What We Do
The Art of the Pitch: call for VC member/author for new written series
Hey all! In an effort to further spread the knowledge and help VCers navigate getting their stories sold and published, we're looking for a fabulous filmmaker/journalist (and of course, VC member) who'd be interested in volunteering their time to spearhead a written interview series called "The Pitch," which would publish on our new blog, "Field Notes."
"The Pitch" will be an ongoing (written) monthly series that dives into how best to pitch video journalism and doc pieces to great outlets around the world. Each blog post/piece, published monthly, will be themed around a specific outlet/market/distributor, and feature an interview with someone at that entity so they can shed light on what they're looking for and how best to pitch them.
The ideal author of this series (or first season of the series) is a wonderful writer and someone who can spend ~4 hours/month tackling this.
This is a great opportunity to make great industry connections and also position yourself as an industry mover & shaker/thought leader — and spread the knowledge and love to fellow makers.
We have the contacts. We just need you!
If interested, please send a note re: why, in addition to a writing sample or two, to communications@videoconsortium.org.
