Film Pitch

 Film Pitch

Film pitch is the presented idea for a film or TV show. The pitch is normally made by the director or the screenwriter which is shown to the producer. Using a film pitch is a way of selling your idea to the producers to convince them that its a good enough idea to be produced and shown in cinema's and also general TV. This will also help the director gain a fund for the whole idea. A Pitch should involve:

• Synopsis 
• Screenplay sample (not always necessary) 
• Selling points
• Budget
• Cast/Crew team
• Mini footage (Not always necessary)
• Genre

These are the main points that the producer will be taking most interest in:

• Cast/Crew Team
• Budget
• The inspired film
• Genre
• How it will be marketed

If your pitch idea takes up an amount of time this will be a huge disadvantage for the producers. Your pitch should be an unique idea and presented in a way to catch the producers interest.
