key ingredients that create the winning formula? Join Career Coach and Talent Agent Consultant Jim Arnoff on August 22 from 6 p.m. – 7:30 p.m. PST for an immersive, interactive online session (cameras on, please) who will lay out the step-by-step essentials for pitching with impact and results. We’ll cover making the strongest connection, painting the big picture, articulating the inspiration, bringing the cast of characters alive, telling the feature/pilot story with clarity and, for a series, envisioning future episodes/story arcs with precision. In this workshop you’ll learn the coaching skills to pitch the essentials with confidence, conviction and your own style of charisma. Bring your film or TV project to pitch the group for constructive feedback (encouraged, not required).
Jim is offering all AFI Alumni a complimentary 30-minute coaching session on FaceTime or Zoom on any area of your entertainment career. Reach out to Jim at jimarnoff.com.
