Perhaps I'm in the wrong lounge, but taking advantage of this immense network of professionals, I'm Brazilian and I keep wondering: "I have a great idea, good drafts, and consistent feedback, but how do I actually present a pitch to a relevant figure in the market?"

If you look at the top toolbar, you'll find 'script services'. Let it open, and scroll down to pitch sessions. Hope that helps a bit!

Yep. That's what you're going to get if you don't already have industry contacts/networking under your belt.

You can use the pitch services on Stage 32 and pick a suitable executive. The feedback will be very useful to position your project in the marketplace. But just be cognizant of the fact that the chances of selling a spec are very low without a rep or a built-in audience. You can send an email to success@stage32.com, they'll recommend suitable executives to pitch your project to. My personal recommendation is to build relationships with producers and pitch to literary reps. Use the pitch services here to hone your pitching skills and then venture out to various film markets and festivals (locally and globally), get to know producers. If what you write is good and you understand market needs, you might get hired/commissioned for a project. Use your current writing as a CV and expand your portfolio. The alternative is to self-publish the animation on YouTube and build an audience there. Networking, productivity, persistence and tenacity are key.

1. Create a treatment based on your original work and register copyrights for both through copyright.gov. 2. Find a reputable agent. 3. Seek out pitch opportunities to directors/producers. Pitch to no one until both copyrights are registered and your have a signed representation agreement with a reputable agent.

Hey Lucas, this is Ashley from the Stage 32 team. I just wanted to let you know I moved your post from Authoring & Playwriting to Screenwriting, as it fits much better there. Let me know if you have any questions, and all the best to you!
