How to Pitch Your Script; helping writers and producers get from logline to the room

How to Pitch Your Script is a self-paced course for writers, directors and producers who need someone else to want their story. Thirteen steps take you from a logline to the room: the synopsis and one-sheet, which document goes to whom, a pitch deck built slide by slide, comps you can defend, an investment deck with the rules that come with it, the spoken pitch, and the follow-up. It works for a feature, a short or a series. Each step has a short read, a Don’t skip box with the part first-timers miss, a worked example from an invented film, and questions. You write the answers, in order, and the answers become your pitch. Included: the How to Pitch Your Script workbook, a file that opens in your web browser and saves as you type, plus a printable worksheet for every step, a deck slide planner, a one-sheet template, a comps worksheet and a pitch rehearsal card. The workbook compiles your answers into one printable pitch packet at the end. The investment steps are general information; talk to an attorney before you raise money. Self-paced, at your own speed. There are no videos, no live sessions and nobody reading your pages. When an investor asks what the movie really costs, the answer is a breakdown and a budget, and that’s the work Goldsmith Production Services does.
