Scriptchat TOPIC: Great American Pitchfest June 4 and 5, 2011
Great American Pitchfest is indeed a favorite of the scriptchat treefort, no denying that. Creators Signe Olynyk @Screenwriter12 and Bob Schultz @PitchfestBob guested to help answer questions about the event and share the big news that Robert McKee will be giving an all-day lecture on Saturday, June 4th. But have no fear, their free classes are still available all day Saturday, whether you attend the pitch sessions on Sunday or not. Read on and learn all the ins and outs. Remember, 3 out of the 5 treefort members will be there this year! We’d love to see scriptchat writers represented on the lines! Enjoy! @jeannevb
@PitchfestBob: Hello, Scriptchatters! I'm early, but happy to take any questions about GAPF or pitching in general or whatever. #scriptchat #scriptchat

@TyLeisher: @pitchfestbob Is it customary or has anyone ever brought in an index-card board to a pitch? Do you think it helps or hinders? #scriptchat
May 1, 2011, 11:52 pm
@PitchfestBob: @TyLeisher Any notes are cards can be a crutch, but a crutch is important if you have a bum leg. If you can pitch w/out it... #scriptchat
May 1, 2011, 11:54 pm
@PitchfestBob: @TyLeisher ... you should do so. It can distract execs, and it can hide your personality, which is as important as your script. #scriptchat
May 1, 2011, 11:55 pm
@TyLeisher: @PitchfestBob Gotcha :) How often will execs accept pitch meetings with an unknown writer outside of GAPF? Is it an agent thing? #scriptchat
May 1, 2011, 11:56 pm
@TyLeisher: @PitchfestBob Sorry if I'm bombarding you with Q's :P I cant stay all night so Im getting my stuff in asap #scriptchat
