Pitch and Presentation Techniques

Do's and donts when pitching a media idea.

  • Be clear and don't get lost - try to stay on the pitch subject not of trail.
  • Prepare, prepare before- film your pitch and watch it back or ask your family to watch.
  • Set the scene- include pictures or music instead of talking for ages with no colour. 
  • The devil is in the detail - make sure that you have all the facts you need, so you know what it is your selling.
  • Show your passion- really enjoy the presentation, you need to show that you also like what your pitching. 
  • Dont go over time- people may loose interest if your pitch is longer than the time given.
  • Stay professional- try not to focus on being super friendly due to the atmosphere, stay serious slightly friendly is fine but don't over do it.
