This is a fun, easy to read book. Makes you feel like you've got an actual shot at a successful pitch. Really useful, practical guide. Gives you all the information of a good how-to textbook without reading like one.
A MUST FOR WOULD-BE FILMMAKERS
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago
I've worked in the entertainment industry for many years and still panic each time I go into a pitch meeting! Staying calm, organizing my thoughts, conveying my excitement about the project, etc... is difficult when combating nerves. This book breaks down the pitch process into manageable stages: finding an idea, writing a well-structured treatment, making phone calls to the right people, booking meetings, pitching the idea, and even negotiating payment and/or credit. Great investment for ten bucks!

Perfect Pitch
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago
An easy (and entertaining!) read. This book explains step-by-step how to contact production companies and studios, make appointments, and sell TV and movie ideas. I don't live in LA or New York. It's encouraging to know that I don't have to.
