TAAFI’S PERFECT PITCH DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM

Well, look no further than our all-new Perfect Pitch Program! Specially tailored to help YOU realize your vision, the Perfect Pitch program offers an opportunity to present your awesome ideas to animation executives and learn tips and tricks of the trade from top-notch directors, writers, and producers. Starting with a slate of workshops, you’ll learn the fine art of crafting a masterful pitch, and how to deliver that pitch with some public speaking tools to add to your toolkit. After a luncheon to mix and mingle, you’ll then pitch YOUR epic idea in a 1 on 3 session with a writer, director, and producer to get invaluable feedback. Then, to conclude your day, you’ll get an opportunity to chat with development executives to pitch your idea to those looking for it!

Are you developing a show and looking for an opportunity to showcase your big idea?
