Screenwriters, give us your best pitch. You could win $250.
Our third annual PCFF Screenwriting Pitch Fest will be at 8 pm Saturday, July 19 in the Foundation Room, 333 N. Oregon, across from San Jacinto Plaza.
It’s free to enter. Just fill in the submission form below and submit it by 11:59 pm Friday, July 18. The logline is a short version of what you’re going to pitch, one or two sentences. The synopsis is a summation of your screenplay, about a paragraph.
What’s a pitch fest?
It’s a forum for writers to sell, or pitch, their screenplay to a producer, or, in this case, our judge, filmmaker and Femme Frontera Filmmaker Showcase founder Angie Reza Tures.
You’ll get two minutes sell your idea to her. The key is to make it compelling, to make her want to see it as a finished film. This is not a recitation of the plot. It’s a sales pitch.
Screenwriter and Border Theatre founder Austin Savage will host. Austin and Angie will offer constructive feedback after each pitch.
The $250 first prize will be awarded at the end of the pitch fest.
It’s free to submit. And it’s free to attend. We’ll have some appetizers and a cash bar.
