MAKE YOUR BEST PITCH DECK

Applying to the Inaugural Originals List? Your pitch deck could make the difference between being nominated on the shortlist or not. Join Ellie Jamen (Wscripted Founder) and Marie Ballon (Film Producer, President of the Association of Young Producers) for a practical, hands-on workshop designed to help filmmakers and writers create or refine professional pitch decks—giving every applicant the opportunity to make a pitch deck that stands out to our Originals List reading committee and jury.

What You'll Learn

• How to structure a compelling pitch deck that tells your story visually

• Live walkthrough of Canva tools and templates

• Real-time workshopping of your deck directly on Canva

• Best practices from a founder who's reviewed thousands of applications

• How to make your project stand out to our celebrity jury

Important to Know

• We'll share a Canva template for you to continue editing, plus provide a one-pager on pitch deck best practices during the workshop.

• You don't need a finished pitch deck to apply to the Originals List—you can keep improving your deck until the April 30th deadline.

• Our reading committee reviews scripts through April, then evaluates pitch decks in May for shortlist qualification.

• Shortlisted projects work with mentors to refine their pitch decks before presentation to our celebrity jury, who select the finalists.
