THE ENGINE ROOM PITCH WORKSHOP
Speaker:  Christina Burnett

The Engine Room Pitch Workshop is a unique two day project development and pitching experience for documentary/factual filmmakers and producers seeking UK and international commissions and market intelligence Intense, friendly and practical, the Engine Room Pitch Workshop develops real projects and trailers, which are then presented to two commissioning editors for feedback.  It is also an exceptional networking opportunity too.

Created by leading international pitch trainer Christina Burnett of Wide Eye Pictures, the format has been delivered across the UK and Ireland and also in Brazil and Abu Dhabi Many successful films have been developed, some of which have been commissioned as a direct result of the workshops.

You can attend either as a pitcher with project, or as an observer To apply for either please send a ONE PAGE proposal for a doc/factual project and a CV (both in PDF format) to Amanda Millen.

All projects which are submitted by the deadline, Wednesday 11th November by 5pm, will be considered and those which are selected to  pitch will be notified in advance of the workshop. You can submit a project now in advance of the date being confirmed if you wish.
