AF Pitch Series 2025 (10)

Artist Foundry Pitch Workshop

Do you have a great film concept that you are seeking funding and resources for? It all begins with a pitch. This Pitch Workshop will help you create an effective pitch and empower you to pitch your film with confidence. Learn from filmmakers and pitch experts, Erika Cohn and Sohrab Mirmont, how to pitch both narrative and documentary projects successfully. We will explore how to structure your pitch presentation, which elements to include in your pitch, designing effective pitch decks and visual samples, when and who to pitch to, and how to prepare yourself for success before, during, and after a pitch. The workshop will also include time for supported work on your own pitches and the opportunity to practice.

Your workshop ticket also includes access to the Pitch Panel, occurring before the workshop.

Schedule of Events:

  • 11:00 – 12:30pm Pitch Panel
  • 12:30 – 1:00pm Break
  • 1:00 – 3:00pm Pitch Workshop

Following the workshop, applications will open for the annual Artist Foundry Pitch Competition.
