ONLINE HOLLYWOOD PITCH FESTIVAL - PITCH LIVE TO AGENTS, PRODUCERS AND EXECUTIVES

Description

Imagine... no planes to catch, no hotels to book, no cabs, rental cars or expensive meals and no time away from work and loved ones! Fade In's bringing Hollywood directly to you -- no matter where you are in the world. All you need is a computer, webcam and a script, book or idea for a TV show or movie.

Two days and one evening of non-stop pitch meetings where you can establish vital industry contacts, land representation and even sell or option your material.

How will it work? Ten days prior to the event, you'll receive a list of agents, managers, executives and producers taking part. From this list (and subsequent email updates), you will choose your top meetings plus five alternates. We will then use your preferences to create a schedule for you, which we will email to you 24 hours in advance of the festival. This schedule will give you approximate times you will be contacted, via live video conferencing, by Hollywood VIPs to participate in one-on-one pitch meetings. Each meeting will be up to ten minutes in length.

The event is open to 100 participants only.

Fade In created the pitch festival and coined the word "pitchfest" in 1994. Many emulators have attempted to copy the concept since 2002, however, Fade In festivals remain the only pitch events that do not pay Hollywood VIPs to attend; that have garnered more sales, options and agency signings for aspiring writers & directors. We strive to offer our customers quality events and are proud to introduce this new innovative, economical way of connecting to Hollywood.

What attendees of the Online Hollywood Pitch Festival had to say...

"It went so well - even the companies that turned me down told me to call them with other projects." -B. Walters


"I am extremely pleased and proud of your efforts. Think about the fact that what you did is get writers together with producers, agents, and managers - all without me or others leaving our home. If they were to give out Oscars for what you did this past weekend, you should be walking away with the award. Thank you for holding the first online pitch festival. Overall it was a great experience and fun." - L. Scher

"This Fade In Online Pitch Event has been superb! The Fade In team has been spectacular in their support from beginning to end - couldn't ask for better. It's been quite a treat and education meeting and pitching these gracious folks via webcam. The companies Fade In scheduled for us to pitch are awesome! Thank you, Fade In!" - G. Begendorf, Germany

"Of the 17 appointments I had, half were positive responses (requests for manuscript, requests for partial, requests for writing sample, or verbal commitment that they or a member of their company would be contacting me.) 50% success rate? Those are DAMN good odds/results. Well worth the money." - M. Melin

"Well done!" - C. Sawyer, South Africa

"I had wonderful results - out of the ten contacts, eight liked my project and six asked for either a first act or a synopsis - and the other two took my email address. YAY! The [Fade In] online pitchfest is a wonderful idea. It gives those of us unable to attend an in-person event a shot to speak with some pretty heavy hitters. I appreciate the opportunity Fade In has extended to me. I never would have caught the attention of any of these people if it hadn't been for this event. - M. Harrison

"Thank you so much for setting up those extra meetings! I love you guys! Awesome results." -L. Dalinda

"Thanks for coordinating all this! I got multiple script requests!" -D. Cooper


"We got fantastic results! This has been unreal in a good way!" -CJ Sang


"Thanks everyone! I'm Skyped out!" -M. Madden


"I suspect you are more exhausted than I. It has been a marathon. So many companies want to read my script! Thank you so much." -D. Bertoni

"The access you offer us is invaluable -- now it's up to my script to do the rest. Can't ask for more than that." -E. Knies

"You guys are great. The online pitchfest works. I discovered that I had better results having two pitches ready in different genres instead of banking on one. A few companies were looking for anything. So I opening the conversation by giving them the option of which one they wanted to hear. One time I did this and got through the pitch and they liked it but didn't think it was for them, they asked me to briefly tell them the second pitch. They ended up asking for a copy of the script. The entire experience was a wonderful journey. At the last day, I was kinda sad that it was ending. The reps were so nice and appreciative that I pitched with energy, passion and enthusiasm. Thank guys for providing this great service. I teach film at West LA College and I'm going to recommend this to all my students. " -Paul Calderon

"I really think your staff did a great job. For everything we Mid-westerners hear about the "horrible Hollywood execs" and how impossible it is to work with them, I found everyone to be polite, engaged and honest in their wants and needs. I hope to be able to write you again soon with a success story. Also, Allen really helped my confidence and pointed out many things that helped me do a better pitch via our online coach session. " -Joel Newport

"It was a fantastic way for out-of-towners to get "face" time with A-list companies without the added expense of airfare, hotel and transportation, especially in these difficult economic times. Fade In provides a fantastic lineup of production companies and management/agency reps who are eager to hear your pitch, discuss your material with you and give you a sense of how the industry works. I can't wait for the next opportunity. Thank you again, Fade In! " -L. Robbins
