Increase your own pitching prowess by watching brave producers pitch their project for kids aged 6-10 to our panel of decision-makers (not to mention a room full of other potential buyers, licensees, retailers, distributors and coproduction partners). Learn from the success stories, or learn from the rejection - either way you'll pick up do's and don'ts by watching it happen in real time.
The following pitches have been selected to be presented live at the KidScreen Summit:
Jackie Edwards, Producer, Mackinnon & Saunders - Frankenstein's Cat
Julie Fox, Managing Director, AWOL - Animated Windows on Life - Ozie Boo
John Rice, CEO, JAM Media Ltd - PICME
Jocelyn Stevenson, Chief Creative Officer, HIT Entertainment - "Ebods"
