Writing and Pitching Your Proposal

Event Categories

Short Course (DFG)
Summary
For most documentary and factual filmmakers, the proposal represents the first chance to get your directorial foot in the door with a broadcaster. For this reason, getting it right first time is crucial. This course will give an overview of the processes involved in writing and pitching your proposal for factual programming.
Full description
During the weekend, you will cover the standard writing techniques and formats for television proposals. The workshop will include vital information on the commissioning process and the particular types of proposals required by different commissioning bodies. You will also get help with visualising your story and learn how to best pitch it.
