Bristol Student Filmmakers: Pitching Forum

What a wealth of talent we have among the Bristol student population! We are delighted to bring you all together for a summer pitching event where connections can be made and collaborations nurtured.

Pitching Forum events at Make Happen (Screenology) are relaxed events hosted by our Beyond Team. We try to create a space where creatives at all stages of their project can come and share their ideas and recruit collaborators/crew/support. Likewise, we aim to create an environment where creatives with varying skill levels can jump on projects and offer their skills and services.

Format

• We host the event in one of the flexi workshop spaces at St Vincent's Works. If possible, we'll sit in circle so everyone can be seen and heard clearly.
• Pitchers have 90 seconds to share the scope of their project
• We'll briefly open the floor to questions then have a show of hands to indicate how many people are interested in getting involved.
• After all the pitches are finished, we'll get people circulating so that you can swap contact info.

Top Tips For Pitchers

• Tell us the scope and context of your project, what stage you're at and your timeline
• Tell us the roles/type of collaborators you're looking for, and experience required
• Tell us any key dates/locations you already know
• Keep it snappy and bring along something to capture others contact info at the end

Top Tips For Collaborators/Crew

• Have an easy way to share your contact details afterwards
