BFMC event: Perfect Pitch: Creating a Powerful Treatment and Pitch Deck/Look Book

A treatment and a pitch deck (aka look book) are two critical tools you need to get potential buyers and talent interested in your project. In this hands-on, interactive workshop, you’ll learn what goes into a successful pitch deck and what elements should be included in your treatment. You’ll review and discuss examples of treatments provided by Marilyn, and you’ll learn the optimal way to present yourself as the best person for your project. This workshop includes the rare opportunity to sharpen your tools and presentation skills by actually pitching to a Hollywood pro. 

Advance preparation:  Come to class with a logline (a two-sentence summary of your project) that you’ll use to pitch to Marilyn in the workshop.

Class size is limited to 20 participants to ensure participants get a quality learning experience, including plenty of time for interaction and Q&A with Marilyn.

Cost: $65; student price $45 (limited)
