- Learning how to pitch a script can be very nerve-wracking for many writers. It takes confidence and charm, but there’s also a strategy that can be learned.
In our latest video, we’ve created a step-by-step guide on how to pitch a movie idea and sell your script with style.
Here’s what’s coming up:
• Types of film pitches (elevator vs. extended).
• What happens in a pitch meeting (general vs. specific).
• How to write a pitch for a movie (do’s and don’ts).
• How to sell a movie idea (hint: prepare and practice!).
• Following up on film pitch / meeting.
• Real-life screenplay pitch examples.
Over to You:
• Ask yourself: is my screenplay “ready” to be pitched?
• Remember: it’s a two-way conversation, not a speech!
• How many film pitches have you given? How did they go?
• Rejection is a part of the process. Stay inspired and keep writing.
• What do you think of our methods outlined in this video?
Let us know in the comments section below the video.

Very good content. As an experienced pitching instructor, I wouldn't change a word. Very accurate, clear and pro.
We appreciate your professional feedback, Guillermo!
haven't finished watching but I'm already so grateful to have found this video
I do believe what's important is whether the Film story or the idea is worthy or not, focusing on other details may shift it to a job interview instead, and that's why we are watching many Low movies nowadays.
This is one of the best explained ever in all of your videos
Thanks for the great feedback!
Thanks. Would be grateful for a break in getting to that magical first break in pitching.
Kind of confused about the movie idea section because a pitch competition brought me here where they only took a pitch with no screenplay. But, it does make sense in the context of being in front of a producer.
Literally THE best video on film pitching! And very timely! Thank you!!!
thanks for watching Lacey!
Excellent lesson!!!! Thanks!
This is a brilliant presentation. I'm going to share this with my students for sure!
that's great to hear!
Great information, thank you!
Hi Script Reader Pro! Great video. Everything that you mentioned was accurate and on point.

Wow, good and perfect info.
Thank you Sweety. It's helpful!
Glad you think so!
Thank You!!!!!
It's our pleasure, thanks for watching!
Great videos very helpful , is there any chance of doing a video of: how to move your character from one room to another (smooth like)
synopsis or pitch deck ? First what should I send to OTT ? as writer+Director
❤ God Bless All Much Love To All Be Blessed To All Happy Easter 🐣 ❤
Also, do you suggest visual aids like a pitch deck, or is it traditionally just a verbal pitch with no visual aids? Thanks!
visual aids can definitely be helpful as far as a written deck, but not needed for verbal pitches!
👍
How do you land a meeting to pitch your film? What if you wish to write and Direct it?
Thanks... I understood the video. But some of the words that you were explaining I didn't understand. How May I get a copy of a video or talk to you?
Hello, we recommend you read the article on the same subject so that you can read at your own pace: www.scriptreaderpro.com/how-to-pitch-a-movie-idea/
I already knew the donts. And never do them.
I love writing and want to be a scriptwriter/ actress but I have no friends and no one to help me start. Lol People say surround yourself with others who share your passion, but I don’t know where to find them. 🙃
Hi Bella! We recommend that you look to online screenwriters' communities as a start. For example, Stage 32 can be a great resource. You may find this article helpful: www.scriptreaderpro.com/screenwriting-resources/
So this didn't help at all nobody has any contacts to meetings and won't get any.
Screenplay pitching is the lifeblood of the business. But you say it's worthless without a script. This was not helpful. I'm gonna have to invent the method to sell this industry sucks.
TAKE An IDEA, THEN give it the complete opposite.
25 of the YT- commercials SUCK, because their ONLY MADE TO GET A "YES" from the owner of the company. IF YOUR SKILL, MAKE A COMMERCIAL.
Most people know ZORO, and afraid get bullet proof! THEY MAY HAVE one piece of the PIZZA.
I SEE ALOT CRUSH AND BURN. AND TODAY you can do it in AI, or animation.
I SEE video that are great. A LOT OF GARBAGE OF COPIES OF A COPY.
Please slow down or at least show the beggining of after you write the script .. what to do next ??? You didn’t explain how to even get in contact with an executive at a studio a huge gap was skipped in this video
