The Pitch with Pilar Alessandra

You can’t sell your project until you’ve convinced someone to read it.  But the pitching process doesn’t have to be overwhelming. In this class  Pilar Alessandra makes it easy. With her user-friendly pitch template,  she guides you through ways to communicate your inspiration, story,  world and characters. No more nerves or writer-babble. This class will  give you confidence and clarity as you focus on what’s special about  your project and about you. Pilar Alessandra is a master at  helping writers through the writing process. I have taken her workshops  and I have hired her in the past as a script consultant. I have also  heard her speak at the American Film Market (AFM) on screenplay writing  as well as the AFM pitch panel. Pilar started her career as Senior Story  Analyst at DreamWorks SKG. In 2001, she opened the Los Angeles-based On  the Page Writers’ Studio, dedicated to teaching and consulting with  screenwriters and TV writers at all levels. She’s the author of the  top-selling scriptwriting book, “The Coffee Break Screenwriter,” and  host of the popular “On the Page Podcast.” An in-demand speaker, she’s  taught seminars at Disney Animation, ABC, CBS and MTV, and traveled the  world teaching in the UK, China, Poland, Vietnam, Colombia, Portugal and  South Africa. Pilar’s greatest accomplishment is the success of her  students, many of whom have won top competitions such as the Nicholl  Fellowship, are working on TV shows such as “The 100,” “Silicon Valley”  and “Grey’s Anatomy,” and have sold feature films to major studios.
