Subject: 2nd Annual New York PitchXchange - May27, 2005



scr(i)pt magazine Presents:
The 2nd Annual New York PitchXchange

Last year, over 30 executives (agents, managers, producers) attended the Inaugural New York PitchXchange to hear five-minute pitches from over 500 aspiring and working screenwriters.  Companies included Miramax Films, Dimension Films, MTV, Abrams Artist Agency, The Howard Stern Production Company and many others.

This year??™s the event will topple last year??™s. The first day offers a full-day seminar with Hollywood producer and ???Pitch King??? Robert Kosberg.  Attendees will have the opportunity to learn from the master and participate in a Q&A session.  The day wraps with Pitch Idol-- American Idol with a pitch.

On the second day, pitches will rain from the sky as writers pitch their best ideas, five minutes at a time.  In between pitches writers will have the chance to attend one-hour classes on subjects ranging from ???How to Writer a Query Letter??? to ???Writing a Great Opening.???  Throughout the entire weekend, one-on-one pitch coaching will also be available in 15-minute sessions.  Finally, writers and executives will party like rock-stars and have the chance to meet and mingle at out VIP Networking Party.

This year, we aim to create a sequel that surpasses the original.  Our readers have responded and the turnout spoke for itself; East Coast writers must have a way to access Hollywood without traveling 3,000 miles!  And, there is no better location than that of the East Coast??™s finest film program--New York University.

This year??™s event will take place over the weekend of June 10-11, 2005 and is sponsored by IFP, WGAe, Screenstyle, Drama Book Store, Cinewomen New York and Final Draft.
