Handy guidelines for pitching

To get the best response to your pitches try to include the following elements:

1.Title (in the subject line)

2.Is it a Feature / Short / TV series / other?

3.Your Logline (ie. a sentence that encapsulates the film - including the end. This is not a tag line which might appear on a movie poster - think of the Logline as being the line a production company might use to catalogue your script)

4.A 30 word synopsis (ie. what happens - in up to 30 words)

5.Genre/style

6.The pitch for your screenplay in one paragraph (ie. your chance to spin, give flavour, tell us why this film should be made, and perhaps what it's "really" about)

7.Industry interest (ie. does the project have any development history, has it been work-shopped, developed as part of a competition, do you have a producer etc)

8.An indication of what you are looking for with this pitch (eg.a Producer? Some Finance? A film school graduate director?)

9.An indication of how you would like interested parties to contact you.
