The Pitching Process


**First Pitch**
Screenwriters will have 2 minutes to pitch one 5-7 page Romance script.
After the pitches are over, we will share a private link to all the scripts pitched.
The audience will be given 15 mins to read as many scripts as they can.
The better the pitch, the more likely your script is the one being read!
The audience will vote at the event.
All the films teams will create a film out of the #1 winning script.
The challenge is for a team to film the best version out of the other teams!
Teams can sign up on this form early or can be made at the event via networking.
A networking mixer will be held at a local bar afterwards to network some more.


**Second Pitch**
Screenwriters are also allowed and encouraged to pitch ANOTHER project of their choice. This can be any personal project that the screenwriters needs funding or production help on. This second pitch will not be part of the competition and is only to help the screenwriter promote their work.


**Winner of the #1 winning script will also win a free copy of Movie Magic Screenwriter 6! More prizes to be determined!
