What is a pitch? A pitch is simply a way to present yourself or your project to others. It is usually a brief speech designed to persuade your listener into supporting what you're doing or what you've made. Most creators have no trouble coming up with great ideas for new comics, but they often struggle to speak clearly and concisely about those ideas to other people. Giving a good pitch is a vital skill in bringing a project to life. Fortunately, it's also a skill that can be learned and improved with practice, and Pitch Review is a great place to do that. Creators who want to get better at pitching their work, especially writers or artists attending the Comic Creator Connection immediately after this event, will have the chance to practice giving their pitch and get invaluable help from a professional writer and speaker coach. Pitch reviews will be conducted by Douglas Neff, a professional speechwriter, speaker coach, and host of the Comic Creator Connection. Spaces are allotted on a first-come, first-served basis, and everyone is welcome to watch and learn from the sessions.
