Ever hear of speed dating? The PitchFest is a similar concept, except the "dates" are with film and television executives. Writers, Producers, Directors, and anyone with an idea or show to pitch should not miss out on this event. Even if you do not have a show to pitch, it is an opportunity to introduce yourself or your company, and begin the important process of building professional relationships.

Description
How do you get a project greenlit? Have an A-list actor want to do it. Actors read for lines they want to say. That’s your dialogue!
How do you get an agent? Agents look for an original voice. That’s your dialogue!
And when it comes to your dialogue, good is not good enough! Discover the surprisingly simple, yet magically effective tools that transform your good dialogue into sparkling original dialogue that jumps up off the page and makes your script a great read. With in-class writing and personalized feedback from Ellen you’ll learn to:
- Say more with less
- Capture each character’s unique voice
- Reveal your characters motives through subtext
- Streamline clunky exposition
- Rid your script of on-the-nose dialogue
- Find the funny!
