Actor Dictionary | The Pitch

The most essential selling tool in Hollywood. A pitch is basically a verbal presentation you give to someone regarding your project. Reasons for pitching could be as simple as sparking interest, or getting someone to finance your project. It's arguably the most important skill to possess as a producer. Pitching is a huge part of how projects get bought and greenlit in this industry, and the better you are at pitching, the better chance you have of getting projects in motion. The duration of a pitch can last from 30 seconds to 20 minutes depending on what your project is, what environment you are pitching in , and who you are pitching to. Sometimes youll only have 30 seconds capture the attention of an agent on the phone. Other times, you might have 10 minutes to sell your TV idea to an executive in a board room.
