Pitch Session ~ Open Mic

Back by popular demand: You Pitch You!

Every so often we provide a forum onstage for our attendees to promote themselves, so our guest speakers on Wednesday, June 13^th will be YOU!

First up to the mic will be special guest Jennifer Hutchins, recently relocated producer from LA, founder of Austin Entertainment Business, and currently establishing the official chapter in Austin for the Producers Guild of America (PGA).

Then it’s your turn at the open mic. Do you have a project, or looking for one? Have you a talent or skill to offer, or looking for cast or crew? Here’s your chance to be seen and heard onstage. Pitch yourself and what you do or what you want.

Pitchstructions:

• Arrive early to ensure a time slot on the sign-up list.
• Pitches will be allotted up to a couple minutes at the mic to introduce themselves, pitch projects, announce events, inform others of your skills, ideas, needs, seek interested partners, and so forth.
• Handouts can be left at a designated table and/or distributed prior to or following the program.

Projects & jobs can be born or forwarded here, so don’t miss this exciting opportunity to get onstage and make your pitch on Wednesday, June 13^th at Opal Divine’s.

Get there early to take advantage of Opal Divine’s Happy Hour which lasts until 7, then $3 “Three for Texas” beers the rest of the evening. And don’t cook or go anywhere else for a meal or snacks because Opal’s offers a tasty and largely locally-sourced menu of goodies.

We are extremely grateful to casting directors Sally Allen of Brock-Allen Casting and Donise L. Hardy, CSA of A Casting Place speaking on our Casting Directors Panel on Wednesday, May 9^th! These highly talented & experienced ladies shared their time, energy, and insights with us as they explained what casting directors need and expect, and then answered each question posed by our attendees with passion, humor, and clarity. Thank you, Donise & Sally!
