The side most creative training skips entirely.* Why pitching who you are matters as much as pitching your work* How to make money from what you love without feeling like you compromised it* How to solve a business problem with filmmaking skills* The three functions every creative business runs on, and which one you have been avoiding* What beliefs, inherited long before you ever picked up a camera, are quietly costing you opportunitiesThis is a working session, not a lecture. You will pitch out loud. You will meet the people who are strong where you are not.
