Need your movie, TV series, streaming series or screenplay to be produced? Are you going to pitch a project to a studio executive, producer, name actor or private investor? Pitching means asking producers, name actors, and studio executives for help. No one pretends this is easy. “Ive seen other filmmakers give presentations,” says film producer/director/screenwriter Tom Marcoux, “Many presentations crashed and burned. But remember, people do this all the time, successfully. You can do it well.” After gaining funds for a number of projects (one film went to the Cannes film market), Marcoux has compiled what worked and what didn’t into this online course. Much of it builds on his observations of dire mistakes, his own and others. He alerts you to the 10 Darkest Secrets of this process. Even better, youll find Countermeasures. Discover problems that pop up and how to solve them. Learn to avoid the traps that amateurs fall into. Youll learn great skills and how to eliminate bad habits or wrong assumptions that can torpedo your pitch. When it comes to the vital skill of pitching your ideas and enrolling others into your vision, this course shows you the way.“This insightful course shows you how to zing a curveball right past the parts of the Hollywood exec’s brain that want to say no before you even make your pitch. You will learn what works when pitching, and more importantly, why, so you can get to YES much more often.” - Danek S. Kaus, produced screenwriterTom Marcoux gives you powerful methods so you easily gain rapport, trust and active responsiveness from important people. David Baron, co-author of Power Persuasion
